Arrogance and downright disdain for the average working class Guyanese
Dear Editor,
I was, as my daily routine, reading your newspaper before I go off to work.
In the process of doing so I happened to come across an article ‘Jagan justifies his employment at OP’.
I was somewhat amazed but more amused at the author’s arrogance and downright disdain for the average working class Guyanese who work hard every day to put a meal on their tables.
Don’t get me wrong, the right and honourable Cheddi Berret Jagan II, Esq., definely has a right to justify his employment, but the language used was quite abrasive, unprofessional and unbecoming of an unqualified lawyer. From his narrative, the average man may get the impression that he is of some world renown – a well sought after professor who forsakes a brighter future in America to serve the lowly populace of Guyana. This may be so, which I do doubt, but that is not the way to announce yourself to the world.
After reading this unqualified lawyer’s letter I do have a few questions for him
1. How many job offers have you had in America that you walked away from to serve your country?
2. What is the unemployment rate of unqualified lawyers like yourself in America?
3. What is the pass rate of candidates in your ‘world hardest’ exam at the first attempt?
4. Were you in the minority or the majority in failing at your first attempt?
In closing I will state that it is the arrogance of people like the honourable Cheddi Jagan II, Esq., that is responsible for many qualified Guyanese leaving.
Finally, I do wonder if his Majesty can help me in my application in renouncing my Guyanese citizenship.
I sent my application over a year ago and paid the required £100.00 but I am being given the royal push around. Please look into it for this former ‘disgusting Guyanese’
