Letters to the Editor

Time to call it a draw?

Dear Editor, Is the spat between David Dabydeen and Ruel Johnson over the Caribbean Press a strictly private one or can others join in?

Independence goals and objectives

Dear Editor, Another Independence anniversary has just passed. I need to remind fellow Guyanese citizens and other observers that independence is merely the achievement of political freedom by a country in order to pursue and establish its own socio-economic and cultural goals and objectives.

Believe it or not…

Dear Editor, The situation in Guyana certainly makes us a rather unusual place – just look at events in Guyana over the past two decades.

Is this the PPP?

Dear Editor, The socialist political heritage of the PPP when they were in opposition was parked temporarily by a very aware Cheddi Jagan, who recognized that the world had moved on to one where there was only one superpower ‒ the USA. 

Guyana needs modern local government legislation

Dear Editor, Guyana is not unique in having among its population persons who, one day can be quite rational, and seemingly even progressive, yet occasionally these very folks set off into unreasonableness and flights of sheer fancy.

It is unbelievable that Jamaica and T&T cannot cut the apron strings to the Privy Council

Dear Editor, Ever since the inauguration of the Caribbean Court of Justice (CCJ) in April 2005, and even before that, after its establishment in February 2001, I have been calling on regional leaders to abolish appeals from the Privy Council and accept the CCJ as the final court, but unfortunately the pleas are unheeded and so far only three countries, Guyana, Barbados and Belize have joined.
