Letters to the Editor

Dear Editor, Now that the Linden Commission of Inquiry has handed in its report, there is wondering in some quarters as to what is contains and what happens next. 

Dear Editor, It was some time during the early-mid 1970s that I enjoyed watching a movie titled The Sting, the thrust and cut of which was an elaborate scheme by some people to con, steal or rob others of their money.

Dear Editor, The Guyana Defence Force notes the publication of a letter in the February 20 edition of Kaieteur News, purportedly written by one Kishan Ganesh who claims to have been rejected for admission to the Force’s Standard Officers’ Course (‘The Commodore’s mockery of Jagan’s education ideals’).

Dear Editor, Is GT&T the best value in Guyana? It certainly doesn’t appear that way for Berbicians.

Dear Editor, A recent statement by Mr Clinton Urling, President of the Georgetown Chamber of Commerce and Industry (GCCI) which indicated that security expenditures had of late been a burden on the business community, has not gone down well with some members of the security industry.

Dear Editor, A friend encouraged me to read Mr Ralph Ramkarran’s article from last Sunday’s edition of SN, which was titled, ‘Repairing Guyana’s broken system of government.’ 

Dear Editor, Much of Berbice experienced DSL ‘blackout’ from Monday afternoon into Tuesday evening.

Dear Editor, As a former Member of Parliament, I have been paying keen interest to the National Assembly’s no-confidence motion on Mr Clement Rohee as Minister of Home Affairs, and the subsequent gagging in this capacity after the PPP administration refused to respect the House’s no-confidence vote.

Dear Editor, I have been doing loan repayments with NBS for a number of years and I hadn’t any cause to complain of the service by the staff members.

Dear Editor, I am reading with disgust about the crime situation in Guyana and how the police are incapable of finding a solution to this problem.

Dear Editor, When Mr Eusi Kwayana fires, his aim is not to disarm but to ensure specific objectives are achieved.

Dear Editor, According to Alliance for Change (AFC) Member of Parliament Mrs Valerie Lowe, an invasion of acoushi ants is destroying farming areas in Moruka.

Dear Editor, The antics of this government and its apologists who have been engaged in defending the perverse agreement to grant the contractor carte blanche approval to import wholesale the entire manpower requirement for the construction of the Marriott Hotel, would have been sublime comedy were it not for the serious matter of the denial of scores Guyanese tradesmen the opportunity of earning a livelihood in their native land.

Dear Editor, Permit me the grace of your indulgence to express a view on this vexed issue of C’de Rohee’s participation in the National Assembly or as it may be more appropriately described as the House of unlawful assembly, the actions therein having come full circle after the recent walk-out of Speaker Trotman under whose baleful influence the current imbroglio was charted.

Dear Editor, Over the last few weeks I have publicly declared my concern about the electro-magnetic spectrum.

Dear Editor, I would like to draw to the attention of the Commissioner of Police the plight of minibus operators on the 32 route from Georgetown to Parika.

Dear Editor, I refer to a Stabroek News report dated February 12 and titled ‘Sports policy is being implemented’ where Minister Anthony was quoted as saying, “The sports policy was completed in 2010…” Dr Anthony talks continuously about this National Sports Policy but when asked to produce it, he does not.

Dear Editor, Reference is made to Vishnu Bisram’s SN, February 19 letter, ‘There should be respect for the minority by the Speaker in Parliament,’ in response to mine ‘The House has to be guided by laws, standard practices and an agenda and not how a Speaker feels about a situation’ (SN, February 16).
