The reintroduction of the Low Carbon Development Strategy (LCDS) on the new PPP/C’s development agenda has been welcomed by the Guyana Manufacturing & Services Association (GMSA) as an initiative that will add impetus to the economic advancement of the country particularly on account of its potential contribution to the agricultural sector.
An article published in the October issue of the GMSA’s newsletter quotes the Association’s President Shyam Nokta as saying that the pursuit by the present administration of the LCDS strategy “will enhance our ability to earn from payments for forest climate and ecosystem services, as we have done under the Guyana-Norway Partnership.”
