Khemraj Parsram an employee within the Environmental Protection Agency got a special boon retroactive to January 2015 when the Ministry of Natural Resources almost doubled his salary.
Parsram came home from Barbados a little over two years ago in response to the call by the government and he immediately gained employment with the EPA as Director of Environmental Management and Compliance and Enforcement Division.
He had joined his fellow directors with a salary of $300,999 per month. But on the recommendation of the Ministry of Natural Resources and the Environment, the Public Service Ministry approved the salary hike to $501,665 per month.
The hike came even though Khemraj Parsram was assigned no additional duties.
The Natural Resources Ministry is contending that the salary hike can be explained. And it might, because in the Friday issue of the Guyana Chronicle, on page 2, there stood Parsram with his wife, his two children and his father-in-law proclaiming the virtues of the PPP/C Government. The advertisement has Parsram proclaiming that ‘under the PPP/C Government our dreams became a reality.’
And if that is the case he has every right to be proud and because after two years he can own a fashionable house, something that very few can accomplish and what most have failed to do despite working all their lives.
And the EPA is also paying Parmanand Persaud $70,000 a month and Anil Ramlall, $53,000 a month.
This payment is in addition to the salary both men receive from the Ministry of Natural Resources and the Environment
