President Ali ‘bats’ for regional investment potential

His Excellency Dr Irfaan Ali joined UAE Minister of State for Foreign Trade Dr Thani bin Ahmed Al Zeyoudi

His election to office having coincided with the materialization of the age-old promise that Guyana would one day experience the good fortune of becoming an ‘oil economy’, President Irfaan Ali has been basking in the glow of international media attention as the international business community continues to monitor what has now come to be regarded as a major haven for foreign investment.

Earlier this week, at a forum in Dubai hosted by the Caribbean Export Development Agency, the Guyanese President utilised what has now become a sizeable captive international audience to go beyond ‘batting for Guyana’, holding out the Caribbean as a fast-emerging investment haven, going forward.
