The Georgetown Chamber of Commerce and Industry (GCCI) has taken note of the announcement by President, His Excellency, Dr. Mohammed Irfaan Ali, in consultation with the Chairperson of the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM), regarding the General and Regional Elections (GRE) 2025 on September 1, 2025. The Chamber urges all political parties to ensure that they abide by the Elections Code of Conduct and operate with respect for the rule of law and the tenets of democracy.

The Chamber also urges the utilisation of credible and impartial officials by GECOM and its secretariat in the conduct of the elections, as well as timely results.

The GCCI continues to stand as a trusted and credible organisation, and is in the process of being accredited as an Observer Body for the upcoming GRE. The Chamber underscores the importance of a democratic and transparent electoral process to the country’s stability and continued development, and hereby cautions political parties against the promotion of inciteful behaviour that would serve as an impediment to free and fair elections and the issuance of timely results.
