The true wealth of a nation is in its people

LettersThe true wealth of a nation is in its people

Dear Editor,
   
Congratulations to the winning party in the national elections. May the government continue striving harder to meet the needs of the people.
   
In Toledo, I have driven on the fine road being built, which will bring development.
   
In Ontario, Canada, some highways have brought unplanned development. I have read that random businesses lining the road, or “strip” development is bad development. May there be a plan that will benefit the people of Toledo, but retain the tourist-drawing charm of the region.
   
The Garifuna and Mayan cultures are part of that charm. It has kept me coming back, twice a year, for 22 years.
   
Which lends truth to the saying, “The true wealth of a nation is in its people.”
 
Yours sincerely,
 
(Signed) Larry Wilson
