Residents of Malali in Region Ten are set to benefit from improved access to safe and reliable drinking water as Guyana Water Incorporated (GWI) moves forward with plans to drill a new potable water well in the community.
The project, which has been allocated a budget of $18.5 million, forms part of ongoing efforts to expand water infrastructure and improve the quality of life for residents across the country.
When completed, the new well is expected to strengthen water supply services in Malali, providing households with greater access to treated water and supporting the community’s continued growth and development.
Access to safe drinking water is a priority for the government to improve public health and deliver essential services nationwide.
To facilitate the project, GWI has invited bids from contractors for the drilling of the potable water well. Interested bidders have until June 26, 2026, to submit their proposals.
The initiative underscores the government’s continued focus on enhancing water security and ensuring that communities like Malali have access to the resources needed for healthier and more sustainable livelihoods.
