Letters to the Editor

Dear Editor, I have duly noted the press release issued by the Speaker of the National Assembly, in which he accused me of being ‘mischievous’ for submitting a motion to discuss oil spill liability coverage, and for ‘grandstanding’ and ‘playing to an audience’.

Dear Editor, Never in my wildest dreams could I have imagined that I would have to be writing to put on record the lack of decency, transparency, accountability, and fairness by the Guyana Press Association (GPA), an organisation that all citizens and my colleagues should trust as the guardians of such principles.

Dear Editor, Recently, readers have been supplied with many comments concerning the ratings of our country Guyana in the international concept of freedom of expression as represented by the newspapers.

Dear Editor, A recent interview on Al Jazeera with the IMF Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva was spot on in how the strategy of the IMF is structured.

Dear Editor, Remember I am saying so from today: this contentious Guyana Press Association one ain’t over, baby. 

Dear Editor, It has been noted that there appears to be an increasing number of assaults (beating) of Police Officers while conducting their duty of maintaining public order in the country.

Dear Editor, Oil spills are the release of crude oil (or refined petroleum products) from wells, rigs, offshore platforms and tankers.

Dear Editor, Universities in the Caribbean contain language units, centres or departments, some of which teach Hindi, the traditional language of about one million persons of Asian Indian descent in the region.

Dear Editor, There are many unflattering descriptions that are attributed to politicians but that which should be attributed to Vice President Jagdeo aces them all.

Dear Editor, I have read many negative comments surrounding the usage of the electric bikes.

Dear Editor, Many of us had come to enjoy the series started just a century ago entitled: “Believe it, or Not” by Ripley.

Dear Editor, Young Guyanese politicians need to upgrade their economic management skills to be able to manage a US$30billion plus Guyana economy.

Dear Editor, It is ironic that Guyana, one of the world’s leading ‘green’ nations, an oil-producing nation with zero net emissions, a seller of carbon credits, has an ‘environmental’ issue nationally; I speak of the group of ‘Environmental activists’ in our midst who are seeking to derail our oil economy.

Dear Editor, If I were in the GoG, I’d insist Exxon sign the PCG letter agreeing to Full Liability Coverage.

Dear Editor, Reading all these news items surrounding Ms. Mae Thomas, the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Home Affairs, has confirmed that Jagdeo might be politically astute locally but strategically unwise globally.

Dear Editor, Kindly permit me a space in your newspaper to highlight a sloppy road work done in Middle Road (East of Hunter Street) by a contractor of the Ministry of Public Works.

Dear Editor, In the field of healthcare, the term ‘SPECIALTY HOSPITAL’ is defined as a hospital or the specialty unit of a general hospital licensed to provide limited range of services in specific areas such as cardiology and heart surgery, gastroenterology, gynecology, obstetrics, neurology, orthopedics, ophthalmology, oncology, pediatrics, psychiatry, urology, etc.

Dear Editor, Climate change caused many unpredictable disasters to hit Guyana for several years, and as a result, it puts an economic dent into the average man and whilst help is offered, it cannot compensate for the losses incurred.

Dear Editor, With equity and equality being the latest watchwords of the Ministry of Guyana what else should we expect but improvements in the education sector?
