– Better interaction with miners expected?Operations at a mining camp in Guyana’s interiorAn Extension Service Unit geared at supporting, providing information and fostering a better working relationship with miners may be established within the Guyana Geology and Mines Commission (GGMC).Minister of Natural Resources and the Environment,Wholesale NFL Jerseys, Robert Persaud made this disclosure on Friday during a ‘New Entrants Seminar’.Addressing potential miners and miners, Persaud related that this new Unit that is being considered will add to GGMC’s responsibilities towards miners. He noted that GGMC should not only focus on the enforcement of regulations, but provide support and education.Providing an insight into the functions of the Unit, Persaud indicated that Extension Officers would be tasked with visiting mining camps and interacting with miners. They would assist miners to correct certain deficiencies in their operations.“So instead of us saying ‘I am going to write you down’, our Officers can spend a couple of hours or days and work with that miner and say ‘this is how you should arrange your sluice box’ or ‘this is how you should position your dredge’ or ‘this is what you can do better’,China Jerseys,” he stated.Persaud is optimistic that these interactions could make miners’ operations more efficient and possibly reduce the problem of low rate of recovery. He added that GGMC has different estimates of the rate of recovery ranging from 30 to 50 percent. This low rate of recovery is attributed to the lack of technology and training, among other factors.While GGMC is pondering on the creation of this Unit, the Ministry plans to host more seminars to reach out to miners. The seminars will provide miners with information on regulations in the industry for sustainable mining. It is hoped that the knowledge gained would help to cultivate a culture of self-regulation in the sector.“At the end of the day we do not want to see regulatory agency and staff as the big,cheap jerseys paypal, bad guys,Cheap Jerseys From China, but rather all of us will have the level of understanding and collaboration as to rights and responsibilities.“We must not have the situation whereby persons know what they are doing is not exactly expected of them,Cheap Jerseys Free Shipping, but would continue to do so until someone comes to either sanction them or issue a cease work order. All of us must know what our expectations are, even with or without the presence of regulator GGMC officers,” he added.This will also call for a better relationship between stakeholders so that the mining sector would be devoid of suspicion. Efforts made by staff of GGMC to ensure compliance with regulations should be seen as beneficial to the industry. However, miners should operate in accordance with regulations so as to prevent interventions by GGMC, he emphasised.

Barama Company Limited, located at Land of Canaan, East Bank Demerara, is aiming to restart its plywood operations to facilitate the local market by June. It also is hoping to ensure that exportation of plywood to other countries will resume by December.During a tour of the work site, Minister of Agriculture, Robert Persaud,Cheap Jerseys 2018, yesterday held discussions with senior management staff of Barama and the Guyana Forestry Commission (GFC) about the reopening of the plywood operations.General Secretary of the Guyana Labour Union (GLU), Carvil Duncan,Wholesale Jerseys USA, who was also present, stated that the GLU is satisfied with this result especially since the workers who no longer had jobs due to the shutdown in October, last, were unsure of their future at the company.Duncan said, “Barama had met its obligation to its workers.” Most of the old workers were very “enthusiastic” with this outcome,Wholesale Baseball Jerseys 2018, he added.He explained that many workers at Barama have been employed with the company since it commenced operations, while some have been rendering their services to Barama “for some 10 to15 years”.The General Secretary did express the thought that he hoped that the management team would be selective in re-hiring workers, having them screened first and then “put back to work” since some of them did not perform as expected.Duncan added, “Barama has social responsibilities to its workers. Some were there from the beginning…”Minister Persaud stated that with the installation of the five-tonne smaller boiler,Wholesale NFL Jerseys China,progress was evident at the wood company as it concerned the process by which plywood would now be produced.He proffered that with Barama resuming plywood production, many old workers can be “re-integrated in the system”.It was explained that when the plywood production shutdown its operations, Government facilitated the former workers with Information Technology (IT) training which lasted three months. Some of these workers “went off to other entities” after becoming skilled in the IT area.Persaud said that with the installation of the new smaller boiler and re-opening of plywood services, Barama will have to operate differently, “with a new flow”.The booming plywood sector,NFL Jerseys China, which is in strong demand with an early production in June this year, will ensure that the development and housing sectors are not “held back”.A representative of Barama stated that the company “managed to overcome its struggle and didn’t stop operations other than the plywood operations”. Come June, the former workers will have an opportunity to resume duties at the company.It was disclosed that the company is seeking to have its production rate in excess of 2,400 cubic meters per month when it re-starts plywood operations. There will be “new dimensions that were not there before” since systems have been modified.

In light of a seeming reluctance on the part of the government to disclose what the final cost of the fiber optic cable from Brazil will be, a senior economist in Guyana has pegged that project cost at about US$35M.But the government in the 2010 Budget has said that some US$44M has been earmarked for the project.The economist who spoke with this newspaper on the basis of anonymity said that if one were to check the allocations over the past two years, coupled with the fact that such a project takes around three years, it is safe to surmise that two-thirds of the money has been allocated.Leader of the Opposition, Robert Corbin,wholeslae cheap nfl jerseys china, has been questioning the rationale behind such a project. He said that his criticism was based on the fact that the Guyana Telephone and Telegraph Company (GT&T) has already undertaken such an initiative.Corbin said that the fact the government is still forging ahead with the project indicates an intention to be able to compete with the private sector as well as manipulate the sector.Opposition Parliamentarian,Wholesale Jerseys USA, Aubrey Norton, has also been critical of the project,Wholesale Jerseys 2018, saying the money could be best spent elsewhere, since GT&T has expended US$30M to land a submarine fibre optic cable in Guyana which would meet necessary needs.“The additional information about moving from Lethem to Linden,Wholesale NFL Jerseys, Linden to Providence, Providence to Georgetown,Cheap MLB Jerseys, linking in from Moleson Creek to Charity – (those) finite costs have not been arrived at as yet,” Dr Roger Luncheon said during a recent press briefing at the Presidential Complex in Georgetown.The government has said that the intention of the project is to set up a fibre optic networking system from Georgetown to Lethem,holesale Soccer Jerseys, construct a central data centre in Georgetown and set up a wireless and terrestrial network from Moleson Creek to Charity.“I think we are much stronger with what our intentions are and what steps have been taken to further those intentions…costings (sic) I am less familiar,” Dr Luncheon stated.Budgetary allocations to the project pegs it at some US$44M, with funding coming from China and India, the government had stated.

A young man from Wayakabra, on the Linden/Soesdyke Highway, took a bullet to the face,Jae Crowder Jersey, but ensured that two bandits — one armed with a handgun — left empty-handed after they attacked his home, at around 21:00 hours on Sunday night.Paul Simon,Blake Swihart Jersey, 20, almost lost his right eye after a bullet grazed his face during a bitter struggle with the men, after they had held his mother and other family members at gunpoint.But between himself and his brother, they managed to ward off the bandits, who fled into the darkness.Simon was treated at the Georgetown Public Hospital yesterday, and sent away.Speaking with this newspaper, Beverly Simon, the injured man’s mother, said that they were watching television in the living room of their single-flat wooden house when they heard someone opening the door to their generator room.She said that they checked but did not see anyone, and returned to watching wrestling on TV.A short while later, sensing that the generator would soon run out of fuel, Paul Simon left the home and went across to another relative to borrow some gasoline.According to Beverly, she became worried when her son took too long to return home. However, she did not think that anything was the matter,Wholesale NFL Jerseys China, and continued to watch the television.About 20 minutes later, she heard footsteps on her stairs and assumed that her son was back.There was a rapping on the door and still Beverly did not suspect that something was about to happen.Since she had left the door unlatched for her son, it was soon forcefully pushed in, and Beverley and the other occupants of the house found themselves staring down the barrel of a gun which was being held by a masked man.The other bandit had remained on the landing with her son, who was being held against his will.According to Beverly, the bandits had confronted her son when he left the house,Cheap China NFL Jerseys, and had used him to get into the property.“After de door push open, a gunman walk in and put de gun straight to me daughter head. He say, ‘Bring de cash and de jewellery’. None ah we didn’t respond, we just lef shock. We just end up just watching he, we ain’t say a word” the woman said.By this time, Paul Simon, recognising that the bandit who was watching him was not armed, took the chance and engaged him in a scuffle.Since Simon was getting the better of him, the bandit called for assistance from his accomplice with the gun.The gunman responded, and there was a struggle, during which a gunshot went off. Simon was hit in the face.The woman said that her other son, who was in the house, went to his brother’s assistance; and, using a small bench, he hurled it at the bandits, who were already bolting down the stairs.“Apparently like one ah dem get hit with de bench,Wholesale China Jerseys, and then they run out on the road. Dem ain’t get fuh tek nothing,” Beverly Simon said.The woman said that the men had threatened her son that they would be back, and she is taking every precaution to protect her family,Wholesale Jerseys USA, since she believes that the men are from the general area.The police were informed and an investigation has been launched.
