Dear Editor,
To the President and Vice President of Guyana, in the lobby of Wells Fargo Bank in San Francisco USA is an original Stagecoach (yes, the ones used in Western Movies), it still has four wheels after 150 years.
Dear Editor,
I feel severely tempted and figuratively speaking, to put on my armour plate to do battle against the forces of evil standing like gladiators waiting to destroy the independence many of us fought for decades ago.
Dear Editor,
I am writing to express my sincere appreciation for Vice President Jagdeo’s recent response regarding the US$50 million dispute with CH4/Lindsayca and its potential impact on the US EXIM Bank $660 million loan process.
Dear Editor,
I note that big people in Guyana have had their say on school violence (“CEO, McDonald weigh in on school fights, language barriers facing Venezuelan students”, SN April 19, 2024, refers).
Dear Editor,
I read Ras Marcus` letter, in the Stabroek News, of April 20, 2024 captioned: “Afro-Guyanese groups skeptical of Alexander’s attempts to sway public opinion”.
If this is not to say that the recent collapse of the roof of the Stabroek Market wharf was, in considerable measure, the result of years of official inattention to its progressive deterioration, there was little doubt that the first official government response to the occurrence would have been to make the ‘political point’ about the tragedy occurring on the municipal ‘watch’ of an APNU-led local government administration.
Dear Editor,
Monday April 22 marks eighteen years since the assassination of Minister Satyadeow ‘Sash’ Sawh, two of his siblings and his security guard.
Dear Editor,
The Government of Guyana needs to increase the budgetary allocation for technical education by 300%, especially for direct skills training if it is serious about creating jobs for our people.
Dear Editor,
Reference is made to an article carried in the Stabroek News edition of April 21, 2024, with the caption “AFC calls for gov’t nominees on PPC to step down over Tepui decision”.
Can it possibly be the case that the historic constitutional reforms of over two decades ago conceived of a Public Procurement Commission (PPC) that would be toothless?
Dear Editor,
It is understandable that Guyanese people should feel euphoria over the discovery of oil in our waters and the prospects which this presents, but what this means for our future is an open question.
