Investors In Dangriga Project Pack Up their Stuff
posted (September 24, 2013)
The SIF scandal may have faded from the headlines briefly but investors Emy Ramirez and Lyndon Bailey still have what the money people call, "skin in the game", or to put it more simply, money in the project. And so as SIF gets ready to send the project out for tender again, Ramirez and Lyndon Bailey are trying to get their hands on what they can to best protect their investment.

Ramirez says she wants SIF to audit her material on site or to address the fact that Kennard Smart and K&G Construction is not going to hand over any site, so in a release, she says, quote "they must deal with me the actual contractor on the ground."

But SIF maintains the position that they have no contract signed with Emy Ramirez, so they will continue to try and contact the contractor to have him hand over the project.

And that's probably why today Ramirez started packing up her stuff. All stray supplies that were on the work site were collected and put into a truck for storage. Ramirez says she wants the items audited. A release from her attorney Audrey Matura Shepherd says that she has sent, quote, "one final letter to SIF demanding that within 24 hours they tell her how they intends to deal with the assessment of her work on site and the auditing of material she still has on site."
