President Irfaan Ali yesterday defended Guyana’s local content laws in Port of Spain and told the Trinidadian press that companies out of the Twin-Island Republic account for the largest number of regional investors in this country.

He made the statement while responding to questions about the ease of doing business in Guyana as well as the number of Trinidadian investors in Guyana.

“I do not seek to quantify individual investors from any country. I see investors from every country as equal as investors within Guyana and yes, if you look at it from a regional perspective, most of the investors from the region are from Trinidad and Tobago in Guyana,” Ali said.
