How come they never mention how much percentage the Americans gas companies getting, , Guyana already bout fifty billion dollars in debt to the oil companies, Guyana would not see any profits until that debt is paid off or if it will ever be paid off ,
@@ironhorse6688 Here's the figures: Exxon (Esso/Prod Guyana) - 45% Hess (Guyana) - 30% CNOOC(China) - 25% From the figures above, since EXXON and HESS are both US owned, we can see that America pretty much has control of Guyana's oil. Reports are between 2021-2022, they produced approximately 11 billion barrels which made the country the 7th largest in South America. HOW MUCH of those sales are considered 'profit' for Guyanaese depends on the debt payment arrangements AND the government of the day. UNFORTUNATELY, Guyana's history with corruption is deeper than her oil wells.
More than 60% of the population is in poverty. Minimum wage is set at 70,000 GYD equivalent to approximately 350 USD per month and Guyana is only receiving 2% of Royalty from oil revenues. They are selling the people a lie while the government reap tremendously. But this is what we have to settle for because the previous administration was worse.
Was Guyana supposed to develop a hundred & fifty years of technology overnight? Same as in Russia's Siberia, there was oil but the Russians didn't have the technology to develop it under such frigid conditions. The oil companies do the exploration, development and extraction and the people or the "Government" reap the rewards. For doing nothing... other than the Guyana workers employed there who reap even more direct rewards.
well you have a donkey brain, tell me which country did not have big oil company develope the oil resources? none and we are getting richer so chew on that and loose sleep.
@@kellydon2294 yes you talk sense, but some idots here cursing my country, exxon mobile is a a good company to work for and they are getting good wages,and most of all the oil money which the GOV started to withdraw in January 2022 for the first time has propelled Guyana to be the fastest GDP in the world because the have invested in agriculture and infrastructure and education.

Wow this president is weirdly honest. Most politicians would be downplaying literally everything bad about oil but he's admitting that it's a race against time
When will the taxes for small and medium businesses be lowered???? The oil money is not for the guyananes, only international big companies are taking advantage of it while guyaneses companies are being strangled with 40% corporation tax and people with 14% VAT, extremely high importation tax on vehicle. When Guyana people will enjoy the benefits of oil, WHEN????
In the eighties one US dollars was worth about thirty Guyana dollars now that same US dollar is worth two hundred Guyana dollars because the country is heavily into debt, when you are getting less Guyanaese dollars for one US dollar you know things are improving
Praying that Mother Earth and mother Ghanga blessings overflows for Guyana so the less fortunate can be beneficial and let the stop of corruption..Be a great leader so others can follow in your footsteps .Every thing giving is by god and free .Be mindful ❤

Is it about Afro Guyanese, when we had APNU in office? If so what did they do us, Afro Guyanese? Nothing as usual. If you don’t know the PNC/PNCR/APNU were in office for in almost the same amount of years as the PPPC. But every time the PNC/PNCR/APNU were in office, what did they do for us, AFRO GUYANESE. Nothing, except fulling their own pockets and grabbing land for themselves. And they also were giving most of the contracts to East Indian contractors. Look at land that the finance minister, Winston Jordan give away to BK, the East Indian businessman. Plus, the same APNU refused to give the okay to the Afro Guyanese businessman, Colin Abrams, who wanted to operate an airline from Guyana to Cuba while they were in office. Because they are black and we are black, do we have to stay gullible and not hold them, accountable. You can continue to keep your head in the sand for the rest of your life.

Should ask them how they're getting the money into their offshore accounts. And how they're still oppressing the people of the country with their taxes. While, they, the government all benefits from tax breaks and high end pensions.
I think Guyana is in a better place with PPP government as the previous AFC/APNU government was totally corrupt and did not help the people at all, only themselves. So they in a better position.
Sadly Eco tourism is not as sexy as blue sea and beach tourism like the Caribbean, without a blue sea and few beaches, its a hard sell for any other than eco. The other issue with oil revenue and building infrastructure projects is you need a population to spend and generate wealth, with less than a million folks that is going to be difficult to justify. Build it and they will come is probably the only realist solution but "they coming" would have to be a 2000% increase in population.
