New Bahamian High Commissioner accredited
President David Granger has reaffirmed Guyana’s support for The Bahamas in their reconstruction drive following the recent catastrophic hurricane season. He made these remarks on Wednesday when he accepted Letters of Credence from Reuben Rahming, accrediting him as the new High Commissioner of The Bahamas to Guyana, according to a release from the Ministry of the Presidency.
“Guyana and The Bahamas are members of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM), a community where every citizen can be secure and has the opportunity to realise his or her potential with guaranteed human rights and social justice… Our two countries have enjoyed excellent relations since the establishment of diplomatic relations on August 10, 1973. Guyanese teachers and lawyers continue to contribute to The Bahamas’ public services,” the President said.
Meanwhile, Rahming said that the new administration in The Bahamas has a lot in common with the Government of Guyana as both are committed to fighting corruption and climate change and pursuing greater economic prosperity for the peoples of their respective countries.
