The Georgetown Chamber of Commerce and Industry (GCCI) yesterday warned the government here against signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on a number of areas with Trinidad and Tobago until Port of Spain removes non-tariff barriers (NTB) on Guyanese goods.
Trinidad’s Prime Minister Dr Keith Rowley is here at the head of a delegation for an agricultural conference and it is expected that a MoU will be signed with the Guyana Government.
“The Chamber wishes to express its disagreement with this action by the Government of Guyana. The Chamber’s concern comes in light of the fact that there are still many non-tariff barriers (NTBs) implemented by Trinidad and Tobago against Guyana,” a statement released by the GCCI yesterday read.
