We must take up the challenge
THE ‘Grow more’ initiative that the Government is promoting is a mission that Guyanese should take up.
While the world is experiencing a food crisis, Guyana is in a position where it can greatly benefit from this situation.
Guyana has an abundance of land that can be used for mass cultivation; we have always been an agricultural […]
Why no reports on this?
PAGE two of the Guyana Chronicle published on Tuesday, April 29, 2008, under the headline ‘Gov’t will have to bring more draconian laws – Minister Rohee’, it is stated that since Parliament has made some offences non-bailable there has been 74 bail applications granted for these offences.
This is a trend that I thought would have […]
Let the people know the truth
THE lure of political power makes strange bed fellows. Tacuma Ogunseye’s letter (the PNCR protest march should be supported) in the Tuesday’s edition of the Stabroek News is a classic example of this.

Good readers make excellent writers
ENGLISH Literature or English-B is probably one of the very few subjects in the Caribbean Examinations Council (CXC) Syllabus that allows students to meet, deal with, experience and examine other human beings through print and become exposed to their life experiences. It is rather important that students of English- B meet these situations, or read […]
Impressed with Guyana Chronicle’s layout
MY congratulations and admiration to the design crew of your (in my opinion) awarding winning front-pages layouts of recent occasions, your publication of Wednesday, April 30, 2008, for example.
As a Graphic Artist and practitioner in the local Graphics and Printing industry for the past 30 years it is refreshing to see the kind of creativity […]
