-workers team to meet PM on Monday
By Shabna Ullah
As Berbice sugar workers continued a cost of living strike yesterday that saw Prime Minister (PM) Samuel Hinds visiting the region, GuySuCo said the viability of the industry is being threatened by the unrest which is not directly related to the corporation.
The PM, who was told by the sugar workers that their incentives should be increased, addressed the workers on the issue of the estimation of their electricity bills. He told them that it is a “rough time,” not only in Guyana and that government is aware of the difficulties they are facing and needs their help in overcoming the rough times.
