The numbers are showing there is money in the country. Are the people utilizing the money and supporting local business vs spending and saving it internationally?
$80k US/capita is a lot of money in circulation.
Those numbers are showing what the Oil companies are making and mostly exporting out of Guyana, from the last time I check, the nurses, teachers and public servants still believe that what they are being paid is not enough to keep up with the prices for a decent life in Guyana.

Well said. The government should be ashamed of the education fiasco. But oh hell when you’re corrupt there is no shame. You sleep like a baby. Just ask the learned doctor, Irfan Ali and Bharrat Jagdeo, or is it Dr. Jagdeo now too
…..ask the Guyanese living in Sarah Johanna

Just returned only a few are seeing such, majority still poor and struggling

Indeed...that is the truth
Lots of money flowing which causes inflation, thus people cannot afford stuff
In reply to ray
Correct, BJ on a live stating there is no inflation wages and salary have not kept up with the cost of living and yes inflation is high.

Even my son, who don't much about Guyana was saying the oil has caused too much money to be in the hands of a few people...and that money is circulating causing prices to skyrocket
