THE EDITOR, Madam:
There is too much evidence of the government's continuing inability to manage and administer the country (its people, natural resources and institutions).
Aware of the inevitable social and civic resistance to its governing style the People's National Party seem to be putting in place relevant legislations and laws, to quiet the voice of the frustrated citizenry who are on the brink of revolt.
The government needs to take the bold step in averting social decay; economic decline; and ecological degradation; by firstly breaking all relationships which are notoriously incestuous and dismantle affairs and institutions that continue to rape the natural resources of the country. They also need to stop sustaining conditions of deprivation of the majority of the population; to disenfranchise the majority of Jamaicans to preserve the lascivious lifestyle of the minority, while simultaneously pushing the masses still further into conditions of poverty and hopelessness and close to revolt.
The time is now for country to come first, second and third, where we all must make sacrifices. However, the level of sacrifice made will have to be commensurate with the level of responsibility.
I am, etc.,
