DEAR EDITOR,
I read in yesterday’s newspaper (April 2) that the Government intends to spend some US$22.5 million on the proposed airport expansion and it raises several questions as follows:
1. Does Guyana need an airport expansion at this time?
2. Has a feasibility study been completed for this project which demonstrates that the benefits will exceed the costs of nearly US$200 million?
3. Who did this study and were the results made public for scrutiny and review?
4. What is the general logic behind this new airport project – just to spend money and say we have a new airport?
5. Could that money be spent on something different which will provide more benefit to the Guyanese public – schools, hospitals whatever?
6. Why shouldn’t the opposition not approve this expenditure? JSS
