President David Granger yesterday said that each capital town and Administrative Region in Guyana will have a unit of the Guyana People’s Militia (GPM).
The Head of State made the statement yesterday at the Colonel Robert Mitchell Jungle and Amphibious Training School (CRM-JATS) at Makouria in the Essequibo River, where the GPM’s 2017 training camp is underway. A release from the Ministry of the Presidency said that the aim of the training is to orient reservists to the jungle environment and to teach them basic survival skills.
The camp is being conducted simultaneously at CRM-JATS and Base Camp Seweyo on the Linden-Soesdyke Highway.
