Ali wants UK investors to take advantage of business opportunities here

President Irfaan Ali

In a pitch to United Kingdom (UK) investors on the advantages of investing here, President Irfaan Ali yesterday announced that his government will create the infrastructure for development while disclosing that discussions are ongoing with the United Arab Emirates to build a deepwater port.

He however urged UK business persons to be aggressive, as he spoke about their Chinese counterparts’ unrelenting positions when going after investment opportunities. 

“We must have a major deep-water port to handle a Panamax [ship]”… “We are in discussions with Abu Dhabi Ports,” Bloomberg yesterday reported Ali as saying during the Guyana Investment Seminar that he is currently attending in London.
