specific to the conduct of business in the various sectors of the economy in which Chinese investors and immigrants are involved.
The Guyana-China Business Council has been operating under the umbrella of the Private Sector Commission for more than 10 years. It went into abeyance for a while and was revived in 2012.

Chinese entrepreneurs resident or who invested in Guyana are expected to attend this special meeting on Thursday.

This newspaper understands that Mr. Zhang Limin, Ambassador of the People’s Republic of China, has also been invited to the meeting. He is expected to speak about the bilateral trade relations and social contracts between Guyana and China which he recently said have been maintained on a sound and stable developmental footing since diplomatic ties were first established between our two countries over 160 years ago.

The GCBC expects that a wide cross section of Chinese entrepreneurs will seize this opportunity to discuss the hot-button trade and social issues that concern them with the recently appointed Ministers of Government and their country’s Ambassador to Guyana.
The meeting will commence at 2:30 pm (14:30 hrs).
