New Maritime Safety Audit Launched | Guyana News
Description
After the deadly sinking of the 80-year-old MV Barima ferry, President Ali has assembled a high-powered audit team to overhaul maritime safety in Guyana. Led by Dr. Ivor English, Colonel Julius Skeete, and Captain Joseph Lewis—all seasoned maritime and defense experts—their mission is clear: enforce stricter compliance, strengthen oversight, and prevent future disasters. The tragic July 18th incident, which killed dozens and was blamed on overloading and a rogue wave, has ignited urgent calls for reform, with crew members charged and a government probe underway to ensure no stone is left unturned.
