Region One (Barima-Waini) will receive its second radio station with the introduction of Radio Moruca in 2018, according to APNU+AFC parliamentarian Richard Allen.
The station is among the major plans highlighted for the development of the region in the 2018 national budget.
Apart from the addition of Radio Moruca, Allen noted last Tuesday in parliament that a solar farm that has been established in Mabaruma will be completed with funding from the budget.
