Chaguanas support for UNC

THE EDITOR: I have read and listened to the boasts by the PNM, led by its so-called Central coordinator, Satish Ramroop, that the party will make serious inroads into the Chaguanas Borough Corporation and prise out more than the one it holds at present.

Let me assure all residents of Chaguanas that such a claim is pie in the sky. The record of the councillors of the borough has been exceptional and their support has grown over the past years. One of the seats they are boasting they will win is Montrose. Nothing could be further from reality. The simple fact is that incumbent Councillor Gopaul Boodhan has performed beyond the call of duty during his first term in office. Mr Boodhan has attended to all complaints in his district and is more than deserving of being returned to office. As a resident of Lange Park, I am especially pleased with the work he has done at the Lange Park recreation ground, where we now have a paved jogging track, a practice cricket pitch, proper lighting and other facilities. Mr Boodhan is an excellent example of what a local government representative should be. He is always willing to listen and responds to requests promptly.
