Govt. to clamp down on food imports that can be produced locally

Jul 06, 2017 News 0 Comments

The Government of Guyana (GoG) intends “to break the back” of the excessive and unnecessary import of a range of food items and other products, which were either previously manufactured in Guyana, or which can be easily manufactured here.

This was according to the Minister of Finance Winston Jordan, during a recent engagement with the private sector in Georgetown.

While there are benefits for local produce, the actions are related to ...

... previously manufactured or easily manufactured.

PNC must focus on producing items for the people to choose between local and imported produce.

Why when government ban imported good that can be manufactured in Guyana only Indians are affected? We need to look at this very carefully. Why Indians cannot eat substitute on a couple of items?

This publication earlier this year, would have published a series of articles under the heading; ‘Is Guyana’s manufacturing sector dying?’ which showed several items that were being imported including rice from Pakistan; tamarind balls and coconut water from Thailand; and packaged roti and dhal puri from Suriname.

A closer examination of Guyana’s food bill will show that for the year 2015, milk was the top imported food at a cost of US$27M (approximately $5.6B) for almost 10 million kilograms (KG).

This US$27M translates to a 55 percent increase in dairy imports over a five-year period. The government – from reports – has been taking steps to reduce this.

“The industry is stymied by the absence of adequate milk processing facilities. To this end, the construction of a modern milk processing plant is planned, capable of not only processing fresh milk but also reconstituting powered milk and blending fresh milk and the reconstituted milk into UHT (Ultra-high Temperature) milk and other products,” Agriculture Minister, Noel Holder said earlier this year.

Bibiski,what's your take on the above ???

Flour and Dhall stays.

People must always have the choice to select items.

Guyana is Guyana, not America to have ample choice of food items. Indian people get too much dulaar.
