Gas-to-Energy Project Under Fire
Description
Allegations are swirling around the Gas-to-Energy project, with claims that contractor Lindsayca is using a third-party firm, MOAP Inc., to pay hundreds of foreign workers — potentially bypassing Guyanese labor laws, immigration rules, and taxes. Opposition Leader Azruddin Mohamed is demanding a full audit by the Guyana Revenue Authority, warning that tax avoidance and shady payroll practices could be costing the nation. Workers, living in fear and with little recourse, say they’ve never been inspected by the Ministry of Labour, while the project’s cost has ballooned from $759 million to nearly $1 billion. Mohamed insists no foreign contractor should evade Guyana’s tax system, especially as the nation’s budget strains. Meanwhile, Labour Minister Keoma Griffith remains silent despite repeated attempts to reach him.
