Dear Editor,
FIRST of all, I commend Joseph Baichu for his very well written letter: Kaietuer News, November 17, 2017, Re, “Coping with a vindictive Region Six official,” which was candid in illustrating the spiteful and vindictiveness suffered at the hands of a PPP/C controlled Region Six official.

Editor, no surprises here, since such traits are well known characteristics of a party that has taught such supporters well.
First of all, it highlights again the fact that the PPP/C believes that every Indo-Guyanese should support it unconditionally and when this is not the case, then a severe penalty in any form is exacted. How can such a doctrine be termed as democratic, can only be understood by a party which continues to behave in self-miasmic manner.

Secondly, Baichu has displayed great conscience, and honesty, by following strict environmental rules, unlike the other contractors, who would be definite PPP/C supporters. In doing so, he has given his fellow Berbicians wage-earning opportunities.
Thirdly, for him it is not about maximising earnings, but about the need to preserve the environment, and in the process assisting to protect the health of his colleague workers.
Such qualities are becoming rare by the day, in a country that continues to emerge from a culture of greed, and lawlessness, compliments of the dismal governance of the former PPP/C government.

In every respect, this is bullyism, and criminality being inflicted on this dedicated Region Six contractor, simply because he supports another political party. This ought to cease. Further, he should receive his overdue payments. What kind of politically affiliated official would endeavour to deny a contractor who had discharged his functions to the letter, his earnings?
Examples such as this should disgust all Guyanese.

Regards
Earl Hamilton
