Dear Editor;
Reading about the workers of GT&T striking was interesting. They are surely doing more, but wait! That is not for the public interest. That’s for their interest. Amongst them one might be responsible for answering the directory assistance’s number that you call when you need someone’s number and they are not answering.
My aunt returns to Guyana and asks them to reconnect her phone because she had disconnect it before leaving. Over two weeks of waiting just for them to punch the instruction through the computer but alas, that person might be picketing outside. I’ll have to ask her to wait some more. You call to report your phone not working properly, screeching, grumblings etc., but weeks after they not investigating your complaints. Just look how fast they reach on the road to look after their interest.
Some of them outside might be responsible for handling one of the various complaints daily but are too lazy to follow through, but he/she finds it fitting to brave the sun for their cause. The dailies are always being bombarded with complaints against GT&T and many of them outside are directly responsible but, do they act?
What a minute! Amongst the various demands I didn’t see any request for a lower of the rates GT&T is charging the public the call to improve the service GTT providing to the public. Like the great artiste sings, ‘he who feels it, knows it’. Sure wish them luck in getting their interest look after, meanwhile the public will have to suffer a litter longer for a better service from GT&T especially from some of them.

By Sir Ronald Sanders (Kaieteur News) – Who speaks for Haiti? It is a question the international community can no longer avoid.

(Kaieteur News) – Just as I suspected. A Guyana Development Bank board of directors that fits the PPP mold perfectly. Some names that ring a certain way. Some faces from barren places.
