Jamaica Gleaner Letters
published: Thursday | September 2, 2004

Targeting the role of parents and guardians
THE EDITOR Sir, IN THE nightly news of August 30, 2004 on one of our television stations an item was aired in which James Robertson, while speaking at a Jamaica Labour Party meeting, accused the Minister of Education...

Men with guns
THE EDITOR, Sir: WHAT IS a gunman? Is it a man with a gun, or is it a certain class of man with a gun? Or is it a certain class of man with a certain class of gun? I guess the little birds can tell us.


Creating our own disasters
THE EDITOR, Sir: TODAY IS one week since the start of the fires at Riverton. This morning, I noticed a painting of smoke across the sky heading in a south-west direction.


Respect our garbage collectors
THE EDITOR, Sir: I WOULD like to say thank you to the hard working garbage collectors, whose job it is to help to keep the place free of garbage thus helping all of us to enjoy a cleaner, healthier country.


Assamba should apologise
THE EDITOR, Sir: THE CONTROVERSIAL statements attributed to Minister Assamba have indicated that political tribalism is still alive and well. I do accept that she is a politician, but she must remember that she is also an agent of the state. Her actions.


Air Jamaica, don't sacrifice quality for quantity
THE EDITOR Sir, I AM greatly concerned with the current service by our number one airline Air Jamaica. While having the most expensive airfare, the service meted out to the consumer continues to dwindle by the day.


Saving Trevor
THE EDITOR, Sir: AS I looked at the smiling faces in the newspapers of those bright youngsters who did so well on their CXC and other exams I was overcome by emotional conflict; for every one that is rescued an equal number is cast to the dungeons.


Travesty at Rose Hall Great House
THE EDITOR Sir, I AM compelled to comment on a recent return visit to Jamaica. Congratulations are due to the owners on a fine reconstruction of the main portion of Rose Hall Great House and on the presentation of its interior furnishings and artefacts.


Shame on you politicians
THE EDITOR, Sir: I WOULD like to see the politicians live up to the level of intelligence we expect, especially in the area of campaigning for a leading post.


Monumental documentation for our Olympians
THE EDITOR, Sir: IT WAS with great joy and gladness that we watched 'Jamaica Run' at the Olympic games in Athens. Jamaica's sons and daughters have once again done us proud, glad tidings indeed!...
