Sugar workers at the Rose Hall and Providence estates yesterday marched through the streets of New Amsterdam, protesting the rise in food prices before picketing the National Insurance Scheme (NIS) office and the Guyana Power & Light Incorporated (GPL).
The protestors assembled at Tacama turn, East Berbice at around 7 am bearing placards with the words, “starvation in Berbice,” “high cost of living” and “reduce the bills,” they proceeded along Main Street.
