This commitment was among several secured by Prime Minister and First Vice President Moses Nagamootoo on his recent visit to Mexico.
The Prime Minister made these statements during his address to the graduation exercise of the University of Guyana, Berbice campus at the weekend. He explained that the government is planning to set up a creative arts institute as it recognizes the role the creative arts play in the overall development of a society.
“We must always look to our musicians, to our dancers, our sculptors, to all the people who are involved in the creative arts that they have a role to play in our country, to be able to reflect, to mirror and reproduce the soul of a proud Guyanese people,” the Prime Minister advised.
Meanwhile, the government has already started work to re-introduce music in schools.

Nagamookkoo thinks he has more power than Granger and Harmon put together. The man is so filled ith hate for those in PPP he just does not care what happens to the Guyanese masses.
Moses is fooling the people taking loans from Mexico to full the APNU ministers pocket since the economy is dead! These fools has no economic plans to develop Guyana or curve the crime rate….being pro active rather than re-active….the PNC administration is in a full mode to place Guyana under the Atlantic.
