After nine years, the Government of Guyana has warned China Harbour and Engineering Company Limited (CHEC) that it is mulling legal action against it since it has failed to deliver on works for the Cheddi Jagan International Airport (CJIA), Timehri expansion project.
In a letter sent to the CHEC Chairman Lin Yizhong on December 8th, Attorney General Anil Nandlall informed that the government will also reject any unilateral demand for additional payment by the company to complete the project.
Minister of Public Works Juan Edghill has already warned that December 31, 2020 is the “drop dead” date for the Chinese company to comply with outstanding obligations.
