Jamaica Gleaner Letters
published: Thursday | July 22, 2004

Why is there a Fire Brigade Service?
THE EDITOR, Sir: I READ with horror the article published recently about a resident of Westmoreland who lost his entire business to fire because there was no working fire engine.

Patois is not the problem
THE EDITOR, Sir: I recently attended a workshop that was facilitated by Dr. Leachim Semaj. A uniquely refreshing component of the session was, in my view, his use of Jamaican patois at different points throughout the presentation.


Bad roads in Glenmuir
THE EDITOR, Sir: I WRITE on behalf of the residents of the over 200 households of the Glenmuir Housing Scheme in May Pen, Clarendon, to complain about the deplorable road conditions.


Marley was no theologian
THE EDITOR, Sir: FOR THE sake of level-headedness and sobriety I feel constrained to respond to Devon Dick's article of Tuesday, July 20...


Be an example!
THE EDITOR, Sir: I AM disgusted at the way the attorneys-at-law handled the issue of being searched upon entering the Horizon Correctional Facility to visit their clients on Monday, July 19, 2004.


Paralysed by fear
THE EDITOR, Sir: LIKE HEADLESS chickens running to and fro or a ship without a captain, the Jamaican people seem powerless and lost, as the crime situation has cornered them and put them into a bind of fear, hopelessness and despair.


Davies best for PM job
THE EDITOR, Sir: I WAS very pleased to read a short article in the July 13th edition of The Gleaner, titled 'Choosing a PM is serious business' by Rev. Joan Porteous.


A big problem
THE EDITOR, Sir: WITH GREAT delight, I read Garth Rattray's article 'In defence of big words' in Tuesday's July 20, 2004 Gleaner.
