Letters to the Editor

A positive legacy

Dear Editor, It is still possible for ex-President Jagdeo to leave a positive legacy to the nation which he served so articulately these last ten years.

Sarwan seems ill-advised, lost or misguided

Dear Editor, I have been an ardent follower and admirer of Ronnie Sarwan ever since his Test debut against Pakistan in 2000, and have been mesmerized by his undoubted class which has gained the admiration of no less than Ted Dexter, Viv Richards and a host of other cricket cognoscenti around the world.

Video clip was what the Capitol News camera recorded

Dear Editor, I have been asked to reply to P Harris in a letter to your newspaper that accuses Capitol News of airing a 10-second video clip of children in a school during the recent police crackdown on peaceful protestors that the letter described as “not genuine” and a “fake.”

Is it not time to commend Gecom for a job well done?

Dear Editor, Now that the integrity of the election has been established, and  vouched for by impartial observers, is it not time to commend the Chairman of Gecom, the six Commissioners from the governing party and the opposition, the Chief Elections Officer and the staff of Gecom for a job very well and devotedly done, deserving the nation’s thanks? 

There should be national unity

Dear Editor, Now that, after what seemed an eternity, the final results are in and the winner declared, I wish to extend congratulations to President Donald Ramotar and the PPP/C.

Ramkarran should be retained as Speaker

Dear Editor, It is heartening to read your front page headline news (SN, Dec 8) that four individuals (one each from the PPP and APNU and two from the AFC) are interested in being the Speaker of the new parliament which will be constituted very soon as well as the news item that the Speaker will be selected by consensus (SN, Dec 9).

Bisram got it wrong

Dear Editor, Now that some of the elections’ debris seems to be settling, I thought it might be a good time to review Vishnu Bisram’s pre-elections poll findings and compare these with how the electorate actually voted on November 28.

A dark day

Dear Editor, Tuesday, December 6, 2011 will go down as a dark day in the political annals of Guyana.
