We've been hearing a whole lot about this pharma scandal involving ministers and a businessman who goes by the of name Larry Singh. Well, I've heard only of one businessman by the name of Larry Singh. Since this is a serious issue involving the spending of millions of taxpayers' dollars we the public ought to know more about this character. I don't want to think that this person is the one I know without proper information. Please feel free to share your thoughts with us on this forum and help us figure out who is this person.

"Tropical Airways owned by US-based Guyanese, Larry Singh, received certification for passenger operations in June 1988 but only performed charter services between April to October 1988 before filing for bankruptcy.
When the same Larry Singh became involved with Guyana Airways 2000, an individual by the name of Mr. Sahadeo Sukhram, filed an affidavit opposing Singhβs involvement on the basis that βLarry Singh is an individual so lacking in character, integrity and basic honesty that he is totally unfit to serve in any capacity.β
According to Sukhram, Larry Singh had persuaded him (Sukhram) to invest $100,000 in return for four shares in the charter and a managerial position. Sukhram added that he never received any position and repeated requests for the return of his money, were never satisfied, despite a number of promises by Larry Singh.
Apparently too, another investor in Tropical Airways, Dhaniram Rambali, also objected to Singhβs involvement in Guyana Airways 2000. His objection, filed with the Department of Transportation (DOT), claimed that Larry Singh had borrowed $160,000 from himself and Nohar Singh but had only repaid $3,000 each and that Singh owed an estimated amount of $1.2 million to various investors. Tropical Airways filed for bankruptcy in 1988 but, applied for recertification in 1991was denied by the DOT."

Larry Singh is Lawrence Singh. He is from Queenstown village Essequibo Coast. He is a long term member of the PNC there. Went to the US where he married a woman whose husband was a soldier who had died and left her a large sum of insurance money. He used this to start up some business ventures, some of very questionable nature. Was not very successful in most. Developed an association with some members of the previous government while maintaining relationship with the PNC and developed relationship with the AFC. Helped to fund the coalatiob's last election campaign. Now, he is back in Guyana (not certain if he is there permanently) trying to get a great financial return on his political investment.

Too late too late shall be the cry. Three quarter million people in Guyana are suffering because of his lack of vision and maliciousness. Tell him he can create another handle and the Admins would never notice. One person on GNI has 5 and all of them are active. You can even talk to yuh self from various handles. This place is a comedy show all by itself!!!
Vish and CARIBNY, our two resident airlines knowledgeable persons, please give us the 411 on this Larry Singh.
You think Carib own Caribbean Airlines??? Hence, the name??
Nah....CARIBNY is a professional, not a business owner.

Gil,
Let's put politics aside for a moment and think about the welfare of the Guyanese people. If this man did business with previous administrations and was kicked out because of his self-serving and crooked ways don't you think it is outrageous for the current administration to jump in bed with him??

I think he should be the head of GWI with a 50% raise, a remodeled house, daily allowance of $250,000, a Toyota 4 runner(loaded), a chauffeur, and security guards. It's payback time to keep your mouth shut.

No skin off his teeth if they do. The property was fully paid for by the government while Singh fully owns it. He can choose not to ever rent it again and he would not be out a single penny.

Sophia's chief envoy to GNI, Carib deBacoo, claimed he does not know the man. This is man who worked with Hoyte and Green and yet the DeBacoo does not know him. He knows everyone but not this dude.

I can't think of anyone else who bought a property and then agreed to pay rent for the next three years to use it. But we should cut Norton some slack because he said he doesn't know how things work.
