–ensures Santa Rosa Village on development track

THE Village Council of the Moruca sub-region of Santa Rosa Village, in Region One (Barima-Waini), was recently presented with three pick-ups and a back-hoe by Minister of Amerindian Affairs Pauline Sukhai. The vehicles are part of Government’s commitment to the development agenda of Amerindian villages across the Hinterland, and are not the first batch provided to the sub-region.

Over the past three years, the Amerindian Affairs Ministry, on behalf of Government, has contributed a variety of vehicles — including tractors, minibuses, boats and engines and pick-ups.  In addition, two years ago, a pick-up was provided to enable the enhancement of the security aspect of the village.
According to Minister Sukhai, the villages of Waramuri, Karaburi, Kamwatta and Kwebanna were also provided with a minibus each, and that the current batch of pick-ups was intended to help the Santa Rosa Village Council with its administrative work.
