Lethem to Linden, not Georgetown

Stabroek News wishes to clarify a statement attributed to Chairman of SAG Andrew Astwood in an article on March 11 headlined ‘Shipping Association plugs for Georgetown, Lethem railway’ which stated that the association was plugging the idea of a railway from Lethem to Georgetown. What should have been stated is that the SAG is calling for a railway link between Lethem to Linden to be considered as an alternative to a road link. Stabroek News regrets the error.
