The hassled hassar?

Dear Editor,

Intriguing as your Sunday (April 15) editorial’s uncovering of the “undercover hassar“ was, it somehow seemed to relate to a larger mystery, in that no mention was made of the role of the Regional Administration in this project of despond, loosely termed as ‘aquaculture’ which, according to the current national budget, ‘falls’ within the Ministry of Agriculture. Except that in the instant case one must wonder whether the Ministry of Amerindian Affairs ever communicated with the Ministry of Agriculture who, as the respective regional budgets show, has made no provision for agricultural development in Region 1, and for that matter in Regions 7, 8 and 10.

Or is one making too much of a hassle over a little hassar?

Incidentally there is a Regional Coordinator operating in Region 1, on behalf of one of the units of the Guyana Livestock Develop-ment Authority, also apparently without the knowledge of that Region’s administration.

Yours faithfully,
E B John
