As Movietowne Guyana celebrates its fourth anniversary this month with a series of giving back activities, its Chairman and Founder Derek Chin is hoping that the legal impediment on the land nearby would be cleared up and he could put in an offer for a staggering US$500 million “dream” development or that government greenlights a Guyana DinoWorld project.
Chin is Guyanese by birth and had lived during his childhood on Church Street in Georgetown where he was always fascinated by the nearby cinemas.
“I had this Riverwalk of Georgetown [concept] planned for next door, which would make the country an even greater destination. It is like the riverwalk in San Antonio, Texas; this man-made river that goes to the hotel. It has this seductive lighting and great ambience…. that was my dream and still is,” Chin told the Sunday Stabroek in an interview on Friday.
