-Says, “PPP just wrecked the sugar sector from top to bottom” By Kiana Wilburg The infrastructural problems plaguing the US$200M Skeldon Sugar Factory have left some viewing it as a ticking time bomb that will detonate soon; unless tough but necessary decisions are taken.GuySuCo Chairman,Dr. Clive ThomasSharing this opinion recently was Chairman of the Guyana Sugar Corporation (GuySuCo), Dr. Clive Thomas.Dr. Thomas was reminded that Skeldon’s sugar production of 39,158 tonnes in 2015 surpassed 2014’s and is now the highest production since the new factory was commissioned in 2009.According to GuySuCo’s annual report for 2015, the factory performance has improved considerably. In fact it has shown a15% improvement in the sugar recoveries.Dr. Thomas acknowledged that while this may be the case,Liverpool Adam Lallana Jersey, he said that it is still not enough to make Skeldon competitive.Members of Cabinet have since been informed that the best solution to the disaster that is Skeldon is to make quick moves to put an end to its production of sugar and seek to use it for diversification purposes.Dr. Thomas concurred that he does not believe that it is wise for Skeldon to continue with the production of bulk sugar.A DISASTER!To further cement his point regarding Skeldon, Dr Thomas shared that there are disturbing infrastructural problems within the $200M factory.“If you only knew the cost to refurbish the factory,Stitched Nike NFL Jerseys, it would blow your mind,” added the GuySuCo Chairman.Asked to say whether he agrees with suggestions to divest Skeldon,China Jerseys Cheap, Dr Thomas answered in the affirmative.He said, “Skeldon needs to be divested. We thought it would have been saved or salvaged by a mechanization project and that was not helpful. Then to get the costs down to competitive levels, moves were made to involve private cane farmers in supplying cane to Skeldon. That, too, did not work. The reality before us is that the factory has lots of faults; it is badly designed and poorly constructed.”The economist added, “The factory is deteriorating. New steel is needed, some of the furnaces don’t work, some of the boilers don’t work…, The factory is just not properly built. The cost for the repairs needed is about if not over US$60M ($12B). It is that big of a disaster.”Just recently the sugar sector received a whopping $2B in assistance from the national purse. This $2B financial support is to help meet routine expenditure and is in relation to the second crop for the sector. The cost to repair Skeldon alone would be six times that bailout.The amount needed to fix the problems facing Skeldon is also more than the $11B ploughed into the sugar industry for the entire year.The GuySuCo Chairman also revealed that an international firm was hired recently to do an assessment on the Skeldon Sugar Estate. He said that the firm in its report documented the troubling state of the factory.“The company said that that serious action has to be taken where Skeldon is concerned. The team, too,Cheap NFL Jerseys, suggested that it has to be divested if not, the whole thing will eventually collapse on our hands and we won’t be able to produce any sugar. We have to make a decision. We either divest or watch it collapse.“The PPP just wrecked the sector from top to bottom and we are trying to salvage what we can,” expressed the economist.He continued, “We are trying to find a way out but that is like trying to find a way out of a minefield. That is what the PPP left us with. Everything is in a nerve-wracking state. The sugar industry is a minefield and a crumbling edifice. But it must be made known that we don’t want to put people on the breadline. The Skeldon factory alone employs 1,789 workers. Hence we are working on finding the best possible solution to turning the factory and the sector around.”PRODUCTIONAccording to statistics from the Ministry of Finance for the first half of the year, the Guyana Sugar Corporation recorded an operating surplus of $2.9 billion, down from an operating surplus of $3 billion for the same period last year.This surplus, it said, was inflated by a $9 billion transfer from the Central Government to finance operations.Without this transfer, the Ministry of Finance noted that GuySuCo’s true position would be a deficit of $6 billion.In the future, the Finance Ministry said that all Central Government transfers will be shown as financing, instead of being included as part of revenues.Furthermore, it was noted that by the end of the first half of this year, GuySuCo’s production was 56,645 tonnes. This was recorded as a reduction of 23,624 tonnes from the budgeted 80,269 tonnes and also down from 2015’s half-year production of 81,143 tonnes.The Ministry of Finance said that this shortfall was reflected in a decline in export sales, from a budgeted amount of 58,272 tonnes to an actual of 49,Camiseta Real Madrid Tienda,278 tonnes, compared with 77,000 tonnes realized in the same period last year.It noted that the El Niño weather phenomenon, which resulted in stunted cane growth and a decline in cane yields from 57.45 tonnes cane per hectare (tc/ha) in the first crop of 2015 to 45.2 tc/ha in 2016, as well as delays in tillage, planting, and crop husbandry operations, were some of the factors that contributed to this state of affairs.Significantly, the Ministry of Finance said that sales to Caricom and the European Union (EU), of bagged sugar, as well as sales to Caricom of Packaged Gold sugar,China Jerseys Wholesale, were the most affected.It said that the industry continues to be plagued by many problems, including an increase in the prices of several inputs such as fertilizers, and these have had a negative effect on the company’s ability to realize sufficient cash to cover its operating costs.The Ministry stated, “GuySuCo has taken several steps to address some of its challenges, including negotiating with Tate and Lyle for better prices for sales to the EU market; pursuing studies to inform diversification into areas such as other crops, fruits, aquaculture, rice, dairy and livestock to reduce dependence on sugar; and rationalizing its operations for increased efficiency and productivity.”Additionally, various stakeholders within the industry recently gathered for an important meeting which saw discussions on the worrying financial future of the sugar industry.The stakeholders included a high level team from GuySuCo as well as representatives from the Guyana Agricultural and General Workers Union, the National Association of Agricultural, Commercial and Industrial Employees and the Guyana Labour Union.Kaieteur News understands that a comprehensive presentation was done by the GuySuCo team, where the 47 representatives were provided with production and financial data from 2010 to 2025.The information presented indicated a very discouraging future for the sugar industry, where the Corporation is projecting losses of approximately $14.195 Billion in 2016 and further losses of $13.758 Billion in 2017.The Unions’ representatives were encouraged to submit their thoughts on how the industry could secure the future well-being of the approximately 17,000 employees and their families,Nike Air Max Valkoinen, as well as ensuring the profitability of the business.It was subsequently agreed that a team comprising representatives from the three Unions would meet with a team from GuySuCo to get a deeper appreciation of the financial and other data which were provided.

And according to Minister of Health, Dr Leslie Ramsammy,Bill Lee Jersey, the abuse of alcohol can also lead to domestic violence, destruction of social relationships and road accidents.He has sought to ascertain that the line between moderate use and overuse is very thin and abuse of it can easily sneak into the lives of persons, of any age,Authentic Nike NBA Jerseys, race or creed.In Guyana, diabetes and hypertension are two of the main chronic diseases, and alcohol is one of the main contributing factors, he disclosed.

It was a big night for local media practitioners when United Nations Guyana held its first ever media awards in recognition of the media’s role in keeping developmental issues on the agenda.The event,Supply Cheapest Soccer Jerseys, which was held on Saturday evening at the Georgetown Club, coincided with the UN’s 70th anniversary.About a dozen local media workers received awards for their stellar coverage of the developmental work of UN agencies, funds, and programmes in Guyana. Prizes were up for grabs on 11 social issues: HIV and AIDS; human rights; food and nutrition security; involvement of youth and women in agriculture; health; child protection; youth and adolescent development and participation; sexual and reproductive health; adolescents and youths; the environment; and poverty and governance.Additionally, the competition was open to all sections of the media – print,Jeff Green Jersey, radio, television and even online.The print media copped the majority of the prizes on Saturday. Amongst the winners was Kaieteur News reporter Desilon Daniels for the print media poverty and governance category; Stabroek News reporters, Gaulbert Sutherland (print – human rights), Roger Wong (print media – food and nutrition security),Argentina National Soccer Team Jerseys, Sharda Bacchus (print media – child protection), and Thandeka Percival (online media – food and nutrition security). Guyana Chronicle reporter, Tajeram Mohabir,Authentic NBA Store, also copped two prizes (print media – health and involvement of youth and women in agriculture).There were also honourable mention awardees: Kaieteur News reporters Desilon Daniels and Sharmain Granger copped mentions in the print media section for the sexual and reproductive health and HIV and AIDS categories respectively, while former KN reporter Nicholas Peters, received a mention in the youth and adolescent development and participation category. Other honourable mentions included Tamara Rodney of Demerara Waves, Ravin Singh of the Guyana Chronicle and Zoisa Fraser of Stabroek News.The majority of winners for the UN Guyana Media Awards 2015 with President David Granger and UN Resident Coordinator Khadijah MusaSutherland was also awarded the top prize for the most submissions of a consistently high nature while Stabroek News copped the award for the media house with the most entries.During her remarks, Chief Judge, Paloma Mohamed,http://www.authenticjerseysnfl.us.com/Authentic-Nike-Baltimore-Ravens-Football-Jerseys/, explained that the awards were based on the premise that the promotion of the development works of UN through the media is necessary in raising the public profile of the organisation.“The success of such an awards programme is best exemplified by the quality and frequency of coverage of developmental information in the media. As primary functionaries of information dissemination, all media workers and journalists have a huge responsibility to analyse situations and to keep developmental concerns on the national agenda.”In explaining the criteria for the awards, she said that overall areas were common to all of the different sections. These areas were factuality, balance and accuracy, analysis, overall impact and style. The judges also used a grading scale to determine the level of prizes awarded. Entries falling under the 50 points were deemed below average; those from 51 to 60 points were deemed fair, while those from 61 to 70 were considered above average. Entries ranging from 71 to 80 points were considered very good while entries above 80 points were deemed excellent. The judges decided that only entries of the highest quality would be awarded the full prize.“The rationale for this was that any entry scoring an average of 71 and above – very good to excellent – would be deserving of the full prize,” she said. She said any score below 71 points but above 50 points could be considered honourable mentions.Judging occurred from October 11 to October 15 and involved four judges. Besides Mohamed, the judges were veteran journalist and Demerara Waves founder, Denis Chabrol; Deputy Programme Director of Communications at CARICOM, Volderine Hackett; and University of Guyana Communications Studies lecturer,Braden Holtby Jersey, Terrence Esseboom.In total, there were 45 entries: 22 of these were from the print media, 12 from radio, three from television, and eight from online. Unfortunately, she said, the radio and television entries were not included in the competition since these entries did not meet even the relaxed criteria.“Stories submitted were generally poignant and strong,” Mohamed said, before continuing, “In the words of judge Volderine Hackett, they called attention to some social ills in far-flung places such as in ‘Welcome to Angoy’s Avenue’ or to pressing problems such as teenage pregnancy or the slow development of Lethem or the extent of palm mite problems in Guyana.” She said many of the stories were scored within three points of each other.However,J.R. Smith Jersey, she indicated some problems with submissions, including the use of file photos, lack of hyperlinks in online articles, and photos taken from the internet without adequate citing. There were also problems with confusing and weak story leads.“This would be very confusing for readers. Reporters must have had a very clear idea about what the news story is about and they must focus on that issue before they published,” she said. She said too that “Editors must rule” since the news entity had a responsibility to set developmental agendas and be gatekeepers. She stressed that errors noted could have been avoided if editors had provided more guidance.The awards were preceded by both a sensitisation workshop for journalists and a brunch for editors and owners. These activities had been aimed to create a bridge between the makers and shapers of news.

Some of these ‘special reasons’ which are offered in the High Court by lawyers include terminal illness and their client’s life being under threat in prison.It was also pointed out to this publication that very often proper information is not passed on to the judge in the High Court during the bail hearing.“What you find is that the judge is not made aware that the accused has similar matters before the lower court.”In addition, the new legislation which says that gun crimes are non-bailable offences is also being defeated by the action of the High Court, since many repeat offenders are securing bail there.Not long after, they are again in the magistrates’ court charged with similar crimes or in some instances worse crimes.Only recently the Government of Trinidad and Tobago introduced legislation which will see repeat offenders getting life imprisonment for gun crimes. To this, one local legal officer who spoke off the record, said that the current administration should start looking at that possibility for Guyana.“The local judicial system is facilitating the lifestyle of criminals, they commit the crime,Cheap NFL Jerseys Wholesale, spend a few days in prison,Fc Bayern Trikot, and get bail in the High Court…Out on bail they commit more crimes and the cycle goes on.”In the past,Cheap Jordan Shoes Australia, Home Affairs Minister Clement Rohee had flayed the country’s judicial system describing it as failing the victims of crimes and undermining the hard work of the law enforcement agencies.
