Jamaica Gleaner Letters
published: Monday | November 26, 2007

LETTER OF THE DAY - How Singapore solved its traffic gridlock
The Editor, Sir: Your editorial on traffic congestion contains some sensible solutions that should have been put in place long, long ago. The trouble is lack of strong leadership and a willingness to face the real problem, which is to confront and re-educate road users...

Bullying tactics by the banks

The Editor, Sir: In response to your article in Saturday's Gleaner, I am very concerned about this matter, and wondering when was it that we the people of Jamaica lost our free will. What right do these banks have to try and deny people the right to live comfortable.

Direct election for all mayors

The Editor, Sir:Whichever party wins the parish council elections, I am asking that in the near future that all of Jamaica's mayors be directly elected.Why? I think that there are so many capable and prominent persons in the wider society who can manage the councils' business...

How to reduce traffic accidents

The Editor, Sir: Traffic accidents are eating up a very large portion of our medical budget each year. We have increased the traffic fines to the point where they have now gone through the roof and are still going higher. Most motorists that are given traffic tickets...

Taking precautions

The Editor, Sir: Please allow me to offer some advice regarding cellphones and credit cards. The technology exists whereby a mobile phone can be deactivated, all you need to know is the registered number, phone the company and explain that your cellphone...
