The new surveyors are Meshacq Richards, Kishon Dos Santos, Justin Jarvis, Troy Histick, and Tyrek Grant. A sixth candidate, Tyrese Spiers, who also successfully completed the land surveyor examinations, will be sworn in upon his return from overseas.
In his address, President Ali underscored the importance of the profession, noting that land surveying extends beyond technical work to being a foundation for national growth. He said surveyors play a critical role in areas such as infrastructure planning, environmental management, and ensuring orderly and equitable development.
“The integrity of your work will directly influence public perception, professional standards, and the pace of our progress,” the President told the new appointees.
He reminded the surveyors that the profession carries significant responsibility, with their decisions shaping not only projects and investments but also the broader framework of development across Guyana.
