Request for Pension Increase for GuySuCo Pensioners
Dear Editor,
This letter is intended for the attention of the Minister of Finance Dr. Ashni Singh on behalf of all the junior and senior staff pensioners of GuySuCo. For the past 5 years, pensioners who are above the minimum of the NIS pension have not received any increase in their pensions and they are hoping that he will give them a substantial increase in this year’s budget to cater for the past 5 years of no increase. The same goes for the GuySuCo Steps pension scheme. Junior and senior staff pensioners have not gotten an increase in their pension for the past 15 years, so please, rectify this two anomalies in this year’s budget. Thanking you in advance.
Sincerely,
Imtiaz Baccus
