Dear Editor,
I went to Guyana for a week on an emergency visit.
Both on my arrival and departure, I was pleasantly struck with the highest quality of staff attendance and behaviour in all departments – security, immigration, customs, etc. indeed, most staff went way out of the previous cold, candid job required courtesy to be so warmly friendly and helpful.
One female officer personally ushered and fast- tracked me and my wife through immigration and custom as “senior citizens”. And while neither of us felt or behaved over 40, I got the chance to experience the feeling of elation that fake diplomats and wheel-chair passengers feel.
But I am certain President Ali’s hospitality training programme, and what I observed as abandonment by Guyana’s young people of racial and political dogmas, are beginning to pay dividends. My kudos and bouquets to Guyana’s young professionals at the CJIA Airport.
Yours truly,
Gokarran Sukhdeo
