Good article on Seaga
Dear Editor,
My sincere congratulations and thanks for the great article entitled ‘Edward Seaga helped to build a nation’ by Garfield Higgins and printed in The Agenda magazine of the Sunday Observer dated January 22, 2017.
It was one of the most comprehensive, well-written articles on Edward Seaga’s contributions to the building of Jamaica, ranging from the part he played saving us from the experimentation with communism, to rebuilding the destroyed economy, major institutions and social programmes among his many accomplishments in the short time he was given to do this.
I personally know that if he had been in the prime minister role for a longer time more would and could have been accomplished. The Jamaican populace, in its wisdom, saw it wise not to do so.
So sorry the younger people know so little about the valiant attempt by one leader to have made such meaningful contributions.
