THE Voice of Faith Miracle Ministries is calling on the executive of the Speedboat Owners Association to launch an investigation into why twenty-four visiting members from Nickerie and Apura in Suriname were compelled to pay $1,500 each to travel from Parika to Supenaam on Augsut 19 and 20. The visitors did not know the fare and were charged $1,500 instead of $1,300.
Some even had to pay $2,000 before they learnt that they were overcharged and it left a bad impression on their minds about the honesty of the Parika-Supenaam speedboat operators.
Local church members said the overpayment should never have happened because our country is trying to promote tourism and services offered to the public should be of a high standard and in honesty, a release said.
