Dear Editor, The International Monetary Fund (IMF) compiles and releases an annual list of countries and their Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita.

Dear Editor, I perused the recent list of police sergeants promoted to inspectors by the Police Service Commission.

Dear Editor, New evidence now suggests that the Indus Valley Civilisation, famous for its meticulously planned cities and impressive crafts, predates Egypt and Mesopotamia, with some signs of settlements dating back to over 9,200 years BP (before present). 

Dear Editor, Given the turmoil in West Indies cricket, and the unwillingness among the top brass to see any connection between mind and body, it seemed natural that victory in the first game would be followed by a horrible performance in the second.

Dear Editor, In reference to the article captioned ‘NCN didn’t bill PPP/C for millions owed for political ads, audit finds’ published on page 3 of your June 4 issue, which gives the impression that our agency is indebted to NCN and might have benefited from debt write-offs, I wish to clarify that all our payments to this entity are current and at no time did we request or were granted debt write-offs.

Dear Editor, He was a legend in his time, and one of that even rarer breed: a legend towering over other legends. 

Dear Editor, Director Conde Riley’s recent castigation of the cricket legends’ support for the Special Committee’s recommendation to dissolve the WICB was in my opinion insensitive, insulting and clearly depicts the arrogance and disdain of that group of persons on the WICB who believe that they are the owners of Caribbean cricket. 

Dear Editor, World Environment Day (WED) is celebrated globally on June 5 to create awareness of environmental issues and encourage action from all levels of society.
