Jamaica Gleaner Letters

People live in Downtown Kingston!
THE EDITOR, Sir: I AM happy to see Downtown Kingston back on the agenda. I have always wondered how it is that the plight of the nation's capital could never stay long enough on the national agenda for the trend of continuing decline...

Nedrick White
THE EDITOR, Sir: I AM looking for a friend that I went to school with. We attended the Pembroke Hall School. He migrated to the US in 1988. His name is Nedrick White, his last address in Jamaica was in Garveymeade.


Laurie Williams: quintessential sportsman
THE EDITOR, Sir: KINDLY ALLOW me to use this medium to offer my condolence to the families and friends of the former West Indies all-round cricketer Laurie Rohan Williams and his brother Kevin Jenninson who met tragic deaths in a car accident recently...


EOJ firmly against malpractices
THE EDITOR, Sir: IT APPEARS that reference to certain constituencies who have polling stations that have garrison-like tendencies, and warning them that they are prime candidates for voiding, without also naming the constituencies commonly known as...


Shameful conduct in Manchioneal
THE EDITOR, Sir: IT WAS with great consternation and disappointment that I listened to the news report earlier last week, regarding the cocaine find off the coast of Manchioneal in Portland. My joy at the police force's success was immediately...

A refreshing edition
THE EDITOR, Sir: I WOULD like to tell you how moved I was while I was reading the Sept 11 edition of The Gleaner. As an American that travels to Jamaica a lot I know how compassionate the Jamaican people are. It was just refreshing to see the many...


Independence and the Oath
THE EDITOR, Sir: I READ a Friday, September 13 Jamaica Gleaner online article entitled: "JLP MPs walk out of committee - To protest move by Gov't on Oath of Allegiance" By Vernon Daley, Staff Reporter.


It's time we wake-up
THE EDITOR, Sir: THE STORY is told of a man who asked his neighbour to assist him in removing a settee stuck in the doorway. They struggled until they were both sweating. They decided to take a rest.


A black country, burger and fries
THE EDITOR, Sir: I FIND it ironic that the writer of the letter, "Jamaica is black country," while proclaiming, "you and the Queen of England can come and try tek it back," sends her declaration of defiance from Texas.
