To list some of the government mega projects, most of which will be funded through the budget, the AG pointed to the New Demerara Harbour Crossing, the Linden to Mabura road, the West Coast Demerara-Parika Highway, the East Bank Essequibo main access road and the Railway Embankment along the East Coast of Demerara along with farm to market roads across the country.
The government’s gas to shore project will also get off the ground and there is a Deep-Water Harbour to be constructed at the mouth of the Berbice River.
“Work will begin on a potential oil refinery on the east bank of the Berbice River and there are many more important infrastructural work that will the foundation of modern Guyana,” Nandlall stated.
This is the first year Guyana will tap into oil money after discovering oil in 2015 and pumping first oil in 2019. The money, the AG assured, will be “used to develop Guyana and transform the lives of every single Guyanese.”
“This generation of Guyanese is most fortunate and blessed… This year we will transform Guyana into a completely different place.
“It is the expectation, it is the hope of the government that all hands will be on deck,” he added.
Nandlall promised that the government will not leave any grouping of Guyanese behind.
“This is not the time for divisive politics, ethnic strife, or racial insularity… this is time for cohesion, togetherness and national unity.”
