It is no surprise to me that Minister of Health, Dr Leslie Ramsammy, has been appointed President of the World Health Assembly. This is an outstanding achievement for the Minister that is well deserved and will open new horizons for the health sector.

It is my firm belief that the Minister would succeed in his new portfolio and perform excellently like every other position or responsibility that he has been given.

In Guyana, the evidence of Minister Ramsammy’s dedication and commitment to the health sector is evident to all.

Health care in Guyana has never seen such tremendous development and this is because of the unwavering commitment by this man, through the Government, to ensure the people are offered the best health care.

Ramsammy is a true son of the soil and it is commendable that his work is not only recognised in Guyana but the world over. Guyanese should be proud to know that such an extraordinary hard-working and qualified Guyanese is being honoured to hold such an important position.

I am quite confident that there is a brighter future waiting to unfold in the health sector.
