President Irfaan Ali wants the Guyanese diaspora to know that his government is working “assiduously” to build a Guyana that reflects the principles which defines its citizens and their diversity.
According to a release yesterday from the Office of the President, those remarks were made while addressing a diaspora reception in Washington, DC, on the sidelines of Ali’s official visit to the United States of America where he has since engaged a number of government officials and private sector representatives.
The president further told the gathering, “Know that the Guyana we want to build is the Guyana that must reflect the values that define us as a people.” He then explained that these values must not be individual values, but principles that Guyanese share collectively as part of the Guyanese identity.
