The white collar criminals among us

Mar 13, 2012 Letters

 

 

Mr Editor,
Perpetrators  of  white collar  crimes  are  usually  better educated, are less  often  sentenced  to  imprisonment and are often  not  prosecuted by  the  system  of  criminal  justice.
Politicians  and  Government  employees  may  obtain  illegal  financial gains  by  furnishing favours  as  is  evident  by  the  numerous  disclosures  of  embezzlements  and  frauds  unearthed  by  the  viligance  and  efficiency  of  the  opposition.
The  multitudinous  amount  of  dishonest  and  barefaced  acts  committed  on  hard  working  tax payers  by   these  organized  white  collar  criminals,  will  be  recorded  as  the  most  devastating  assault  on  our  treasury  by  a  bunch  of  shameless  and  remorseless  thieves.
This contagion  is  transmitted  to  every  region, and to the  NDCs and Regional Democratic Council.  In  many  instances  there  are  no  records  available  for  perusal  and  scrutiny.
Similarly,  treatment  must  be  meted  out  to  regional  officials, in  that  they who  are  found  wanting  should  be  hauled  before  the  relevant  authorities,  to  account  for  monies  received  and  spent  during  their  tenure.
The  unsightly  surroundings  in  some  regions  spell  volumes  and  it is  time  to  clean  up  these  Administrations,  beginning  with  Central  Government  and  by  extension  the  regional  officials.
A healthy  environment  will  rehabilitate  diseased  minds.
Babu  John  appears  to  be  the  place  where  the  leaders  of  the  PPP/C  become  demonized  in  their  relentless  and  unwarranted  assault  on  their  adversaries.
These  dishonorable  cuss birds show total disrespect  for  someone  they  claim  to  idolize  and  embrace  his  legacies.  There  are  two  contrasting  pictures  of  the  two  political  parties  in  the  honoring  of  their  founder  leaders.  At the  seven  ponds  lie  the  remains  of  individuals  of   high  moral  standards  and  as  such  their  memory  must  be  an  embodiment  of  such.
Dr  Jagan  did  not  spend  his  political  life carping about  and  demeaning  his  rivals. It  is  evident that those  he  left  behind  not  only  do him  a  disservice  but  would  never  learn.
