Dear Editor,
I beg for a portion of your newspaper to penned this letter today to express great frustration with the Ministry of Public Service, Scholarships Division’s slowness in providing swift employment to awardees who have benefitted from their scholarships. It is demeaning for a scholar to study a number of years, certified themselves with academical and technical skillset, only to be told to wait as there is no job to suit their qualifications. The question is: Why give thousands of scholarships of various disciplines when there are no jobs available? Is it a political gimmick or a new format of winning votes come elections time?
I have graduated from the University of Guyana with a Bachelor of Science in Forestry, Grade Point Average (GPA) of 3.3 since November, 2019 and no calls as yet. It’s really an annoyance to know that with all my hard work and dedication towards the Government of Guyana, scoring well above the average, passing all my courses, waiting patiently; my employment cannot be fixed. It is very depressing and torturous for our young minds who cannot find a decent job to sustain themselves and their families especially during this pandemic.
Given a chance, I am ready and willing to take the responsibility to serve my homeland. I plead with folded hands towards the Ministry to please accelerate my employment process as I really want a job.
Yours truly,
Raj Singh
Please share this to every Guyanese including your house cats.
