GEORGETOWN, Guyana, CMC – President Donald Ramotar says he is not in favour of an opposition request for an extension of the debate on the GUY$209.8 billion (One Guyana dollar = US$0.01 cents) budget and urged legislators to put aside their differences for the betterment of Guyana. Debate on the fiscal package which began on March 25 is due to end on Tuesday and Ramotar said he has not seen “anything during the debate to make me very optimistic that they (opposition) are ready to want to see our country move forward. “At this point in time, I think they are still trapped in their narrow political agenda,” he said during a television interview.
