Trade unionist NK Gopaul has lamented that while billions of dollars have been injected into GuySuCo, tangible results are yet to be seen and he called for higher wages for workers in the industry.
Gopaul was addressing the 54th Delegates Conference of the National Association of Agricultural, Commercial and Industrial Employees (NAACIE) on Friday at the Umana Yana. NAACIE is one of the unions in the sugar industry and Gopaul has been associated with it for 52 years.
He pointed out that sister sugar union, the Guyana Agricultural and General Workers Union (GAWU) has issued several statements of concerns over the management style in the industry.
