Django, at least this sale will give "dem Skeldon coolies" hope of providing food and shelter for their families. By 2020 if the owners decide to cut their losses and run, maybe the PPP will come to the rescue again. That is if the riggers and friggers don't RIG again.

The PPP Government lost millions on the enterprise and this Government cannot run it. So I believe that it would be feasible to sell it.  You have to give credit where credit is due.

Government got their hands in too much business,time to divest,the lefties hold on and pump too much to keep some afloat.

In some countries, it's best that the government keep their hands on some of the industries.

The purpose of the government is to prop-up businesses in difficult time, it is more economical ,failing which they have to pay unemployment pay and not receiving any tax dollars and going that route can also encourage lazy people, that is sit at home and collect. But if the government lacks the expertise in managing certain businesses it is fair they subcontract the work or sell the business. In the Skeldon Estate situation there was not an open tender, so one will suggest there was not fair play. Where is the transparency.????

Good move....

At times your answers amazes me, an eye for an eye mentality , this is not school yard play time. When the PPP sold the bauxite company, did you know the PNC machinery was constantly causing disruptions at all sectors of the economy, the black men in Linden was on rotating strike making all kind of demands, they tried doing so in the Sugar industry but the union was smart. You mentioned that you have families in Guyana, so don't you want what's best for them, some how you thing that sugar employs only Indians, well you don't know, I grew up on sugar,most of the factory workers are Blacks and when Burnham kicked out the British he replaced them with many unqualified Blacks, "square Pegs in Round Circle" in Management , also the shovel gang, carpenters were Blacks.So some of the failures in the Sugar industries goes back to the time of nationalization where many ill trained fill qualified positions. The question is ,Why would someone else can come and make success of Skeldon Estate and the government cannot think of doing the same, the profits will be going to Trinidad.

look, the PPP could not manage it...what makes you think the PNC can (especially since you think the PNC worse than the PPP)

Ray, your honesty is a very bright light. Thank you Bhai but I knew that a very long time ago.

GADAHAS are not capable of governing.

The PPP was managing SUGAR and RICE for donkey years, they NEVER sold out. From day one the PNC took power their agenda was to neglect Rice and destroy Sugar. Look presently there is extensive vetting of the Trump appointees to see weather they can do the job, But in Guyana, the qualification is Black and PNC party card, you have an agriculture minister who does not know SUGAR CANE from BAMBOO.

Except Guyana, Where the Government, no matter who they are, screw up everything they put their hands on and rob the treasury.

Kp,

My response to Skelly was a joke,don't take it serious.

I knew the Sugar Industry i lived nearby,my parents worked there,I also worked there few years in my early 20's,it was a blessing in disguise,I quit when GAWU eat their words[was a causal representative].I am aware of all the square pegs in round hole that caused the Industry down fall.

The issue is the PPP came in to power and tried to uplift the Industry,apparently it seems not much have been accomplished, it's constantly bailed with billions of dollars,can the country afford it ??

My opinion Privatization of the Industry is the way to go.

Privatization  is a process  of continuing the production of sugar by a non government ownership. In this case thy will stop the production of sugar and move in to uncharted waters.

The PNC left out wealthy overseas Indo Guyanese who could have been able to afford this purchase. I am very upset that this offer was not made to wealthy overseas Indo Guyanese. I am Very mad.

nah...wealthy overseas Guyanese just looking to show off

The question is what are they going to pay for the estate? Is the PNC filling their pockets at the expense of the public by giving away state assets as a discounted price in return for bribe money?

Why government business has to be a tit for tat? Government decision does not always serves the greater good of the prople, but people must also get use to new things.

Government giving away the state assets in a fire sale for personal gain is the business of the people.
