The Ministry of Finance on Friday afternoon handed over five all-terrain-vehicles (ATVs) to the Ministry of Amerindian Affairs to improve accessibility in the hinterland regions, according to the Department of Public Information (DPI).
In brief remarks, Senior Minister in the Office of the President with responsibility for Finance Dr Ashni Singh, said this small initiative is part of a larger agenda.
“Our government is firmly committed, not just to delivering economic development in Guyana, but delivering broad-based economic development across all regions of Guyana. So, we placed very great emphasis on promoting the development of the economy, not just on the coast, not just in the main, urban centres but also throughout the coast and throughout the hinterland of Guyana, and throughout all ten of our regions,” Singh was quoted as saying by DPI.
