Guyana has signed a Memorandum of Under-standing (MoU) with Suriname to facilitate the joint bridging of the Corentyne River.
The MoU was signed in Paramaribo yesterday during a three-day state visit by President Irfaan Ali on the occasion of the 45th Independence anniversary of the neighbouring state.
“Once constructed the bridge will serve as a permanent physical link between the people of Guyana and Suriname and be of enormous benefit to the Tourism, Transportation and Trade sectors,” Ali told a press conference just before Minister of Foreign Affairs, Hugh Todd signed the MoU on behalf of Guyana.
