Hope for catfish exporters following Pompeo visit

Zulfikar Mustapha

Local fishermen will welcome news that United States Secretary of State Michael Pompeo discussed with government a review of the ban on catfish from this country.

“I raised with Secretary Pompeo, the need to revisit the current export restriction on wild-caught catfish – a product which is (in) great demand in the Guyanese diaspora,” President Irfaan Ali said on Friday following the exchange of a framework for investment agreement at State House.
