Helena farmers happy with Govt’s intervention

Dear Editor,
My name is Roopnarin Persaud. I am a farmer from Helena. For years, farmers in this village have been suffering from flooding due to a number of blocked canals and internal drains. I and a few farmers met with Minister of Agriculture, Zulfikar Mustapha, during a farmer’s meeting at his office and asked him to do some work in the area. He agreed, and said that he would make a machine available to do the works soon.
I am happy to report that the machine came, and the works have been completed.
On behalf of the farmers from Helena, I would like to thank the Honourable Minister for his timely response and intervention. I would also like to thank the engineer who worked to have everything completed.

Yours sincerely,
Roopnarin Persaud
