Letters To The Editor

I support the concerns of Meadowbrook Gardens residents

Dear Editor,

In an article published Friday October 9, 2026 in Kiskadee Watch titled “Meadowbrook Gardens residents demand suspension of GPL’s transmission line work”, this group of residents has expressed a concern which we the residents of Lodge housing scheme, share. The group making an appeal to GPL is clearly knowledgeable and we thank them for their expressed concern. For decades the reality is, Meadowbrook, Lodge housing scheme and D’Urban backlands constitute a single physical area. Recently, blackouts even though of shorter durations, left us to face blinking lights, due to “low voltage”. 

I therefore wish to compliment the group for speaking up and hope that our power brokers – no pun intended- would listen and take appropriate action.

Sincerely,

Elder Hamilton Green

That is deliberate. We believe reliable journalism about Guyana should be available to everyone from the hinterland to the coast, including those who cannot afford to pay for it. But investigating, reporting and publishing every story takes time, energy and resources. Keeping our journalism open depends on the commitment of readers who can chip in and contribute to help cover the cost for everyone.
