Major UK-funded projects closer to realisation

Since early last year, there was excitement about the £52M ($16B) grant that Guyana has secured from the United Kingdom. The Government proposed two major projects, but there is yet to be actual construction a year later. It turns out that the UK is being very thorough. The process that is to be used will ensure that the money is spent for the purposes allocated.
The two projects chosen by this government are the Linden to Lethem Road and Stabroek Market waterfront and Vreed-en-Hoop stellings. The money is coming from the United Kingdom Government through its UK Caribbean Infrastructure Partnership Fund (UKCIF).
Kaieteur News recently had an interview with British High Commissioner, Greg Quinn who said that the process is still in motion. He said that it is unlikely that the projects will begin before 2018. Quinn said that technical design contracts for both projects are to be approved within the next few days. He said that the technical designs themselves will take a few months to be completed. Once those have been completed, there will then be a stage of final approval before the projects actually start.
Quinn indicated that the technical design will lead to a final decision on what the projects will look like. It will only be after that stage that full details of costs and what will be needed will be clear.
“But in principle, approval has been given to use infrastructure funds to support those two areas.”
The Ministry of Public Infrastructure has indicated that the first phase of the Linden-Lethem Road Project is expected to include the upgrade of approximately 122.5 km of road between Linden and Mabura Hill (including drainage) and construction of a new single or dual lane fixed bridge across the Essequibo River at the Kurupukari ferry crossing (approximately 600m long).
As part of the collaboration with the UK Government, the Government of Guyana is seeking to engage a multi-discipline and transport sector-experienced consulting firm to assist in the preparation of a two-component capital project.
While the proposed road upgrade applies only to one section of the Linden-Lethem road, the capital works on the remaining 331.5km of the laterite road will be undertaken through funding from other sources. The remaining capital works would fall under additional phases and the Ministry of Public Infrastructure has already engaged the Islamic Development Bank (IsDB) on possible funding for the stretch of road between Mabura Hill and Lethem.

These PNC jackasses turn to the begging bowl to develop Guyana, this is not sustainable as countries will not continue to fund projects in Guyana only to see pnc thiefmen pocket de money.  Guyana has enough wealth to move away from the begging bowl, in fact the PPP turned over a very strong economy and self sufficient nation to the PNC who have run the country to destitution in a mere 2 years. Now the UK have to put in place stringent checks and balances to ensure that pnc/afc thiefmen don't get their hands on the funds. But jackass Granger et al have ways and means to pull the wool over the UK eyes.

And how is this different from the PPP?  What new industries did Guyana get under the PPP aside from call centers which you show extreme derision for. And in fact we only got these as Guyanese wages are miserable so some operators based in St Lucia, Barbados and Mexico outsourced their jobs.

I hope when this project comes to fruition the builders know what the hell they are doing and this does not fall apart as seen in previous projects....then again that was when a road building business was given to Fip and another as the cable business by Alexi..I don't think those guys knew how to run a cake shop (borrowed from yugiski) but they got some big ass jobs which they never completed.

Does anyone know if any monies were returned for these never done projects?

The PPP cannot run a cake shop but they surely learned how to steal millions. So good at this that Harmon and others go to the PPP school every night to learn how to do this.

We are holding the PNC to their promises prior to attaining office. I don't see why you have to bring in PPP who did a good job using the begging bowl until they got Guyana off this dependency when they handed over the country to the PNC in May 2015.

And druggie whining about "checks and balances" Look how Norway couldn't give the $$ to the PPP direct but had to have it provided via the World Bank.

Checks and balances should be standard procedure for any nation giving money. But in the case of jackass Granger, they need double checks and balances for these infamous thiefmen.

Hopefully, these project can come to fruition for the good of the people.  The Brits owe Guyana something and they should contribute to the development of Guyana via Grants and soft loans.

So the project is in the pre pre pre planning phase for how long?  A simple road construction and stelling refurbishing project is taking so long for technical design.  The Brits using delaying tactics on the 'hard headed dunces' or what? 

 

Bottom line - NOTHING has been achieved under this Government.

Good work takes time and proper planning unlike a Chinese built plant or a Chinese built hotel or running cable or Fip's road.

So what about the promises that Jagdeo made?  Guyana was supposed to be a wealthy country with a highly efficient sugar industry. It was supposed to be a thriving eco tourist destination due to Buddy's and Marriott, and our educational system was supposed to exceed that of the rest of CARICOM in excellence. 

Oh yes that white elephant at Provident was supposed to make Guyana a major international sporting destination.  When last I checked Guyana was only beating Dominica on that score. Note that only LIAT can get you to that island.

I don't know the last day that I have heard anyone speak highly of the APNU/AFC gov't and its seen as a disappointment to most.  In fact most say the same about Granger that you do and I have said this on many occasions.

Funny you still scream that Jagdeo is a hero long after his boyfriend Roger Khan began to endure nightly rapes in that jail that the Feds put him in, and Ed Ahmad, another pretty boy, is singing loudly to escape that fate. 

Jagdeo is frantically teaching Harmon and the rest of APNU/AFC the art of theft so that the brothas at that infamous Brickdam institution  don't partake plunder his backside the way that the other brothas feast on RK.

I have already had my say on this gov't however you endlessly bray about how great Jagdeo was. I merely suggest to you that he was no better than this current lot.  In fact it was under Jagdeo that a huge trade of PPP slaves headed to Trinidad and Barbados occurred.

The worst cuss word that a (Indo) Trini kid can use against another is to call them "Guyanese" because this is the lowest of low.  Unpaid gardeners and maids, almost all being PPP supporters.  So praise Jagdeo all you wish while he left his own supporters in such dire straights that this is what they had to do!

Absolutely but to be fair, you can't blame everything on the new government and say it all happened overnight. A new government comes in and what are they supposed to do, wave a wand and fix everything overnight? They have 3 more years. They'll either prove themselves or hang themselves. For the sake of the people I am hoping for the former. Should they prove to be incompetent though get rid of them. I'll be adult and mature enough to admit I was wrong if I am, unlike some here.

Maybe Guyanese should do what some French did.  Go to the polls and deliberately spoil the ballot.  They should write in Clive Lloyd, or Kallicharran instead of voting for the two clownish groups.

Maybe THAT will send a message to the political elites.

But instead they will vote race like slaves and then whine "tings baad, wha we gun do". 

There are no longer jobs in either Barbados or Trinidad so they can forget about that as an option.  Trump doesn't want them and Trudeau only wants the educated ones, so they can forget about that option as well.

Guyana buy pig in bag. These bastards promise economic success and instead deliver hard guava season. What else is there to say?  The people should have been told that things would get worse before it got better and if they still elected them then I would stay quiet.  Instead the people were conned.

Enough about Jagdeo and tell us what is the plan of the PNC to bring Guyana out of the economic abyss that it is heading for with increased velocity. 

Note again your racial diatribe as you try to pit good indian(trini) against bad indian(guyanese).

Did I ever suggest to you that I planned to defend Granger?  In fact even BEFORE the election I called APNU/AFC a coalition of the dumb and the ambulance chasers so these folks nonperformance confirms my worst fears of them.  Mars regularly screamed at me.

I leave blind racial loyalty to you. While you rush to pretend that Jagdeo is protecting Indians against BLACKMAN both him and Harmon are laughing at you while they count their ble$$ing$.

At least blacks learned their lesson and now claim that they will not vote in 2020, unless a new credible party emerges.

I see Indians still marching like slaves behind Jagdeo, who is the man to blame for their current predicament.

I recall an incident when I asked an Indo Trinidadian if he was a Guyanese. The man cuss me good and proper. If he had a gun he would have shot me.  An American friend who I was with wanted to know why his hostility.

PPP supporters aren't popular in Trinidad as they arrive poor and often live on that island as slaves. This when your hero was president.

So finally you concede that Granger et al are an incompetent lot. Meanwhile you need to get over your obsession with Jagdeo, I don't get why you are so afraid of him as he is rumored to be an antiman.

No one blindly follows him, there is a reason, during his tenure the country during its darkest days was protected by elimination of the freedom fighters and there was economic prosperity thereafter.  Whether he was responsible or not is questionable but this is the fact of politics, those in charge are credited with the good and the bad.

Those who fled to the islands looking for work did so of their own accord. In fact you have been known to lie about the living conditions of IndoG's in the islands. In fact once they arrive, the become business owners after a few years and employ the locals. In fact if you peruse the negative news coming out of the islands about Guyanese, it is mostly about PNC supporters choke and robbing people.

I said that Granger was incompetent long ago. But with your obsessive love affair with Jagdeo you missed that.

Those who fled looking for work did so because they couldn't find decent work in Guyana. And in fact the vast majority are still doing low level work despite your pretense otherwise.

The Indians who own businesses in those islands come DIRECT from India!  I suggest that you don't rely on your fellow Indo KKK PPP frauds for information.

I don't follow why you think Granger is incompetent. He has taken a hands off approach to businesses. No crime in asking them to pay their taxes. He brought crime down. He was saddled with PPP liabilities, Skeldon and Marriott. He wasted money on SARU, granted, but that is the cost of politics.

So if you think that Granger is competent you are welcome to your view. He is incompetent and totally lacking in leadership, and Jagdeo is a thief. Jagan was a hen pecked dreamer brainwashed by a communist foreigner, and Burnham was a manifestation of pure evil.

No wonder Guyanese flock to tiny volcanic peaks and coral reefs and are treated as pariahs given the mess that we allowed our leaders to make of Guyana.

I never said that I didn't think he was incompetent for the job. I am asking you to verbalize why you think he is incompetent. I have my own views of leadership and the expectation from a president. Ramoutar was a total waste of living, Jagdeo had his faults but he brought home the bacon by hook or by crook. Granger now is a different case, so far he has not made any major blunders other than the SARU and durban park, which is minuscule compared to the PPP blunders.
