Jamaica Gleaner Letters
published: Friday | August 15, 2003

Gov't must increase funding for state homes
THE EDITOR, Sir: AS A volunteer of the National Children's Home of Jamaica, I write with a mixture of anger and contempt for the current Government's handling of Children's Services matters.

Harassed 'to the max'
THE EDITOR, Sir: I RECENTLY encouraged a family to take their annual vacation in Jamaica. They came back practically in tears as they were harrassed to the "max".


The public is watching you, police officers
THE EDITOR, Sir: WE CONSTANTLY complain about the acute lawlessness now an apparent inherent part of our society and culture, yet we constantly do nothing. Let me seek to start correcting that.


Thank you, Miss Lou
THE EDITOR, Sir: DR. THE Hon. Louise Bennett -Coverley is as intricately woven into the fabric of our language, theatre, and culture as the weaves of a bankra basket.


Congratulations
THE EDITOR, Sir: PLEASE ALLOW me to congratulate all of the members of the selection board of the National Housing Trust for choosing Laura Facey Cooper's design for the Emancipation Park sculpture.


Vineyard Town roads in poor state
THE EDITOR, Sir: I AM very disturbed about the poor and disgraceful condition of the roads in Vineyard Town. The main areas of concern though, are Roachdale Avenue, King Edward Avenue and King Edward Road.


Gay union in churches
THE EDITOR, Sir: I READ with interest the contribution of Devon Dick on the confirmation of a Rev. Gene Robinson as Bishop.


Give the statue a chance
THE EDITOR, Sir: EVERYONE IS making such a big deal over the statue in Emanicpation Park.


Half-way
THE EDITOR, Sir: I HAD the pleasure to be present at the Prime Minister's award ceremony in Emancipation Park on July 30.
