SEVERAL years ago, I wrote a letter of the nastiness, unhygienic presence and unpleasant sight of solar-baked carcasses. Then I wrote another one about two years after, and my 10-year-old son wrote one also, but it seems our administrators of the City Hall and nationwide NDCs are impotent, incompetent, and just do not seem to care. Our nation is on a thrust for tourism, by encouraging foreigners and overseas-based Guyanese to visit Guyana in order to help in our nation’s development. But with such immaturity and wanton carelessness, how can we show and prove to the world that we are ready for tourism and the consequential development of Guyana?
We see dying animals in various parts of Georgetown and NDCs, allowed to rot to the bone in the eyeshot of students, and citizens in general. We see crows, exiting the bellies of the rotting carcasses with juicy stink guts in their mouths, being solar baked in our country’s highways and by-ways. This sends a message in the minds of our people that authorities lack style, character and personality. That they just do not care or give a damn.
But I have seen animals crushed in front of the business of prominence in the East Coast of Demerara, and other areas, and they are allowed to rot in front of their stores or restaurants, without a care of the deleterious effects it would have on children, pregnant women and tourists. To some locals it may not matter. Can they not pay someone a few dollars to just bury it somewhere?
Today, the day of writing, Saturday December 8 at 9am by the Ogle double bridge, going west, I saw dead animals rotting and impeding traffic, of course producing its pungent aroma. As usual, as we are accustomed, unless some patriotic Guyanese or caring citizen of the area do something, I expect that flesh to be truly solar baked, with the expected stench saturating our atmosphere in Guyana.
Amazingly, NDCs and City Hall do not operate on weekends and holidays, so more solar-baked, dead flesh for visual and aromatic consumption can be expected. Enjoy!
