With business owners complaining of a reduction in sales, President of the Georgetown Chamber of Commerce Inc (GCCI) Vishnu Doerga says the APNU+AFC government should “hold off on new forms of taxation.”
In an invited comment, Doerga told Stabroek News that government should also put a hold on “other measures that would cause the cost of living or cost of doing business to increase at this point in time.”
Opposition Leader Bharrat Jagdeo said at a press conference on Wednesday last that increased taxes would result in the country facing a bleak future, lamenting that the government has “no plan or vision.”
