THE Guyana Relief Council has received a $1M donation from Bai Shan Lin International Forest Development Inc. yesterday at the GRC head office.
According to Administration Manager of Bai Shan Lin International Forest Development Inc., Hao Ning, the entity is a Chinese-owned enterprise duly incorporated under the laws of Guyana.
He said that the company has been in Guyana for the past four years. “We believe there is great potential in Guyana, and decided to invest US$100 million within the following three years to establish a modern wood processing plant; it’s a processing and value added plant.”
The manager revealed that the company will hire and train more local Guyanese, while boosting the development of the local economy, while contributing to the development and construction of Guyana.
“The purpose for this donation is to give back, to thank the Government and People of Guyana for their assistance and support, and to call more persons to join in this and similar donation, to offer their love, to share with those who are in need.” Hao Ning stated.
The Chairman of the GRC, Yvonne Hinds, said the GRC is thankful for the donation to the humanitarian services which are provided by the GRC.
She disclosed that the donation is worthy of emulation because the company does not only practice sustainable forest management, it also give back to society.
The chairman added the donation will assist the families throughout the ten regions of Guyana who are poor or who struggle from natural or man-made disaster and other calamities experienced by society.
