Letters to the Editor

Dear Editor, On Monday, December 28, I went to a store in Commerce Street to make a purchase.

Dear Editor, The Guyana Bauxite & General Workers Union (GB&GWU) has nothing to hide.

Dear Editor, I am appealing, no pleading for our dumb, four-legged animals (dogs) who on all festive occasions are subject to an onslaught from the deafening noise of squibs and firecrackers.

Dear Editor, It was simply a favourable response to a crying need and a demonstration of the seriousness of the government when they announced that they believed in the promotion of an entrepreneurial class in furthering the full development of the economy and its people.

Dear Editor, I refer to Michael Tannassee’s thoughtful and well intended letter titled, ‘Condem-nations should be accompanied by solutions’ (SN, December 29), and offer the following in response.

Dear Editor, Two points surfaced in your very comprehensive editorial ‘Guyana and the Copenhagen Accord’ (SN, December 28). 

Dear Editor, Your report (December 20) on the former national cricketer Colin Wiltshire who died in Trinidad recently, included a most meaningful recollection of his only son Garfield Wiltshire about his father’s admonition on the importance of education for a sportsman growing up.

Dear Editor, I read with great elation that the Guyana Gold and Diamond Miners Association is calling on miners to meet and exceed this year’s target of 300,000+ ounces of gold (it does not state what the target is for diamonds).

Dear Editor, The Bauxite Company Guyana Inc’s (BCGI) denial in its ‘Information Memorandum to the Public’ that it did not dismiss workers because they are members of the Guyana Bauxite & General Workers Union (GB&GWU) is far from the truth.

Dear Editor, When someone who lived a reasonably long and productive life passes on we do not mourn, we rejoice and are glad that we had such a person among us.

Dear Editor, I am in complete agreement with the findings of Mark Jewel as expressed in his letter captioned, ‘Freddie misunderstands Misir’s and Persaud’s motive’ (KN, December 29).

Dear Editor, I am a patriotic Guyanese who has been living overseas since 1981, but I love my country and want it to prosper.

Dear Editor, The Annandale/Riverstown Neigh-bourhood Democratic Council in Region Two cannot be excused for the disarray in the Suddie Market area which falls under its control, because of its failure to deal with vendors there.

Dear Editor, I decided to re-visit Bartica after being away for approximately five years.

Dear Editor, Many of my friends, aquaintances and business associates may have read in the Kaieteur News on December 17 an article captioned ‘Businessman suffers as a result of GRA corruption  -purchased unregistered vehicle,’ which involved a vehicle I had sold before leaving Guyana for the UK.

Dear Editor, During my silent moments as I contemplate the way Guyana is being governed, I am taken back to what I read some years ago written by HG Wells.

Dear Editor, The Upper Corentyne road is of very poor quality.

Dear Editor, I am shocked at the clumsiness of the presenters of sports news on NCN radio and television.

Dear Editor, Reference is made to the article, `Union urges govt intervention in impasse with bauxite company’ Stabroek News, December 25, 2009.

Dear Editor, In your news item, ‘Jagdeo upbeat on climate $$,’ (December 25, 2009), it struck me as quite odd when it was reported that ‘Guyana is likely to benefit from funds assigned at the recent Climate Change Summit in Copenhagen’.
