Dear Editor,
Is there another country on planet earth where the mere sight of a Guyana Power and Light bill (GPL Bill) increases hypertension, diarrhoea, heart attacks and other unpleasant response except Guyana, the land of many waters that should have been generating electricity at the minimum rate.
The effects of the incredible electricity rates are enough to close the few remaining businesses and small industries and are a stumbling block to new larger ones.
May something be done and quickly to address this monstrosity not only on businesses but on the small man’s meagre wages as the percentage expended on electricity bills is unfair and ill affordable. Is it not the highest in the world?
Yours faithfully,
M. Sookraj
