Dear Editor,
I refer to recent letters and articles carried in the news, which seek to discredit the statement made by Major General (Rtd) Joseph Singh on the GECOM fiasco, and his appeal to President Granger to help resolve this situation that is now an international embarrassment for Guyanese.
Major General Rtd Joe Singh is among the few people in this country who are stalwarts of development through environmental protection and conservation. Unlike him, few can boast of having served Guyana with similar professionalism, integrity and perhaps most importantly, impartiality. Through his years of principled dedication to Guyana, he has earned the respect of his peers and like-minded professionals of calibre, who have come to value the credibility and balance of his expert opinion. So when a giant like the Major General who throughout his life remained apolitical, is forced to pronounce on the political situation of a country he has with his own hands helped to shape, Guyanese should have the decency and sense to listen.
Yours faithfully,
Anna Correia De Sá
