Nearly $19 billion heads straight to the Prime Minister’s office for the Gas-to-Energy push, while housing and water get $17.5 billion, and agriculture receives over $8 billion—including funds for GuySuCo workers. The Ministry of Public Works also gets a major boost for road upgrades. Despite opposition lawmakers boycotting questions to protest the MV Barima disaster, the full budget—$54 billion in capital and $5 billion in current spending—passed unanimously. The government’s priorities are now locked in, set to reshape Guyana’s energy, housing, and agricultural sectors.
