Let’s establish a benchmark for all villages in Guyana

Dear Editor,
I applaud the First Lady Arya Ali, who recently commissioned two recreational parks as part of the National Beautification Initiative. However, the First Lady cannot do it alone for all of Guyana. There are others whose job is to see the all-round improvement in the villages and country.
Of particular, I refer to the clearing of drains and surroundings in my village, Cornelia Ida. It’s a sight for sore eyes. After works are done, water is left lodged in the drains and weeds emerge within three to four days. This has been ongoing for years. It sickens my heart to know the Government has been spending quite a lot of money to have these works done properly, yet those whose job it is do not seem to care or do not know what to do.
I am suggesting a senior official of the Government to come and let’s establish a benchmark for Cornelia Ida and all the villages in Guyana.

Respectfully,
Seenanan Sooknanan
