Jamaica Gleaner Commentary
published: Sunday | May 1, 2005

Focusing on educational quality
THE $5 BILLION Education Transformation Project announced by the Prime Minister in his Budget speech raises many fundamental issues.

Turning the corner
THE RECENT Budget speeches from both Government and Opposition are cause for cautious hope. It is far too early to conclude and it may all go horribly wrong, but there is no doubting the positives. - Don Robotham


Swan song or fowl fight?
THE PRIME Minister's annual budget presentation to Parliament, presumably his last, had a deeply unpleasant quality to it. He used the fact that it was his 14th to try to grind the necks of his critics into the ground. - Dawn Ritch


Fairness and openness, please!
'SAME KNIFE stick sheep juck goat!' Not to be taken literally since vegetarians don't advocate the sticking of animals, I prefer 'sauce for the goose, sauce for the gander'. - Orville Taylor


What happened to ethics in communication?
GREAT GOOD and great evil come from the use people make of the media with respect to communication. - Herbert Lewis
