Bottled Water Plant Sparks Debate | Guyana News

Published 4 days, 5 hours ago
Description

Opposition MP Ganesh Mahipaul blasts the government’s $500 million bottled water plant as a waste of taxpayer money, arguing that local private companies already supply 95% of the market and that funds would be better spent fixing crumbling water infrastructure. He proposes supporting existing manufacturers instead of competing with them. While Minister Indar insists the state initiative aims to boost self-sufficiency and cut imports, critics question whether this move truly serves citizens or just bolsters state control over a saturated market.
