NEW AMSTERDAM, BERBICE – The top brass of the Post Office Corporation posited the entity would not be left behind despite limited resources.Constant efforts are being made to broaden the horizons, one such measure is to offer space for rental and this nets millions of dollars annually- presently there are three such at the Skeldon Post Office.The advent of the electronic mail had no significant impact on the corporation while at the same time the volume of business mail increased and now accounts for 58 percent thus bringing in a large chunk of the revenue across the country.No other entity in Guyana has such a large network – 65 locations — as the Guyana Post Office Corporation.Overall there has been improvement in the delivery of mail across the country. The mail from Georgetown would arrive in New Amsterdam before 7:00 hours and more so, with the bridge across the Berbice River now in operation and the introduction of contractors.Chairman of the Board of Directors,Cheap Jerseys From China, Bishop Juan Edghill, said that the New Year would see some technologically advanced services.“We are not where we want to be but we are not where we used to be.” Mr. Edghill acknowledged. He added that the post office corporation is competing with high speed internet and the like. The need is greater now to upgrade both its physical and human resources, he added.Security is a major concern for the entity. In East Berbice there were a few major incidents one of which claimed the life of a staff member.In September 2007, New Amsterdam Post Office employee Jermaine Forde was gunned down by bandits during a robbery. The gunmen walked away with only $3,Jerseys NFL Wholesale,000 in coins. At the time of the incident,China Jerseys Cheap, the victim and three other post office employees were returning from a commercial bank in New Amsterdam.The team had gone to uplift funds for pension and the like payments but when they arrived at the bank the cash was not available and they were asked to return later.While making their way back to the post office, which is located at Alexander Street and Republic Road they were attacked in Alexander Street just a short distance from the office.In March 2007 another daring robbery was allegedly committed just about 200 yards from the New Amsterdam Post Office. In that incident two bandits made off with some $8.2 million and 38 -year old Kishore Sewlall,Wholesale NFL Jerseys, Post Master of the Nigg Police Station was shot in the abdomen.Last August, two gun men escaped with $6 million from the Rose Hall Post Office. The cash, which was intended for the payment of old age and National Insurance Scheme pension, was collected about two hours prior to the robbery and was reportedly never placed in a vault but left under the desk of the then Post Mistress.That official and the Postal Apprentice were both detained by police and subsequently released.Bishop Edghill said that the Rose Hall Town incident should never have taken place and was a clear breach of security measures. Both the Guyana Police Force and the Post Office Corporation launched separate investigations after the incident.The female official is no longer on the job after internal action was taken against her.According to him,Authentic Jerseys Cheap, the corporation is doing everything in its power to provide the best forms of security but staff must understand the need to protect themselves and the state’s assets.With the corporation having a zero tolerance for theft, mail tampering and the like wrongdoings any staff found guilty would face instant dismissal.
