The Private Sector Commission (PSC) is awaiting the findings of a complaint lodged by a number of local business persons to President Irfaan Ali about the proliferation of establishments across the country by non-naturalised Chinese persons with seeming lack of regulatory certificates and licences.
“We received the complaints and are awaiting the facts as we are investigating,” PSC President Komal Singh yesterday told the Stabroek News.
Yesterday, this newspaper reported that a group of over 60 business owners across the country wrote to President Irfaan Ali in April seeking a meeting, as they bemoaned the unfair competition they face from the many non-naturalized Chinese-owned businesses that they believe are operating without requisite licences, permits and certificates.
