The proposed closure of Wales Sugar Estate, in West Demerara, is
quite depressing.
This reminds me of the decision to scrap the railroads back in the
70's. After the railway lines were closed, a mess was created.
School children were always late for their classes. Workers could
not get to work on time. The govt. run bus service was unreliable.
Taxi drivers were
scarce. Thus, the closure of Wales Estate reminds me again of
the Guyana Govt. near sightedness.
The Granger Govt. should seriously reconsider such a drastic decision.
