GEORGETOWN, Guyana, CMC – Guyana Wednesday pledged “strong political will” in dealing with drug trafficking and money laundering. “We also appreciate how important it is in addressing macro-economic stability and also in addressing the rumours and allegations about money laundering and the parallel economy in Guyana; the rumours seem to be getting more intense these days,” President Donald Ramotar told a Financial Crimes Stakeholder workshop. Ramotar told delegates to the conference, co-sponsored by the United States, Britain, Canada and the European Union, that Guyana needed to address corruption at both the public and private sectors.
