Dear Editor,
On September 6 last year I wrote a piece in the Stabroek News about the importance of the appointment of judges to the Appellate Circuit Courts in the United States and I was criticized by a few who asked what was the relevance to Guyanese.
Dear Editor,
It has always baffled me why in the twenty-first century influential cricket people, especially in the West Indies, the region that is the chief victim of old-fashioned thinking about the game, could not recognize how invidious distinctions between the long and shorter versions have been inhibiting progress internationally in this sport they claim to love.
Dear Editor,

Dear Editor,
I am pretty sure that the MAPM is both flabbergasted and amused by Mayor Chase-Green’s contrite invitation to a ‘consultative’ meeting today at 10am.

The parking meters ignominy is the latest episode in a running narrative of President David Granger’s dull and disappointing leadership of the coalition government, and it does not bode well for Guyana and most Guyanese that this performance is playing right into the come-back plan of the PPP led by the politically restive Bharrat Jagdeo.
Dear Editor,
The Guyana Police Force is responding to a letter in Stabroek News of February 9 under the caption ‘The possibility of “ghosting” police stats exists’.
Dear Editor,

Dear Editor,
I am writing this letter to appeal to the relevant authority to revisit the line markings on the westbound carriageway of Carifesta Avenue.
Dear Editor,
As the rollout of the meters expanded from the heart of the city outwards, the teachers of Bishops’ High School suddenly realised they would have to pay approximately thirty-two thousand dollars per month to park in front of the said school.
Dear Editor,
When Bartica was identified by President David Granger to be Guyana’s first Green Town, it meant that any and every new green initiative should be modelled first in Bartica.
Dear Editor,
Despite the slowdown in revenue opportunities in City Hall bequeathed by a bankrupt leadership under Hammie Green for which he is being rewarded by the Granger administration with a $20 million annual pension, the city government was not as cantankerous then as it is today.
Dear Editor,
The frequent outbursts about a lack of financial resources by those at the helm of the city council are indeed clever attempts aimed at excusing themselves from culpability for council’s failure to provide the services it is required to deliver to citizens in return for the rates and taxes they pay.
Dear Editor,
