GuyExpo preparations unfolding
With Guyana’s hosting of the highly anticipated Trade Exhibition – GuyExpo – being just mere days away, works are progressing feverishly at the Sophia Exhibition Site. 
In fact, a visit at the facility yesterday revealed that a colossal makeover of the facility is in progress.
A captivating allure was observed from the western gateway to the site which showcases in bold bright designs features, which not only focuses on the event but also notable developmental projects, that have been taking centre stage over recent months.
These include oil exploration, track and field, and the Amaila Fall Hydro Power Project.
The signage also highlights the Takutu Bridge, plans for the Cheddi Jagan International Airport, the Skeldon Sugar Factory and even the national bird among other attractions.
However, this does not take away from the ‘Future City’ layout which is characterised by the several imitation buildings, some of which represent historic buildings.
Workmen were seen in top-gear yesterday as they strived to unfold an appealing change to the facility which seeks to bring life to the environment.
The works come days ahead of the annual Exhibition which will be held under the theme “Strengthening the traditional, embracing the new” and will be staged from September 27 through September 30, 2012. 
A number of entities ranging from those involved with telecommunications to fashion have already started to emphasise their presence at the Exhibition Site and are expected to appeal to both local and overseas patrons when the event gets underway.
