One engineer costs GuySuCo in excess of $3M monthly

…Corporation also pays for children in boarding/private schools in London, Guyana

An Engineer and expatriate at the Guyana Sugar Corporation is being paid salary and allowances amounting to $2.5M monthly in addition to what could be considered perks, thus taking his monthly earnings beyond $3 million per month.
This newspaper has been reliably informed that the Engineer, Henry Lung-Kit, was retained from the previous management team, Booker Tate.
Outside of his salary, Lung-Kit is also afforded the same privileges of the company’s Chief Executive Officer Errol Hanoman, including furnished house, vehicle, medical expenses, airfare for him and his family. He also receives boarding school fees for a child in London, England and another child in Guyana who attends private school.
Lung-Kit has been employed with GuySuCo close to 10 years now.
This newspaper on Sunday last reported that Hanoman also receives a “super-salary.”
The Alliance For Change had subsequently lashed out at the cash-strapped company’s disparity in the salaries paid to its employees.
The party’s chairman Khemraj Ramjattan said, “This is outrageous in the context of GuySuCo which is in a pathetic financial situation…This disparity as to what the bosses get and what ordinary sugar workers get is most extreme!”
