This monument was built in 1988 to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the arrival of Indians to Guyana. The reason was to commemorate an event that is part of the history of Guyana and to ensure the current generation remembers the toil and nature of what they had to do to get here and all the other hardship, so that we who are here today can live in unity”.“With the 175th anniversary rapidly approaching, the Indian Commemoration Trust has decided that the stage which we will put up here will not be only for entertainment, it will be open for particular purposes. It will not be for purposes that will be detrimental to the community as a whole. The stage, when it is finished will be unique, and it is expected to be completed by May 5th, 2013, which will be the day we celebrate the arrival of the first Indians to Guyana.”Dr. Persaud further disclosed that Guyana will be teaming up with the Global Organization for People of Indian Origin (GOPIO) with the aim of making the 175th anniversary “a grand occasion”. He said that organization recently created a monument at the stelling where the indentured labourers boarded ships in India, and they (ICT) are hoping to have a replica of that monument at the Indian Monument Gardens.Meanwhile Culture Minister Dr. Frank Anthony in brief remarks said it was an honour to be a part of such an occasion.“This is another historic project at the Gardens. I recall in 1988 when the Indian Monument was erected as Guyanese celebrated the 150th arrival anniversary. The monument now serves as a reminder to the current generation of the sacrifices of our ancestors made.“The history of our country is important to us all. We came from different backgrounds but we were able to create something that is unique. While we have this diversity, we’ve been able to create a very beautiful country because we’re so tolerant and we’re blessed with so many different cultures. On the 175th anniversary it’s not just to have a monument, but it is to help nurture our culture. So the stage and the other facilities here will aid in the development and preservation of our culture.”The Culture Minister asserted that they are working with other organizations to put together a programme in which “everyone will be able to celebrate”.
