In a short ceremony held at Camp Ayanganna today, U.S. Embassy Chargé d’ Affaires Bryan Hunt (second from left) presented Guyana Defence Force Brigadier Mark Phillips with the second shipment of a communications package to the Guyana Defence Force. The package, consisting of hundreds of car-mounted and handheld Motorola radios and accessories, was donated to the Defence Force and the Government of Guyana, a release from the US Embassy said today. The value of the equipment donated in September was $250,000 USD and this donation tripled that value at US$750,000, bringing the total to $1M USD, or 200M GYD.
