“We have to have a new business model for how our refineries operate. We should not leave it strictly to government, and I think that the government should work out a new business model where the private sector is directly involved,” Giles-Harry said.
He emphasized the need for private sector participation in the management of government-owned refineries to ensure their sustainability.
