LETTER OF THE DAYJa becoming a real 'preckeh'
The Editor, Sir:I feel compelled to write about the state of our country, which Professor Carl Stone said in 1992, had "become an arena of violence, aggression and lawless behaviour".

A dangerous road

The Editor, Sir: I am not usually a fan of Ms. Dawn Ritch, but her article last Sunday was spot on. The Prime Minister has certainly given credence to the title attached to him by the PNP, i.e. Mr. Flip Flop. Mr. Golding, who prior to the election, preached tirelessly...

Proactive crime measures needed

The Editor, Sir: A number of us continue to lament the sky-rocketing crime rate in Jamaica. This continues to amaze me because in the first instance, if we can identify the source of these weapons, and second, if we can identify the residences of those doing the shooting ...
