The Guyana Agricultural and General Workers’ Union (GAWU) and members of the opposition People’s Progressive Party/Civic (PPP/C) yesterday took aim at government’s plans for the sugar industry, while urging that it reconsider closing estates or privatisation.
GAWU’s General Secretary Seepaul Narine, delivering the feature address to the several hundred workers gathered for the union’s annual Labour Day rally, which was held at the Port Mourant Community Centre ground, said there are too many holes in the plans for the industry and government needs to go back to the drawing board.
