Jagdeo welcomes new Marriott investment but criticizes secret negotiations

Opposition Leader Bharrat Jagdeo on Thursday welcomed the investment represented by the new AC Marriott Hotel but criticized the secrecy with which the arrangement was negotiated.

“We welcome investment in hotels, we welcome investors to Guyana but what is surprising is the secrecy through which the whole arrangement or deal was struck,” Jagdeo said, noting that the action showed that the APNU+AFC government is duplicitous.
