"Guyana is firmly committed to the rule of international law, to peaceful resolution of controversies, and to the power of diplomacy.

But, make no mistake of it: fortified by the strong voices and resolute support of our international partners, Guyana will not allow Maduro and Venezuela to threaten or violate our sovereignty and territorial integrity.

We appreciate greatly the international solidarity and unwavering support that have been extended to us by our international partners on this matter. We will remain in close contact with our partners in protecting Guyana’s interests and maintaining peace in our Region.”

—-Command-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, His Excellency President Dr Irfaan Ali

Director of the GTA, Mr. Kamrul Baksh highlighted the importance of teamwork and the ongoing investment in the agency's growth. The steps taken in 2024, especially in the team’s human resource capacity, played a big role in moving the GTA closer to achieving its strategic goals.

As part of the usual retreat agenda, Director Baksh guided the team through an ice breaker session, and a discussion on employee engagement and organisational well-being. The respective divisions within the agency also presented their achievements and challenges from 2024 and their goals for 2025.

As part of the Region 8 Circuit Development Project, the Guyana Tourism Authority (GTA) continues to identify each community's Unique Selling Point (USP) through community engagement and attraction/product assessment. Recently, an assessment led by Clyde Edwards to Tuseneng Village highlighted the village's potential tourism attractions through a tourism awareness workshop.

Tuseneng, formerly known as “Sak Walatoi,” is a destination with the potential to attract a large cultural traveller following. Potential activities include Parakari and Casiri-making and sampling experiences, the bull-horn-blowing competition, and tangerine picking at Uncle Luke's.

The GTA will continue to provide technical guidance and support in 2025 to ensure the village channels its resources towards tourism development for shared community benefit.
