Summary
The National Assembly just greenlit a $54.9 billion emergency budget to turbocharge housing, infrastructure, energy, and agriculture — with $19 billion dedicated to the transformative Gas to Energy Project set to slash power costs and cut fuel imports in months. Housing gets $17.5 billion to build communities and upgrade water access, while Public Works receives $8.5 billion for roads and drainage — including hinterland routes. Agriculture gets $8.3 billion, including $3 billion for retroactive GuySuCo worker payments. Public Utilities and Aviation fund remote coastal airstrips, and $500 million goes to water projects like new filling stations. Home Affairs also gets resources to beef up anti-narcotics efforts — a sweeping push to keep national priorities on track.
