DEAR EDITOR,
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) has seemingly succumbed to what I can term “Granger’s disease” – an inability to understand language that needs no gloss. On the 29th December, I wrote that “Guyana’s Ambassador to the United Nations H.E Rudolph Michael Ten Pow submitted his resignation to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs”. Thursday a statement was issued from the MFA including this line “Contrary to recent allegations in the local media, Ambassador Ten-Pow has not resigned his post as Permanent Representative to the United Nations”. I sincerely hope the persons entrusted with Guyana’s relationship to the International community possess a better grasp of the English language than is indicated in this response. To be pellucid, I maintain that Ambassador Ten Pow submitted his resignation.
Respectfully,
Robin Singh
