Jamaica Gleaner Letters
published: Saturday | May 3, 2003

LETTER OF THE DAY - Market fire can spur development

Commending NHT
THE EDITOR, Sir: I COMMEND the use of the National Housing Trust (NHT) contributions to provide affordable housing for the citizens of Jamaica. Decent housing is an essential aspect of socioeconomic development and goes a long way in improving...


Punishment was too severe
THE EDITOR, Sir: I TAKE serious issue with Holy Childhood High School's recent decision to expel over seventeen of its female students for allegedly engaging in inappropriately sexually charged acts on public transportation.

The Finance Minister must go
THE EDITOR, Sir: WHEN A horse breaks a leg and is no longer useful you are required to shoot it and end its misery. When a Finance Minister like Dr Davies gives the portfolio his best policy options and applications for 10 years and only makes matters...


Searching for a Derrick Morgan LP
THE EDITOR, Sir: I WOULD like to use this facility to publicise my search for a Derrick Morgan LP, Forward March. I have been searching for this for over 40 years, without success.


Spurring efficiency
THE CONCEPT of linking performance with salary increases and incentives is one that should be applauded. This would spur efficiency and ensure adequate output in the workplace.


Please repair these streets
THE EDITOR, Sir: I WRITE this letter out of concern for the state of disrepair of the roads in the community of Hermitage.


Stop littering the roadway
THE EDITOR, Sir: I AM hereby appealing to motorists and their passengers who ply the Junction Road route, please to cease and desist from throwing garbage onto the roadway.
