Letters to the Editor

This has been a test of restraint, sanctions are now needed

Dear Editor, One more day! This has been the strategy of the Granger cabal since 21st December 2018; one more day in power; one more day to file a legal challenge; one more day to spend; one more day to bankrupt us; one more day to sell state assets; one more day to plunder; one more day to frustrate the will of the people; one more day to defy all those who seek to keep the peace and restore democracy (for it has been lost).

Lowenfield’s letter trampled on the authority of Justice Singh

Dear Editor, The letter dated July 10, 2010 from Mr. Keith Lowenfield, Chief Executive Officer of the Guyana Elections Commission to the first female Chairperson of the Guyana Elections Commission, trampled on the authority of Justice Claudette Singh, with the utmost disdain and disrespect in this unending nightmare, stemming from Guyana’s General and Regional Elections held on March 2, 2020.

Chinese govt governs Hong Kong in accordance with China’s Constitution and the Basic Law, not the Joint Declaration

Dear Editor, On June 30, the Law of the People’s Republic of China on Safeguarding National Security in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) was passed by China’s top legislature, the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress (NPC), added to the list of national laws in Annex III to the Basic Law of the HKSAR, and applied locally by the Chief Executive of the HKSAR.

GECOM Chair should not tolerate any further delays

Dear Editor, Following the welcomed Caribbean Court of Justice’s decision on the 8th of July, 2020, it is now for Gecom and essentially its Chairwoman to act swiftly in concluding the exhaustingly lengthy Elections which has been prolonged for in excess of four months causing grave distress to our nation, in accordance with the recount results.

There should be no further impediments to the declaration

Dear Editor, As was expected, the Caribbean Court of Justice (CCJ) overturned the controversial majority decision of Justices Brassington Reynolds and Dawn Gregory in the Application brought by Eslyn David to, among other things, ostensibly interpret s.177(2)(b) of the Constitution of the Co-operative Republic of Guyana.

NICIL’s attitude to sugar industry very worrying

Dear Editor, As I with great anxiety awaited certainly what would be a monumental ruling of the Caribbean Court of Justice (CCJ), I began to reflect on the shame the Coalition had brought us and the ignoble legacy that it has bequeathed to all Guyanese.

ERC working to de-escalate tensions

Dear Editor, The Ethnic Relations Commission (ERC), once again, wishes to lend its voice to the call for peace and responsible behaviour by all as the nation awaits the final declaration of the March 02, 2020, General and Regional Elections.

How about valid and invalid runs?

Dear Editor, If more votes do not mean more valid votes, then in a cricket match a victory by say 60 runs more should be questioned on the ground that 60 runs are not 60 valid runs.
