Making a pitch to the Canadian diaspora to come home and invest, President Irfaan Ali said that not only did Guyana need its human resources more than ever, but investment opportunities were sure and did not need approval for him to flourish.
“Rediscover your country; rediscover its future and then make appropriate decisions. There is no doubt we are talking about an economy that will be a US$10 billion economy by 2030. We are talking GDP [Gross Domestic Product] per capita that will move to be about US$30k. We need people and we need people badly,” the President said during an address at a breakfast event organized by the International Muslim Organisation of Toronto, Canada.
During his three-day visit to Canada which concluded yesterday, Ali was bullish on Guyana’s economic prospects and trumpeted the many developmental projects that are ongoing and those that his government has planned for the future.
