Three technicians from the General Services Agency (GSA) have departed for the People’s Republic of China to participate in a month-long specialized technical training program focused on air conditioning repair and installation, as well as elevator repair and installation.
The training is sponsored by the Chinese Embassy in Liberia as part of its ongoing commitment to supporting capacity building and technical skills development in Liberia.
The beneficiaries of the program are Lee S. Wilson, an Air Conditioning Technician at the General Services Agency; Nanny Banny, also an Air Conditioning Technician at GSA; and Jerome Kennedy, a technician assigned to the EJS Ministerial Complex.
The training is expected to strengthen the participants’ technical knowledge and practical skills, enabling them to improve the maintenance, installation, and operation of critical government facilities upon their return. The initiative also underscores the growing partnership between Liberia and China in advancing professional development and enhancing institutional capacity.
Speaking on the departure of the technicians, the Director General of the General Services Agency, Hon. Galakpai W. Kortimai, expressed appreciation to the Government of the People’s Republic of China, through the Chinese Embassy in Liberia, for its continued support to the GSA and the Government of Liberia. He noted that the training will contribute significantly to improving technical service delivery and maintaining key government infrastructure across the country.
The General Services Agency (GSA) has successfully concluded a tour of five southeastern counties aimed at assessing government properties, strengthening asset management, and increasing public awareness of the Agency's mandate.
On July 5, 2026, a high-level GSA delegation led by Director General Hon. Galakpai Woizee Kortimai, accompanied by Deputy Director General for Operations Hon. Robert E. Wilson, departed Monrovia with a team of technicians from various departments of the Agency for the southeastern region.
According to Director General Kortimai, the tour was intended to assess government owned properties across the five counties, educate public institutions and citizens on the GSA's statutory responsibilities, and promote the proper management and use of government assets.
The delegation also conducted the coding of government properties and officially introduced GSA County Monitors assigned to the region.
During the mission, the delegation visited government institutions, inspected privately owned buildings leased by the Government of Liberia to accommodate public offices, and held town hall meetings with local authorities and residents in each of the five counties.
Speaking during the engagements, county superintendents, local officials, and citizens commended the GSA management for taking government services directly to the southeastern region despite the challenges of the rainy season.
They described the initiative as a significant step toward improving accountability, protecting public assets, and strengthening coordination between the central government and local authorities.
The local leaders also expressed appreciation to the Government of Liberia, particularly the Ministry of Public Works, for ongoing road rehabilitation efforts that have made travel more accessible and improved transportation for residents across southeastern Liberia.
The GSA reaffirmed its commitment to safeguarding government assets, enhancing public service delivery, and extending its operations to all parts of the country through regular monitoring, public engagement, and effective asset management.
