The Yarrowkabara Training Centre (YTC) was on Friday dedicated to the late James Singh, who was a stalwart within the forestry sector.
YTC has been renamed the James Singh Centre for Innovation, Training and Sustainable Forestry.
Singh had a long and distinguished career at the Guyana Forestry Commission (GFC), leading many initiatives and programs. He served the GFC from 1998 to June 2025 in the post of Deputy Commissioner, Commissioner from 1999 to 2019 and Management Consultant 2020 to the time of his passing.
He was instrumental in the work and development of the YTC and piloted the centre to not only focus on research but also to introduce training. The YTC was established in the 1960’s and is located at Yarrowkabra on the Linden Soesdyke Highway.
Also present at Friday’s renaming ceremony were the family members of James Singh.
