Guyanese are committed to saving the planet

Nov 02, 2015 Letters

Dear Editor,
The mirroring of the heroic send off of Guyanese born New York City police office in both NYC and GT is reflective of a next level of globalization, which normally denotes the exchange of trade and services among countries.
However, what the world has witness with regard to NYPD officer, Randolph Holder is the exchange of humanity between countries.  Officer Holder from all accounts was a good citizen of NYC who served the people of NYC and in return they were very grateful for his commitment to duty as an NYPD officer.
His family and friends adored him for his love and generosity.
What transpired at both events is truly the next level of globalization. Those in Guyana was primed with live images (streaming or televised) of massive support in New York, a celebration of humanity that was exported in real time.
For this reason, emotions connected between the two cities without tariff or taxes. What happens after this is the key to strengthening of this facet of globalization.  I don’t claim to have the answer or solution, what I do know is there are no excuses not to continue this exchange.
We could begin with the work being done by the local chapter of Habitat For Humanity or the tremendous progress of Iwokrama. Let NYC know that Guyanese are committed to helping the poor and saving the planet.
Moreover, we will do our part to stop drugs from entering JFK, as such it should be shown on ABC7NYC that the brave men and women of Guyana has prevented tons of cocaine from flooding the streets of NYC.
Currently, what is shown on TV is the weekly bust of cocaine in milk powder or pepper sauce. Guyanese are better than that as shown by the bilateral support for officer Holder.
