Historical monuments to be restored by new Government

ArchGeorgetown: As has been evident, work has already commenced on restoring the Independence Arch to its former glory, and this is one of many to come, according to Assistant Events coordinator for the series of Independence Day events, Bobby Vieira. The arch, he noted, is being restored so that the independence flag-raising ceremony set for May 26 could be done in a proper environment. Apart from the Independence Arch, Vieira disclosed that a number of other monuments, both in and out of Georgetown, will be restored soon, as he also called on the general public to respect and care for these pieces of history.
