As you would recall, since attaining a combined one seat majority in Parliament in 2011 the PNC/APNU and AFC used this position to stymie several investment projects, the most notable being the Amaila Falls Hydro Project - the single largest foreign investment in Guyana’s history. The two opposition parties together with their media extensions were successful in derailing several other investment ventures. Among the long list were the geographical and geophysical surveys in the New River Triangle by Muri Brasil Ventures Inc, Natural Globe Guyana Inc’s attempt to construct a US$30 million recycling plant and the construction of a Marriott Hotel.
It has always been clear by their actions that since attaining a one seat majority the PNC’s APNU and the AFC have been on a consorted campaign to derail progress and development in Guyana. Their actions however disadvantageous it may be to Guyana as a whole appear to be bearing fruit as can be evidenced from this ECLAC report.
