Groundbreaking ceremony held for beautification project at Anna Regina

In a dedicated endeavour to enhance the allure of the Anna Regina Township in Region Two (Pomeroon-Supenaam), First Lady Mrs. Arya Ali participated on Thursday in a groundbreaking ceremony that took place at Independence Park, adjacent to the Anna Regina High Bridge, in the heart of the township of Anna Regina on the Essequibo Coast.

This is yet another beautification project the First Lady is undertaking for the benefit of people all across Guyana.
During her address at this event, Mrs. Ali explained at length that this endeavour forms a pivotal component of a nationwide campaign directed towards augmenting the visual appeal across all administrative regions.
She underscored that similar initiatives have already been undertaken in Regions Three, Four and Six, and expressed enthusiasm for inaugurating a similar initiative in Region Two.
Mrs. Ali underscored the communal ownership of the project, and urged residents to uphold and cherish the park. “Preserve its cleanliness, refrain from vandalism. This park serves as a communal asset for Region Two, thus it deserves our collective stewardship,” she urged.
Further, she highlighted the collaborative nature of the project, involving the Office of the First Lady, the Public Works Ministry, and their benefactor, Sheriff Guyana.
She disclosed that this project would feature modern amenities, including an outdoor gym, complimentary Wi-Fi, seating arrangements, restroom facilities, ornamental lighting, security personnel, and surveillance systems to deter vandalism.
Mayor of Anna Regina, Devin Mohan, has articulated that the project would significantly contribute to the town’s progression, while offering a tranquil space for its citizens. He declared, “The project’s impact will be widespread across the region. Over recent years, we have witnessed substantial development, and this initiative serves as a continuum of that positive trajectory.”
He also extended gratitude to the First Lady and the project’s sponsors for bringing this beautification endeavour to fruition in Region Two.
The groundbreaking ceremony was graced by the presence of Regional Chairperson Vilma De Silva, project sponsors, and other regional dignitaries.
