The Caribbean Community (CARICOM) has extended congratulations to the Government and People of Guyana as the country celebrates its 54th Anniversary of Independence on 26 May 2020.

CARICOM Secretary-General Ambassador Irwin LaRocque in a congratulatory message to Guyana’s President HE David Granger said the people of Guyana should be proud of this milestone in their history. He noted that the nation has left its mark on the world in the fields of education, sports, diplomacy, climate change and culture to name a few.

“The Community pledges its support to the people of Guyana and to the country’s efforts in all areas including economic, social and good governance,” he added.
