SOME are well educated, but yet they have learned very little. They use letters to express their indifferent opinions, displeasure and bitterness about President Bharrat Jagdeo, instead of using their knowledge to do some good professionally and academically. One good example is Sasenarine Singh.
Mr. Singh, in his letter titled: “Could not the money spent on the Appreciation have been better used supporting those in orphanages and old people’s homes for a year?” published by Stabroek News on August 19, 2011, seems to be jealous and abhorrent towards President Jagdeo and his administration. He writes ludicrously and fallaciously, opinionating what he thinks is moral. Nothing is wrong with him expressing his opinions, nonetheless, look at how and what he writes. I feel so sorry for him. It is a sad situation that he falls prey to the culture of ignorance.
His faulty inferences and narrow-mindedness are getting in the way of his meager thinking. Everyone can see that state resources were used for the President’s Appreciation Day, such as, the National Stadium, the Guyana Police Force, and the Guyana Defence Force. Within the public sector, some employees normally receive a monthly duty allowance along with their salary. The Guyana Police Force for example, would have not been paid for partaking in such an event since officers’ salaries would have included duty allowances to cover any overtime work.
Mr. Singh fails to realise that there were massive private funding made available by people who wanted to express thanks to Jagdeo for his contributions to this country during his 12-year presidency. The presence of hundreds of people at the event last Friday is an indication that our President is highly regarded for his contributions. If I am correct, Mr. Singh is indicating to me and the general public that he is assertive of the fact that government funding was used.
Therefore, I would like him to present such evidence to me and to the Guyanese people.
The current government may have made mistakes, but which government in this world is flawless? President Jagdeo has made many contributions to this country and Mr. Singh is ignorant of the fact that nothing in this world is absolute, but rather relative. His absurdity and irrationality make him a comic letter writer, than a so called critical one.
