Dear Editor,
In this last letter to SN, I would like to express a deep appreciation for your (owners, staff and workers) years of dedication to the motto: “truth to power”. If this government is committing to the fact that Cuba should adhere to much more democratic norms, (except, of course, the apologists for Cuban communism- Clement Rohee and Donald Ramotar), then this government should do everything to help SN survive, in one form or another. We, the Guyanese people reject any form of socialism/communism and any government corruption which is the norm in Cuba which we should always reject. Free enterprise and the free press is our future. If this government is committed to this vision then how does it explain the government owned Chronicle where millions upon millions of dollars of our money is spent and where the likes of a Fred Kissoon is free to spread lies and distortions to readers.[1]
Please, Mr. Government, think about it as enhancing your commitment to democracy if you help to save SN, a shining example of freedom of the press and most of all, SN represents the vitality of freedom of enterprise which should be the driving force of true wealth for the Guyanese people – and they’re up to it – just look around as Guyanese wake up from the slumber of years of socialist/communist ideas.
Editor, thank you for printing my letters over the years and God bless all at SN and keep you safe – you will always be remembered by the Guyanese people for your services and that is why SN should try to survive with an online version.[2] For me, this is the end of my letter writing because I’ll never submit a letter to any publication, except SN. So Editor, staff and workers: Thank you, thank you, thank you……..
