Letters to the Editor

Dear Editor, The issue of denial of state ads to Stabroek News is back in the news not only in Guyana but around the Caribbean region as well.

Dear Editor, I just read a report in your newspaper that a woman assaulted a cop in the station compound.

Dear Editor, I refer to a letter by Mr Ivelaw Whittaker, Public Relations and Press Officer of the Guyana Police Force captioned “The actions taken by the police are not linked to any political direction or control” (08.03.16).

Dear Editor, I have listened to various statements about rising food prices both internationally and locally and I believe that the Government now needs to issue licences for more persons to import flour especially.

Dear Editor, A dramatic increase in the price of local commodities in Region #2 which stretches from Pomeroon to Supenaam is making it hard for the residents to cope with the escalation in the cost of living.

Dear Editor, I recently visited the Lethem Immigration Office to have my passport renewed.

Dear Editor, The letter columns of the Guyana Chronicle are usually infested with letters defending the Government and in the edition of 18/3/2008 there were two in relation to VAT which show how little the defenders really know.

Dear Editor, Dr. Luncheon’s statement is a welcome assurance to our citizens that they can vote using their old ID cards.

Dear Editor, Today I was shown an invitation card to the Good Friday Exercise by “the Christian Community”.

Dear Editor, I congratulate the Dalai Lama for his “peaceful” condemnation of China’s communist government and its efforts to suppress religious autonomy.

Dear Editor, I always wonder if Frank Fyffe is the only person in Linden who has eyes and a pen to see and observe what’s happening in our community and let the various authorities come out of the dark and wake up and do their work.

Dear Editor, With the present unrest in Tibet and the China Olympic celebrations just a few weeks away, I think I ought to let readers have a follow-up of my recent experience, particularly those intending to visit that part of the world in the near future.

Dear Editor, At this stage in our country everyone should support the efforts of the members of our joint services.

Dear Editor, Ideally, I do not venture into areas in which I am ignorant.

Dear Editor, Despite my many years of residence in Guyana, I have never been able to determine whether the name of the tree and the delicious fruit which it bears is ‘downs’, ‘dungs’ or ‘dunks’!

Dear Editor, Community Polic-ing Groups is a bright idea but as I have said before the concepts have to be widened.

Dear Editor, Some time in the 70s, Justice Ivan Churaman, took evidence at the Mahaica Magistrate’s Court from persons living in the Mahaica area and made them surrender their transports for their properties and Titles were issued.

Dear Editor, I support Dr Roger Luncheon’s view that GECOM must “come clean” about the reason for their rejection of identity documents, principally previously issued national identification (ID) cards.

Dear Editor, Since Independence, the theme of racism/ethnicity has dominated our national dialogue and our common culture.

Dear Editor, A now familiar state of “normalcy” graces Guyana. The inklings of a soft peace abound in a number of forums.
