Dear Editor,
The fires that destroyed the garbage bins in an area that had recently undergone a beautification process should be condemned by all. Was it the work of Venezuelans? Was it the work of an enemy of the State? All political parties should condemn such actions and support police action to bring those involved before the courts. No citizen of Guyana should be involved in the destruction of government property. The destruction shown in the video circulating on social media requires a thorough investigation. The bins destroyed should be replaced and police stationed in the area to ensure public safety.
We, the Guyanese, people should not be involved in unpatriotic acts, especially acts that one would expect from an enemy state. It is imperative that we do not waste the hard-earned resources that are being used to improve our country. The destruction of government property is an act that one would expect from the Venezuelan military and the Venezuelan militia. It is our duty to not aid them in creating division amongst us while also destroying our country. It is our unity that will help us defend against foreign enemies.
We must remain united as Guyanese during our political disagreements and especially during our elections. Remember the current circumstances under which we live. Venezuela has built a military base on our side of the Ankoko border. We are at the International Court of Justice trying to resolve a very serious dispute in order to avoid war. Venezuela is electing a Governor for Essequibo, which means that any division between us will prove to be to their advantage. Stay united and respectful towards each other and do not destroy each other’s hard work. We must live our national motto to preserve our sovereignty.
Sincerely,
Mr. Jamil Changlee
Chairman

(Kaieteur News) – I like it. More money for Guyanese workers. Not private sector minimum wage workers, regrettably. If any local workers are due more money, private sector (and public service) minimum wage workers standout. More money is for Guyanese in the oil industry. Well, that’s...Freedom of speech is our core value at Kaieteur News.
