Letters to the Editor

Dear Editor, The missive by Mr. Robin Singh published in the September 10, 2019 edition of the Stabroek News captioned `How can the President not know of issues affecting production and profitability in the gold and diamond sectors’, is most malicious and riddled with inaccuracies.

Dear Editor, The comments by the PNCR-led Coalition government-nominated GECOM Commissioner, Vincent Alexander, as captured in the Guyana Chronicle report on Wednesday, September 11, 2019 – captioned ‘No space for polls this year’ – make it clear that the Parliamentary Opposition’s criticisms on the role of the government Commissioners at GECOM are valid.

Dear Editor, September 11 marked 18 years since the attack on the World Trade Center which resulted in the deaths of hundreds of people including around two dozen  Guyanese.

Dear Editor, The game between Jamaica Tallahwahs and St Kitts/Nevis Patriots (Tuesday,  Sept 10) in the current CPL season has to be the most exciting game to date and may very well be the game of the 2019 Season.

Dear Editor, I was delighted to read that GuySuCo is opening up a sugar trail for domestic and international tourists.

Dear Editor, Having issued no Amerindian land titles nor extensions since coming to office in May 2015, the Department of Public Information’s announcement on September 6th that the “Cabinet has given the green light for absolute grants of land titles for eight indigenous communities” must be met with a huge dose of cynicism.

Dear Editor, What can we learn from the most recent phase of the Brexit process in the UK?

Dear Editor, It is eighteen years later.  For me, over here now in sunstroke Guyana, it is yesterday. 

Dear Editor, A five-hour flight aboard a JetBlue aircraft from JF Kennedy International Airport in New York to Piarco airport in Trinidad on a one-way ticket, including baggage fees and taxes cost: US$214.

Dear Editor, December 21, 2018, March 31, June 18, July 12, August 31, and September 18, 2019, are important and significant dates since they will go down in history as a struggle to uphold the constitution and democracy in Guyana from a gang of chieftains within the machinery of the current caretaker APNU+AFC government.

Dear Editor, I was disturbed to read Dr Brian O’Toole still pleading for some action on his shooting seven months ago.

Dear Editor, Heartbreaking best describes the death of seven-year-old fire victim, Shaniya Persaud.

Dear Editor, Indicative of the government’s recognition of  Indigenous Peoples, practising our true Native culture, something ‘Indigenous’ must have been the input in composing the theme, “Maintaining our Traditional  Practices while promoting a Green Economy.”

Dear Editor, Reference your news item quoting GECOM commissioners as saying that the body may not be ready for elections before March 2020.

Dear Editor, If our leaders, political, religious and community cannot develop the culture to sit and talk things through, we will certainly be on that prophetic path of self-destruction.
