Dear Editor,
The Georgetown Chamber of Commerce and Industry (GCCI) recently held a rather extravagant dinner for the launching of its business magazine. The Magazine focuses on the promise of oil and what it means for the country.
The problem arises when one ventures into the pages of this magazine. On page 4, one notices the message of the GCCI President, Deodat Indar. But following that is the message of President, David Granger on Page 6.
Editor, for a business magazine, the Chamber has certainly acted in an impertinent manner. How does the message of a GCCI President appear before that of a President of a nation? Any layman would understand that the order of importance would dictate which appears first. The Chamber needs to do better than this.
