Minister of Public Works Juan Edghill has called on China Harbour Engineering Company (CHEC) to adhere to its timeline for the completion of outstanding works on the Cheddi Jagan International Airport (CJIA).
“The new things to be done as well as the old items to be fixed have to be done together and if we find that there are slippages, I will have to make the necessary intervention because we cannot allow for last minute rush,” Edghill was quoted as saying by the Department of Public Information (DPI) at a meeting with CHEC officials at CJIA on Friday. “The Government of Guyana in good faith entered into that agreement with China Harbour Engineering Company and we signed an amicable settlement agreement that requires actions on both parts. We have upheld our end of the bargain as noble and as sincere. As Government, we expect no less from [CHEC],” he added.
