Amaila Falls Hydro-power… CCCC calling on Parliamentarians, Stakeholders to support project
The President, Executive and Members of the Central Corentyne Chamber of Commerce (CCCC) are calling on all Parliamentarians and Stakeholders to support the enactment of the Amaila Falls Hydro-power Project (AFHP) bill.
“We cannot over emphasize the importance of this project since it is vital in so many ways in transforming our manufacturing and agro processing sectors. This development in turn will create higher paying jobs and challenge our youth to be builders in every walk of life with the passing of this bill,” according to President of CCCC Leekha Rambrich.
“By not supporting this Bill we will remain underdeveloped and would leave our manufacturing companies at a disadvantage of not being able to compete with international companies since the present cost of electricity is not competitive.”
Rambrich noted that Guyana has been waiting a long time for hydropower. Now is the time to make this energy a reality. Renewable, affordable and reliable energy will help Guyana to move forward in a positive direction and enhance enormous economic development.
