Discrimination, racism and economic exploitation were among the plights raised by those who turned up on Thursday at a Town Hall styled-meeting facilitated by a visiting US delegation currently in Guyana a fact-finding mission.
While the delegation met with a section of Civil Society and the APNU+AFC, the PPP/C government has insisted it will not meet with the visiting team as it considered it to be biased on favour of the opposition.
Cyril Walker, a Guyanese engineer who worked for several years in his native land and the United States told the 14-person delegation headed by President and Founder of the Organization of World Leaders, Dee Dawkins-Haigler and the audience that Guyana’s procurement laws are compromised as contracts are being awarded indiscriminately under the Ali government.
