Deputy Premier of the British Virgin Islands (BVI), Lorna Smith on Tuesday encouraged Guyanese residing in the BVI to return home to support the ongoing transformation of the country’s oil and non-oil sectors and to ease the county’s labour shortage.
She was speaking during a press briefing on the recent BVI Trade Mission to Guyana.
Smith told the press that as discussions are ongoing at the level of the BVI Cabinet on removing the existing visa restrictions for Guyanese, there is no expectation of Guyanese flocking the shores of the Virgin Islands.
