(De Ware Tijd) PARAMARIBO — Suriname lacks the necessary number of construction workers for the more than US$ 2 billion in investments Iamgold, Newmont and State Oil are going to make between now and 2015. Then there are the 18,000 houses the government is going to build. This means that the country might have to organize an enormous import of temporary foreign workers. For this good planning and organization will be needed. The Building and Construction Sector in Suriname (BCS) consisting of contractors, architects and engineer’s associations is looking forward to the mega-investments in the mining sector that will considerably benefit the construction sector
