that would allow a broader section of the population, particularly young people, to invest in national development projects. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These vehicles are designed to give Guyanese citizens, especially youth, a financial stake in the country\u2019s growth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. Jagdeo explained that these investments would offer returns that are higher than what is typically available through traditional banking systems, while also guaranteeing the safety of their investments. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The plan includes government-backed financial products that will allow individuals to fund projects while earning guaranteed returns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Through these strategic policies, the PPP\/C aims to create a more robust, diversified, and resilient economy where all Guyanese have access to rewarding employment opportunities and are empowered to succeed in the global marketplace. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. Jagdeo expressed optimism about the future, outlining that the party\u2019s approach will bring long-term benefits to the people of Guyana.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Kimberly GiddingsMarch 1, 2025 The General Secretary of the People\u2019s Progressive Party\/Civic (PPP\/C), Dr. Bharrat Jagdeo, has unveiled significant components of the party&#8217;s proposed manifesto for the 2025 elections.&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":27162,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[361,366,350],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-27161","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-business-and-economy","category-local-development","category-news"],"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ncnguyana.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27161","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ncnguyana.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ncnguyana.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ncnguyana.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ncnguyana.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=27161"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/ncnguyana.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27161\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":27163,"href":"https:\/\/ncnguyana.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27161\/revisions\/27163"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ncnguyana.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/27162"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ncnguyana.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=27161"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ncnguyana.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=27161"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ncnguyana.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=27161"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
