Budget 2024 has the potential to transform, develop lives – Min Indar

Minister within the Ministry of Public Works, Deodat Indar, on Saturday told a group of residents from La Jalousie, Wallers Delight and Ruimzeight, communities in Region Three (Essequibo Islands-West Demerara), that budget 2024 has the potential to develop the lives of all Guyanese through a focused and targeted set of measures and policies.

In informing of the plethora of benefits available in the budget, Minister Indar said,
“We are a government that works at a breakneck speed.”
While adding that Government is doing as much as possible within its term, he highlighted that Government has had to overcome a lot of hardships when it returned to office in 2020 during the COVID-19 environment. He noted that the whole country was then at a standstill.

“We went out and we lift the country,” he said.
Further, Indar told residents that with the right policies and socioeconomic philosophy, Guyana turned out to be the fastest-growing economy in the world.
The minister noted that the string of community engagements that are ongoing forms part of Government’s agenda of having improved communication with the residents, and making sure commitments made are being fulfilled.
He reported that community engagements involving all members of Government are ongoing, and would continue across Guyana.
