FOR the safety of myself and family, I am kindly requesting you withhold publishing my contact information.

I feel compelled to seek your support to highlight and address a most disturbing and traumatic evil of noise nuisance in our society. I readily acknowledged the numerous actions implemented by the Minister of Home Affairs to eliminate this highly annoying scourge. However,it continues to grow even stronger and has spread widely; it has been ignored for too long and is constantly interfering and affecting our sanity.
I am a resident of Versailles on the West Coast of Demerara and almost every weekend, night and day, especially on a long weekend, I usually fear staying in my own home. The loud music and boom boom emanating from Aracari Resort, which also contributes to triggering the alarms of cars parked in the said Aracari Resort compound, can best be described in its intentions of sending the residents crazy, is no exaggeration.
The police have responded. However, after they leave, in about 15 to 20 minutes music goes up ten times louder than before.
This matter was before the Courts approximately three years ago with the involvement of the Environmental Protection Agency where a ruling was made against the excessive loudness of the music. Three years after we continue to suffer.
We have become a very violent society and we need to explore the variables between loud obnoxious boom boom music and violent behavior.
I am appealing, through your medium, seeking any interventions in this most appalling, disgusting and life-threatening ‘disease’.
