The government will sell the problem-plagued High Street building that once housed the state radio station as part of a plan to relieve the Guyana Forestry Commission (GFC) from its current financial woes.
This was revealed by Minister of Natural, Raphael Trotman, who gave an update on his Ministry’s accomplishments so far for the year on Thursday at the Arthur Chung Convention Centre, Liliendaal after he met with the representatives of the Boards of the GFC, the Guyana Geology and Mines Commission (GGMC) and the Guyana Gold Board (GGB).
Trotman was questioned on the GFC’s financial woes and whether the sale of the building is being considered. He stressed that the matter has been engaging the Ministry’s attention internally and they continue to work with both the Guyana Agricultural and General Workers Union (GAWU) and the GFC, and are also having discussion with the GGMC to bring the Forestry Commission back to full viability, and in some instances to make it better than before.
