Actually the rate is very low compared to the rest of the Caribbean and among the lowest in the world,even lower than some countries that dont require a US visa..

No brain drain here pally..


And our middle class is thriving and very large..T&T doesn't need an oil windfall to maintain its status as leader in the region..as the cock crows every morning from Guyana to Jamaica cash registers in T&T go k-shing k-shing..

Give it up padna..

Tell us about your homeland that you and almost every other middle class or potential middle class person has abandoned..

It was an honest inquiry for the poster to elaborate.


Tell us about your homeland that you and almost every other middle class or potential middle class person has abandoned..

Guyana is brain drain. that is an understatement.

Our PNC leaders in the most barefaced in the history of mankind. It is supported by posters here.

With the oil, Guyana has the potential to become the brightest star in the world if it is allowed. It has the most envious natural resource in the Caribbean. It is poised to fail or succeed.

A large middle class is an indicator of a balanced society if it does not ignore the lower class.

From what I can see, an ignored middle class develops contempt. That is manifested by crime.

As soon as someone in Guyana has an education or some money, they are gone

I suspect that will change soon.

Many great empires in history fell due to cockiness and ignoring their responsibility to the world around them.

Meanwhile, one in five of the native-born population of Kazakhstan, Syria, Trinidad and Tobago, Macedonia and Portugal live in other countries.


Found this shock genuinely.

A
recent study by the Pew Research Center, using 2015 data from the United Nations, shows that today, nine countries have lost a fifth or more of their population.

One-third of those born in Bosnia-Herzegovina are now abroad, while 28% of Albanians and Jamaicans have also left their native home. In Armenia, one-quarter of the birth populations lived abroad in 2015.

Meanwhile, one in five of the native-born population of Kazakhstan, Syria, Trinidad and Tobago, Macedonia and Portugal live in other countries.


I can look for 2020 data brb

Another link

Trinidadians tend to move to countries in the North to improve their standard of living and gain qualifications – 65.9 per cent live in the United States; 18.1 per cent in Canada; 8.4 per cent in the United Kingdom; and 1.3 per cent in Jamaica.
57.7 per cent of Trinidadian migrants obtained certifications and qualifications while living abroad.
The flow of remittances to T&T is one of the major benefits of migration to local households. But the study found that 29.4 per cent of respondents admitted to sending remittances only “in emergencies or on special occasions.”


Trinidad are getting educated abroad and not sending remittances on de regula
Means severing the bond

It is unfortunate that we have this kind of behavior among us, even if it is a minority, but it is our reality.

Meanwhile, let us admire the beauty, natural and man made, in the English-speaking Caribbean. Thanks, problemjay, and others who love their country and allow us all to share that love.
