We must also remember Jonestown

Dear Editor,

Junior Minister, Ministry of Social Protect-ion – Department of Labour, Simona Broomes’ firm and decisive action against Asian logging giant, Ban Shanlin, must be commended.

We cannot have or condone an expatriate company disrespecting a minister or our labour laws. We saw what happened at the bauxite company in Linden. Good for you Minister Broomes.

November is Remem-brance Month. While we remember our fallen heroes of two World Wars, we must also remember 1978 ‒ Jim Jones, Jonestown and 900 souls.

Yours faithfully,
Shamshun Mohamed
