Previous Jonestown projects of a commercial nature were rejected

Dear Editor,

As one of two persons who was involved in several aspects of Jonestown that is still alive, and who Forbes Burnham assigned the responsibility to deal with the many post Jonestown tragedy events, I absolutely support the contents of the letter titled “No justifiable comparison between Auschwitz Memorial and what Ms. Sewcharran plans for Jonestown,” published in today’s Stabroek News December 18, 2024 written by Kit Nasciemento. May I add that it is not the first time that private sector developers have sought to use this human tragedy for money-making.  It was rejected then for good reasons.

Sincerely,

Hamilton Green

Elder
