Fidelity or Infidelity

We all heard about the story of Fidelity Investments who allegedly produced falsified documents to the Guyana Revenue Authority (GRA) two weeks ago. The company is expected to be charged this week in connection with a shipment of Polar beer two weeks ago even as a larger two-month-old probe of another consignment that snared senior Customs officials continues.

The most recent investigation came after custom officials detected that a low valuation was presented on behalf of Fidelity for the two containers of Polar beer two weeks ago. Several customs officials are currently being grilled over this. According to wikipedia
the word fidelity means " a notion that at its most abstract level implies a truthful connection to a source or sources or its original meaning dealt with loyalty and attentiveness to one's duty." Very interesting, we may have to inform the owners that they forgot a few letters in their company name...... Infidelity..because they damn sure, ain't being loyal nor truthful (giggles)
