President confirms Paul Cheong is new GuySuCo CEO

President Irfaan Ali yesterday confirmed that Paul Cheong is the new Chief Executive Officer of GuySuCo and he restated that 5,000 hectares of land at the Skeldon Estate will return to production.

Stressing that his government continues to work to build the sugar industry by modernizing the fields, Ali said, “5,000 hectares here in Skeldon we are going to put back into production, whilst we are doing that we will be opening up opportunities for more than 50,000 acres of new land so that we can have new land available for our farmers, we are investing in that.”

However, one GuySuCo worker present at the Crabwood Creek meeting yesterday told President Ali that there are some management issues within the estates itself. The worker who is attached to the Albion Estate told the President that while the government is making the necessary investments, managers at the estates are not seeing through the projects as they do not seem interested in rebuilding the industry.
