Letters to the Editor

Playing host to former world leaders

Dear Editor, Guyana’s profile as a significant player on the international stage is being further enhanced with the visits of two former world leaders, Tony Blair of Great Britain and Bill Clinton of the United States.

Maduro’s end game and elections

Dear Editor, Following the “Barbados Agreement” signed last October by the Venezuelan Opposition and Government representatives to facilitate “free and fair elections” and the US easing   sanctions on oil, gas and gold, I noted that “Maduro has raised the ante on their border controversy (with us) to counter the political challenge he faces next year after the economic and social implosions.”

Cost oil allotments

Dear Editor, Article 11 of 2016 Production Sharing Agreement (PSA) states “cost oil is limited in any month to an amount which equals 75% of the total production from the contract area for such month”.

The exuberance of Holi

Dear Editor, In the colonial days in Guyana, it was customary for Hindus on the sugar estates to build a huge bonfire with debris accumulated from the cane field.

Guyana cannot rely on a desperate Maduro to honour his word and it must be prepared to address the consequences of his actions regarding Essequibo

Dear Editor, The very essence of democracy is that there should be a duly elected government representing a majority vote of eligible voters and a functioning Opposition representing a minority vote of the eligible voters sitting across the table in the National Assembly (Parliament or Congress) debating the rights and wrongs of the governing of the nation in the full view and hearing of the entire country, covered by a free media.
