Minister Manickchand is a champion for ‘education for all’

Dear Editor,
I’M writing this article to highlight a true heroine of Guyana, Minister of Education, Priya Manickchand. The reason I call this woman a heroine is that she’s on an operation of investigating all school dropouts and absentees from school.

She is trying to help them out by visiting their homes and bringing solutions to end illiteracy of our Guyanese children. These are the real duties of a true minister; she is going beyond boundaries to fight for our Guyanese children. Her love for children and education is so admirable that I had to write this article.

She is trying to put children back in the classrooms in whatever way she can. With education, we can develop moral personality and physical powers to change the world. Without education, society can’t go grow or even develop.

The famous Malala said, “Education can change our life”; “Teachers open the door, but you must enter by yourself.” – Chinese Proverb and then there is Malcom X, who said “Education is the passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it.

Children are the future for our tomorrow.

Your’s sincerely,
Annabelle Persaud
