Dear Editor,
Since you and Mr. Lall did not get a chance to visit the NIS $69M office at Corriverton, let me brief you on what I saw, and am seeing as a worker there.
You may have noticed that the frame work of all doors; that is the wooden uprights that make the door entrances, are all made of second or third quality wood.
They have very rough surfaces even though brown paint is applied to them.
The building is much smaller than the previous one which was two stories.
Therefore, staff space is limited. No two nurses can be accommodated in the Medical Department; that is with their individual furniture.
This was not the case in the previous building.
With this information, you can see why the media, especially Kaieteur News is not allowed to see the building thoroughly.
A comparison is made to the Metro building in New Amsterdam, which was just recently completed and occupied. The contractor, Godfrey Cowden indicated that the building cost Metro $60M.
It is a two storey building, longer than the NIS building in Corriveton, and it is more stylish. Check this out! Honest worker
