President Irfaan Ali says that all new koker doors will be stainless steel.

The Department of Public Information (DPI) said that he made the announcement on Wednesday after a visit to the site of a collapsed koker door at Canal Number One, West Bank Demerara.

DPI said that Ali coordinated a team from the National Drainage and Irrigation Authority (NDIA), GuySuCo, and GAICO Engineering to promptly install temporary stop logs to prevent water from overtopping.
