Beware of the 'Greeks'
published: Monday | July 24, 2006

THE EDITOR, Sir:

As the saying goes, one must be careful of the Greeks especially when they come bearing gifts.

I here refer to Castro the communist and his Cuban technicians coming to Jamaica to screw light bulbs into our household electrical sockets.

Why should it need 100 technicians to screw in light bulbs, when even my little grandson usually does the same? I do it, my wife does it.

CUTTING LIGHT BILLS

Why is Fidel Castro so interested in Jamaica? Why is Kern Spencer, the Junior Minister, so enthusiastic about this light bulbs distribution as if these electrical apparatuses will cut poor people's light bill in half, which it does not, as I have that experience?

Can Jamaicans not buy a few light bulbs? Why is our government so cheap and beggy, beggy, and our people so depraved? To hell with Castro and his bulbs.

I am, etc.,
