…says country’s prosperity must benefit every citizen
Addressing hundreds of persons at the Anna Regina Market Square on the Essequibo Coast on Wednesday, President Irfaan Ali talked up his government’s investment in the development of transportation systems in Guyana while committing to ensuring that efficiency is achieved.
The President was in Region Two for the National Flag Raising ceremony celebrating the country’s 56th Independence Anniversary. This is the first time that the ceremony was moved from the capital city and Essequibians braved heavy rainfall to sit through the almost three-hour programme that culminated with the raising of the Golden Arrowhead at midnight and a fireworks display by the Guyana Defence Force’s pyrotechnics arm.
