Seuls les véhicules légers sont autorisés à emprunter le pont de la rivière des pères, rendu à la circulation depuis dimanche matin après des travaux post-tempête. Des travaux sur ce pont qui s’élèvent à un peu plus de 530 000 euros.

Ex-broadcaster Ed Fung and former colleague at TTT Ann Winston at a function in 2017. –
THE FUNERAL of beloved veteran newscaster Ed Fung will take place at Belgroves Funeral Home in Tacarigua on October 10 from 10 am.
His body will then be cremated.
Fung’s long-time friend, colleague and protege Neil Giuseppi confirmed the arrangements.
Giuseppi, who will deliver the eulogy, said the funeral was initially carded for Thursday but was postponed to Monday, owing to logistical issues at the funeral home which were out of the family’s control.
Fung died peacefully at his home in D’Abadie, on Monday morning. He was 97. Giuseppi told Newsday, Fung’s widow, Zeta Ali-Fung, told him Fung was visibly on his “last stretch” in the weeks leading up to his death and that there was likely no significant cause of death apart from old age.
Fung’s distinct voice featured prominently for many years at the now-defunct Radio Guardian (later Radio 610 AM) – of which he was a founding member. He also worked as a television newscaster, manager, trainer and technician both at Trinidad and Tobago Television and Audio Visual Media (AVM) Caribbean Ltd, a video production house that became AVM Television in 1990, and then the Information Channel when it was acquired by the State in 1997.

Resulting from recently completed investigations carried out by the Law Enforcement and Investigations Division of the Revenue Authority (GRA), ten charges have been instituted in the Georgetown Magistrate’s Court on October 5 against Ramps Logistics (Guyana) Inc., in accordance with the provisions of the Customs Act. Chapter 82:01.
The investigation determined, among others, that during the period of 2021 to 2022, the company made several untrue declarations to the Revenue Authority.
The Revenue Authority as it continues to operate in accordance with its mandate, thereby allowing for a ‘level playing field’ for legitimate businesses and the collection of revenue, is once again encouraging individuals/companies involved in any such illicit activities to cease and desist therefrom, and bring their businesses into compliance with the nation’s Tax, Trade and Border laws.
Ramps Logistics Guyana was previously fined $20 million by the GRA for violating local customs laws. It was reported that the company, which has provided freight forwarding and supply chain management services here since 2013, acts as the agent of Motor Vessel Seacor Mixteca, and they failed to report the vessel departing Guyana.
This was in violation of the Customs Act hence Ramps paid the fine of $20 million in lieu of court proceedings being instituted against the company by the GRA. On this note, the company said that indeed there was an issue with the GRA, but claimed it was able to resolve the issue legally.
