Pressure continues to build on the Guyana Government over the granting of a broadcast licence to China Central TV with the Georgetown Cham-ber of Commerce and Indus-try (GCCI) being the latest to voice concern on the matter.

Thus far, the private sector had been silent on the granting earlier this month of a 24-hour broadcasting licence to CCTV on dubious grounds.
In a statement yesterday, the GCCI expressed “considerable concerns” over the process that led to the granting of a television licence and broadcast spectrum frequency to the Chinese Government.
