quote "“I expect that the Minister will try to put in some goodies because we are on the eve of the Local Government Elections, that’s what I expect he will do…in terms of the overall economy of Guyana, I don’t see a plan of the minister to stimulate this economy and to create jobs. As you know rice is not doing well on the export side, sugar is a bad state with the bankrupt GuySuCo, the bauxite production has been down and prices are down and so is the revenue from logging, the economy is not performing well as I am aware, so I was hoping to hear from him some kind of master plan but I haven’t heard it,” Gaskin said.
