Private sector urges unity between political parties

Desmond Sears

Chairman of the Private Sector Commission (PSC) Desmond Sears has called for unity between the political parties and has urged support for the government of the day.

Speaking about his expectations for the new year in his Christmas message, Sears said, “…my very first wish, and this is shared by all in the Private Sector Commission, is for genuine unity between the political parties who have the option of uniting Guyana through their collective will.  I would also like to urge all stakeholders to work towards supporting the government of the day, regardless of personal political preference.”

In terms of plans for the new year, Sears said that the PSC will be hosting a seminar on the Dutch Disease early in the year. This will be followed in February by another seminar on the oil and gas sector and how businesses can best position themselves to reap maximum benefits.
