President Granger to address Guyana-China Business Council

May 25, 2015 News

Chinese entrepreneurs, resident or invested in Guyana are expected to meet on Thursday 28th May when the Guyana-China Business Council (GCBC) holds its first meeting for this year at the Arthur Chung International Convention Center, Liliendaal.  H.E. President David Granger is scheduled to address the Chinese business owners and invitees.
According to current Chairman of the GCBC, Clinton Williams, invitations have been sent to members, affiliates and non-members of the Council.  He intimated that the primary purpose of this special meeting is to facilitate the exchange of ideas that will craft a way forward, as well as to discuss issues specific to the conduct of business in the various sectors of the economy in which Chinese investors and immigrants are involved.
Mr. Zhang Limin, Ambassador of the People’s Republic of China, has also been invited to the special meeting.  He is expected to speak about  the bilateral trade relations and social contracts between Guyana and China which he recently said have been maintained on a sound and stable developmental footing since diplomatic ties were established between our two countries over 160 years ago.
The Guyana-China Business Council has been operating under the umbrella of the Private Sector Commission for more than 10 years.  It went into abeyance for awhile and was revived in 2012 when Williams was elected to head this Business Support Organization (BSO).
The Council played a significant role in the GuyExpo 2013 Business Forum which had been co-ordinated by the Guyana Manufacturing & Services Association (GMSA) as part of its 50th Anniversary observances.
The GCBC expects that a wide cross section of Chinese entrepreneurs will seize this opportunity to discuss the hot-button trade and social issues they face with the recently sworn-in Executive President and their country’s Ambassador to Guyana.
The meeting will commence at 2.30 pm (14:30 h).
