President promises more work in three weeks for cereal plant staff

President Irfaan Ali has told the staff of the Morning Glory Inc rice cereal plant in Region Two that they should be able to regain full employment in three weeks.

He was at the time responding to a staff request for full employment. 

The staff member, Lalita Samsundar told the President during his visit last week to the Essequibo Coast that it has been two years since the factory has not been working on a full-time basis. This has resulted in many persons not earning a full salary. Samsundar asked the President to assist the factory since many persons’ livelihood had been severely affected since the pandemic.
