Letters to the Editor

Dear Editor, My first meeting with Philip Moore was actually in the 1940s through his carvings which were on show at the League of Coloured Peoples’ Fair held annually in the Promenade Gardens.

Dear Editor, What took place in Kwakwani this past week makes quite clear that politics is raising its ugly head in the government of local communities.

Dear Editor, In SN letters of May 10 and 22 respectively, Mr Hergash and Ms Bacchus have expressed what I may argue are some conflicting and contradictory perspectives with respect to the historic development of Indian-Guyanese education over the years (‘Indian-Guyanese have been keen on education since the 1920s and 1930s’; ‘The PNC’s policies made education accessible for all’).

Dear Editor, I was enjoying my read of Sunday Stabroek weekly columnist Ian McDonald.

 Dear Editor, On May 16 my letter was published Stabroek News, complaining that an auto dealer has about 100 vehicles parked on the Enmore Blossom Scheme playfield and is preventing children from having use of the field.

Dear Editor, I wish to thank the writer of the SN editorial, ‘IMCs,’ (May 27), for helping to define President Donald Ramotar’s reference to “village economies,“ which the President uttered during his Independence Day speech.

Dear Editor, When you read the print media or listen to news reports on the TV, you cannot escape noticing the increasing negatives engaged in by the young in our society: robbery, rape, possession of narcotics, break and enter and larceny, murder, dangerous driving etc, etc. 

Dear Editor, The Stabroek News is noticeably biased against those who do not agree with their editorials and political line.  Most

Dear Editor, We Guyanese, it seems, are eternally destined to disagree about everything.

Dear Editor, Recently in the news it was reported that the Prime Minister of Trinidad and Tobago had fallen ill, which led to concerns about the vice-presidency situation in Guyana.

Dear Editor, In October last year on the occasion of the 90th birthday of the recently deceased Philip Moore, the African Cultural and Development Association (ACDA) held an activity at his home in Berbice to thank the creator and our ancestors who combined to bless us with his indomitable presence for just over 90 years.

Dear Editor, Firstly we must thank NCN for opening the door to views other than those perceived to be pro-PPP.

Dear Editor, I wrote a recent letter to the media expressing grave disquiet regarding the wanton destruction of our environment, particularly as it relates to our waterways in Guyana.

Dear Editor, It was already anticipated that the PPP/C was going to attempt to use every possible legal and political manoeuvre in order to block parliamentary consideration of the pensions and other retirement benefits that former president Bharrat Jagdeo is scheduled to receive.

Dear Editor, Over the past few weeks the reports in the daily papers seem not to have shocked us sufficiently to elicit outrage and concern about our young people and senseless violence.

Dear Editor, Given what has played out in local politics after the British politicos left Guyana in May 1966, I can’t really think of anything significant which we can celebrate, thus rendering any thought of a 46th anniversary celebration one more of symbolism than of substance.

Dear Editor, Forty-six years of independence celebrated. Who is really free in this Magnificent Province? 

Dear Editor, A few days ago I read two interesting items: One was a response to a letter by Lincoln Lewis written by Prime Minister Samuel Hinds, ‘Boilers, steam turbines, alternators are still in the steam power station in Linden (SN, May 11), and the other was, ‘Life and death at Linden by AA Fenty (SN, February 7, 1997), in which he described a picture of gloom, despair and lost sense of hope.

Dear Editor, We are a group of women who are concerned for our girl children in Lethem, Tabatinga and St Ignatius.

Dear Editor, Many thanks for publishing my letter in SN’s issue of Monday, May 21, 2012 (‘A policeman has the power to arrest “any person he has good cause to suspect”‘).
