THE EDITOR, Sir:

I WANT to use this opportunity, to congratulate our prime minister, Mr Bruce Golding, for standing up to the gay community, despite the pressure we are coming under from that group in Canada who want a tourism boycott. In the Caribbean, so many prime ministers have closed their eyes to this problem that is increasing in our community.

God bless you, Mr Prime Minister. We are praying for you.

I am, etc.,
