Jamaica Gleaner Letters
published: Saturday | May 12, 2007

LETTER OF THE DAY - Murder rate prompts call for action now
The Editor, Sir: A few days ago I read an article online which painted a daunting picture of the Caribbean and its rising prominence as the crime capital of the world. With a murder rate of 30 per 100,000 persons, the Caribbean has surpassed Latin America which has seen a decline in their crime rate statistics.

Malaria drive threatens bees

The Editor, Sir: I would publicly like to acknowledge the wonderful effort of the Ministry of Health in arresting the dreadful malaria mosquito. However, in this exercise a very important point is being missed...

Election is near

The Editor, Sir: Election is truly in the air. If we listen and observe, our doubts will be removed. The signs are clear, senseless killings are all around, major robberies are being staged, the propaganda increases via talk show hosts...

Gay agenda on the move

THE EDITOR, Sir:I shudder as I write to express my alarm at the rise of homosexuality in our country. Now they have a church, or they are trying to have one. The homosexual agenda never seems to stop.

KCC explains

THE EDITOR, Sir: Your publication of Saturday, April 28, 2007, carried a letter written by Mr. Mr. Neville Beckford with the caption, 'Left thirsty at Sabina'. Please allow me to outline the arrangements that were made for use of this facility prior to, and during, the just concluded Cricket World Cup.

Freedom of choice

The Editor, Sir: As human beings, we are entitled to our freedom of choice and that right is supposed to be respected by all.
