Watched this a while back. Guyanese guy going to Suriname, and showing the difference between the 2 .
Dude was just straight shifting on Guyana
Dude said Surinamien drug dealers have class while Guyanese ones don’t. Great video highlighting how mismanagement compares to investment.
With that unprotected back track port used for illegal crossings, it seems both countries have a vested interest in smuggling.

Guyanese can now travel visa-free to the United Kingdom (UK) from November 09, 2022, British High Commissioner to Guyana, Jane Miller announced on Tuesday.
The high commissioner made this announcement at a press conference at her residence, alongside His Excellency Dr Irfaan Ali.
“Today is a historic day for the Guyana-UK relation and I am delighted to inform you that those with a valid Guyanese passport can visit the UK visa-free,” she said.
The visa waiver, the high commissioner said, “is a real sign of the confidence that the UK has in the growth of our relationship.”
Together with the direct flight with British Airways that will commence by the end of March 2023, Miller said she anticipates a transformative change to the already strong relationship between Guyana and the UK.
The visa-free travel caters for persons visiting the UK for up to six months, however, those seeking long-term stay for more than 180 days or want to work or study in the UK will still require visas.
She said there will be no ‘additional screening for Guyanese’, however, persons will have to give reasons for entering the UK.
President Ali said the idea of the visitor’s visa waiver is not only about strengthening the Guyana-UK relations and expanding the economic opportunities between the two countries, but is also important for people-to-people exchange as Guyana is working to expand its tourism market.
To this end, President Ali said Guyana will be working closely with the UK in strengthening the systems to ensure there is proper monitoring.
Further, he stated that given the increased demand for Guyanese citizenship, the Government of Guyana is working on strengthening the structures here to ensure persons are not abusing the system.
President Ali reiterated that this move has positioned Guyana in several areas, as it not only strengthens Guyana’s case for visa waivers from other developed states.
Guyana is UK’s largest trading partner in the Caribbean, trade between the two nations in 2021 amounted to 516 million pounds, and accounted for 21.6 per cent of all the UK’s trade with the Caribbean.
Recently, there were exchanges between the two states in the mainstream private sector and individual private sector groups. A UK trade mission is expected to visit Guyana in mid-November.

*good balanced article about the opportunities and the challenges, posted excerpt & full article in link at the end
June 30, 2024
Returning expatriates like Singh are emerging as one of the early beneficiaries of Guyana’s oil boom, which is calling back some of the country’s nearly 40% who moved overseas. Their entrepreneurial ventures will play a key role in determining whether the world’s newest petrostate can grow into a diversified economy, or fall victim to the resource curse, whereby commodity revenues leave countries poorer and more corrupt.
It will take years, if not decades, to know the answer. But what’s clear now is that money is flowing. And expatriates, armed with capital, skills and local knowledge, are well placed to take advantage.
From 2016 to 2023, Guyana saw net migration of 122,000 people — a significant figure for a country with a population of 780,000, about the same as North Dakota.
Guyana was the world’s fastest-growing economy in 2022 and expanded a further 33% last year, almost exclusively due to oil. The country is on track to pump more crude per person than Saudi Arabia or Kuwait by 2027. President Irfaan Ali plans to use oil revenues — expected to rise 50% to $2.4 billion this year — to create jobs now, and to ultimately diversify the economy.
Construction is leading the way. Guyana is building 12 hospitals, at least half a dozen hotels, a bauxite mine, several highways and a road to Brazil that will include 45 bridges.

Guyana gov’t, private sector host job fair for nationals in NY on July 27
Fazal Yussuff, MPA-advisor Investment & Diaspora Affairs at the Guyana Consulate New York, has announced the launch of the first Diaspora Job Fair on Saturday, July 27, at the LaGuardia Marriott, 102-05 Ditmars Blvd., in East Elmhurst from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
The government of Guyana in collaboration with the private sector is inviting Guyanese to be a part of the transformation taking place in Guyana, as the country develops at a rapid pace.
Yussuff told Caribbean Life recently, that the recruitment drive, will be attended by high-level officials from Georgetown.
The event will open with a presentation, followed by networking, and sharing of information to inspire nationals, like retirees, and others to return home to fill skilled positions while contributing to the country’s development said Yussuff.
College graduates, he said, are also welcome to attend the fair, to see how best they could play a role in the exciting career opportunities, geared towards building Guyana’s economy, while making a robust contribution to the homeland.
The LaGuardia Marriott was chosen due to its ample space for the estimated large turnout, where information will be shared on Guyana’s migration process. Nationals will also be educated about the many small, medium, and large companies operating in Guyana, while meeting with industry leaders and other stakeholders.
He said approximately thirty vendors, presenters and senior officials will be on hand to make sure all the bases are covered. A data listing of the various categories of skills will be stored. A helpdesk will streamline the day’s event.
Yusseff who was appointed to the position almost four years ago, praised President Ali for keeping his promise to bring the job fair to New York, noting that this was just one of many other recruitment drives, the commander-in-chief has planned to engage the diaspora.
“You may recall when President Irfaan Ali visited New York earlier this year and met with expatriates, they expressed an interest in remigrating, to share their skills,” said Yusseff. Skilled professionals who have retired also pledged to return home to volunteer in the country’s developing healthcare sector.
The head-of-state promised that he would host the job fair to give nationals a singular opportunity to contribute in a meaningful way.
“We want to make this event a beautiful one so that our folks here can be more knowledgeable about what is available in Guyana, and how they could contribute back home and be part of the country’s progress,” reiterated Yussuff.
According to a statement from the government of Guyana, “This job fair underscores our commitment to harnessing the talents and expertise of our diaspora community. By deploying their skills and experience, they can play a pivotal role in the country’s development and economic growth. We invite all Guyanese in New York and surrounding states to join us and explore the abundance of opportunities available in our vibrant nation.”

*Guyanese dollars
Oct 30, 2024
Guyanese people living abroad will also be eligible to collect the cash grant, as long as they are have a national ID card or passport
EVERY GUYANESE adult citizen is set to get a one-off $100,000 cash grant, the President of Guyana has announced.
President Irfaan Ali previously announced $200,000 cash grant for every household, but that idea has been scrapped to minimise potential conflicts and administrative challenges.
“This also addresses the many concerns of young people who may not yet have a family but thought…that they will not benefit from the household allocations because they were not yet the head of the household. This new initiative will now take into consideration and expand the benefit to those young professionals also,” President Ali explained.
He also said: “My government will now expand this benefit by providing a one-off cash grant of $100,000 to every citizen of Guyana 18 years and above, as of the 1st of January 2024 with a simple means of clarification being possession of a national valid identification card and/or a valid passport.”
So far Ali’s administration have launched a series of measures which will boost the disposable income for the public, including removing more than 200 taxes and fees.
Guyanese people living abroad will also be eligible to collect the cash grant, as long as they are have a national ID card or passport and can travel to Guyana for the registration process.
The grant, which is approximately £369, can only be collected in person.
Vice President Bharrat Jagdeo recently announced there is no residency requirement needed in order to receive the grant.
US oil giant ExxonMobil found more than 11 billion barrels of oil equivalent resources offshore Guyana in 2015.
The oil production in the country has been a major contributor to the Caribbean nation’s economic growth.
In 2022, Guyana’s GDP grew by 62.3%, which was the highest real GDP growth in the world for that year.
Earlier this month, President Ali also announced he will be scrapping tuition fees for the University of Guyana and at all government and technical institutions starting in January 2025.
