Jamaica Gleaner Letters
published: Monday | November 10, 2003

A loss of innocence
THE EDITOR, Sir: IT IS a cause for concern that young children are being left alone with their under-developed intellect and frame of mind, to presume that deviant sexual practices are correct and acceptable.

Great story, wrong woman
THE EDITOR, Sir: CAROLYN COOPER'S eulogy for Louise Fraser-Bennett, published in The Sunday Gleaner, eloquently bespeaks the 'naturally mystic' persona of that lioness of a Jamaican woman.


Handling waste properly
THE EDITOR, Sir: CRUISE SHIPS for World Cup cricket are a great idea to solve a short-term problem of accommodation. The islands must have co-ordinated rules for waste disposal and a good system of monitoring compliance.


Jamaica, 'nuff problem'?
THE EDITOR, Sir: THIS LETTER has to do with a recent visit I made to downtown Montego Bay. Before this, I had already been robbed three times on these streets, but, this experience was to add insult to injury.


A big mistake
THE EDITOR, Sir: SEVERAL WEEKS ago when I read The Gleaner on-line (which I do every day), I was shocked to find that the resort police in Ocho Rios were withdrawn. My husband and I have stayed in Ocho Rios seven times and will be returning again soon.


Separating the sheep from the goats
THE EDITOR, Sir: WE JAMAICANS have become accustomed to a political directorate that makes their presence felt only in the run-up to elections.


Bus crews and bad behaviour
THE EDITOR, Sir: I AM responding to an article appearing in your columns on Friday November 7, 2003, 'NTCS buses not a problem'.


Change is in the air
THE EDITOR, Sir: THERE ARE certain legal developments taking place locally which says to me that Jamaica is finally beginning to move away from a situation where the 'big man' gets away with all manner of corruption.


Jean P. DaCosta
THE EDITOR, Sir: MY NAME is Tasha. I'm a former student of St. Alban's Primary School in Kingston, Jamaica. I am trying to locate my former principal, Jean P. DaCosta.
