President David Granger while sharing the message of social cohesion, yesterday, told Berbicians at Highbury Village, East Bank Berbice that Guyana’s diversity was an asset and not a liability.

The president, who was at the time speaking at the Indian Arrival Day celebration held yesterday midday, noted that Guyana has always been, and will always be a multi-ethnic, multi-cultural and multi-religious country, somethings the citizens should be proud of.

“Our diversity is an asset not a liability. We are proud of the variegated tapestry of ethnicity. We are proud of our shared past as we plan our common future,” President Granger said.
