Dear Editor,
In the mid to late fifties it was taken as a given that hugely “overpopulated”
countries were doomed to economic failure as Malthus had asserted with
certainty. It took some fifty years before serious questions were raised about
that belief.
It is really difficult today to see the West Indies with its handful of people
winning consistently in international sport unless some really thorough
re-engineering is instituted. Let`s hope.
Yours faithfully,
R Pitt
