Georgetown: Security firms and services gathered in a meeting recently with Local tech giant, STARR Computers Inc. to underscore new technologies available to enhance security measures for clientele and society at large, while underscoring the need for a review by the legislative of the taxation systems for electronic security.
The event was held at the Boardroom at STARR Computers of 59 Brickdam, Stabroek office.
Michael Mohan, the President of STARR computers said “we have seen the floodgates opened for growth, development and employment opportunities in the computer industry over the past two decades by simply passing legislation in Parliament for duty free exemption to computers. And, it is our belief that if the same privilege is offered by government to the people of Guyana for a few years on importation of security electronics, this will give the industry a major booster. This will ultimately create new employment, generate Government Revenue from earned income, reduce crime, and support economic growth.”
Adding that Video Surveillance Solutions will deter and monitor criminal activities, increase employee’s productivity and provide law enforcement with critical information from site incident Mohan noted that at a time when Guyana is experiencing an emerging economy through international Investors, criminal elements from everywhere will also seek their fortunes through crooked means. And, the time has come when all local Security Agencies and private employers needs to start talking, review and upgrade their security response methodologies.
Underscoring that the profitability stakes are so high, that if the locals do not join forces and recognize this new market demand, they stand to lose their opportunity to International Security Companies, President of STARR computers said with a joint partnership between the Public and Private stakeholders along with modern technologies, the security profession can rise to its true place in society, and new gateway to employment will be generated.
Mohan said if the local security services lapse in stepping up in their role, the international security agencies would eventually have a major piece of the marker shares.
He further disclosed that earlier in the week there was also a seminar for students of the technical institute which gave an insight on a career opportunity within electronic security, which will make it easier for companies to recruit persons within the specified field to bolster the security sectors’ development.
STARR Computers Inc (STARR) has taken up the challenge in Guyana to promote Alternative Energy and has partnered with international manufacturers and engineers to provide quality service for consumers in the field of renewable energy, electronic security and computers amongst other features.
