Kaieteur News – Five companies, including two local firms, have submitted bids to design, build and finance (DBF) a cultural market at Palmyra, Berbice, Region Six.
This was revealed at the recent opening of tenders at the National Procurement and Tender Administration Board (NPTAB) office.
This project is being undertaken by the government through the Ministry of Public Works.
President Irfaan Ali announced the construction of the facility during an Emancipation celebration held at the New Amsterdam Technical Institute a few weeks ago.
The cultural market will serve as an educational and talent showcasing hub for the country.
Quoted in a Department of Public Information (DPI) article, the President said, “As we build the new stadium, and as we build facilities around the stadium, and as we build hotels, an important part of why people will come to Region Six is to be part of this national cultural market.”
“This will be a symbol of the importance of culture in bridging gaps and bringing people together. The importance of culture in economic and social revolution. The importance of culture in developing healthy lifestyle … [and] the importance of culture in celebrating the unity of our people and our country,” he added.
