Jamaica Gleaner Letters

Letter of the day - Haitian businessman recounts his losses
THE EDITOR, Sir: I AM A 30-year-old entrepreneur working in Haiti. I am a graduate of a United States universtity and have 10 years of experience working and living in the U.S. until I made the decision to move back to Haiti.

A risky visit
THE EDITOR, Sir: WHEN THE Haitian President Jean-Bertrand Aristide was overthrown, not only did he lose power but many other persons who were a part of his Government and who held significant offices in that country also lost power and income.


What's the big deal about Haiti?
THE EDITOR, Sir: I AM deeply annoyed about the Haitian crisis that seems to be headed to Jamaica.


Who will foot the bill?
THE EDITOR, Sir: AS A TAXPAYER of this country, I have long accepted the fact that my contributions to Government coffers do not entitle me to even the basic efficient, reliable essential services.


More concerned about Haiti?
THE EDITOR, Sir: AS I see it, our Government is more concerned about Mr. Aristide, than they are about the people of Haiti.


Will Aristide meet with refugees?
THE EDITOR, Sir: I WAS appalled at news about the visit of embattled Haitian President Jean-Bertrand Aristide to Jamaica. Why is Jamaica hosting Aristide at such a time as this?


For a united front
THE EDITOR, Sir: I AM pleased that Mr. Aristide will be coming to Jamaica.


That Madrid bombing
THE EDITOR, Sir: WITH PAINED surprise I note that the front page article of your Friday edition recounting the murders in Madrid attributes the crime to the Basque separatist group.


Seeking info on Gibraltar Camp
THE EDITOR, Sir: IN 1944, 60 years ago this year, nearly 2,000 citizens of Gibraltar left Jamaica after living for four years in an evacuation camp at Mona.
