I watch this video and and waves of nostalgia flow over me. There were lots of political strife then too. People suffered a lot under Burnham and his cronies but people tried to rise above it.Now Burnham's right hand army man is defying all odds to take us back to that era.
Why can't we watch video of Guyana and reminiscence nostalgic of our homeland and the good times in our upbringing without someone interjecting politics.
Plenty drug start trafficking under PPP. EVERY overseas news was shipment of coke from Guyana. The PPP government give that country a bad name around the world.
Although there was a dictatorship during the 70's GT remained pretty clean.When the vendors were allowed to ply their trade everywhere and the minibus took over then everything went down. The economy went south , food shortages, the city stopped being properly maintained. By the 80's it was a struggle to survive .So everything gradually nose dived.
How old were you..,Ms.Camille..,I was 13 years old., Anything or videos shot before..,May 23rd..,1985..,Brings back memories for me..,And I feel good because I was still in.,G.T.,
We may badmouth burnham but he introduce free education from nursery to university level.I met him and shooked his hands as a teenager in kitty.A warmth person.RIP
@pamelasnow4116 I'm looking for archive of Guyana - footage and photos for a documentary. I'd love to speak with you about this footage. Thank you so much, Molly
Wow, what happened to us? Back then times were harder (with Burnham starving Guyana) but everything looked so clean. I AM SHOCKED HOW LE REPENTIR CEMETERY WAS CLEAN! Today it looks so gross. No high bushes on the streets, parks...The Sea Wall so neatly kept. Some nations progress, others...
Burnham was good for Guyana protecting its resources from foreign pilfering unlike the current Government who are filling their pockets by taking kickbacks and giving the resources away. You people were the problem and that's why you were starving. If you had planted your foods, mind your poultry etc and get off your lazy a$$ ^# then you would not be complaining .
My family left in January 83. And I still remember like it was yesterday and hands was very clean. Today it's a filthy congested and the text book definition of what a third world country is.
When the roads started to build in Guyana,the only road that PPP build is kind of top and that little peace of road on the East back because of the cricket world cup that took place in 2007, they do up that area and after that they gone again. A wire
Burnham was and still the best President.... he intended for Guyanese to have self sustainability.... the Guyanese dollar was more valuable than it is now.... mass migration has increased under the PPPC bcuz of racism and lack of jobs... no innovation

People have selective memories. Yes, the city was still fairly clean after independence in 1966, but gradually, it came under neglect and bad management under the PNC. By the end of the 70s vendors and garbage were taking over GT. Buildings were neglected because of the middle class migration. The train was scrapped as were the public busses. Incompetence ruled the day.
Although burnham was an installed govt .He was the best pnc president cuz cheddi was a stupid leader to follow commonism ideology. Burnham never stop us leaving guyana.

Beautiful 💖💖💖😍😍

Why did so many Guyanese move to the United States and Canada?

Facts before PPP turned Georgetown into the Garbage City.
People have selective memories. Yes, the city was still fairly clean after independence in 1966, but gradually, it came under neglect and bad management under the PNC. By the end of the 70s vendors and garbage were taking over GT. Buildings were neglected because of the middle class migration. The train was scrapped as were the public busses. Incompetence ruled the day.
This is Georgetown only?
Yes
Nice video for d mayor.lol
Guyana is way more develop now thanks to PPP better road houses buildings movie theater mall with escalator
Yea , better roads to move all those drugs , becoming South America premier Narco State. Roger Khan and death squads ; real better under PPP , lol.
Guyana still looks like a run down 3rd world country.Its far from developed!
@@caribbaviator7058 What parts of Guyana do you go?
@@bysonchi Were you in the Drug trade?
@@essarroyrupchand4007 No Sir, I'm not related to Roger Khan, Jadego, or any other Indian drug lord in Guyana.
Although burnham was an installed govt .He was the best pnc president cuz cheddi was a stupid leader to follow commonism ideology. Burnham never stop us leaving guyana.
Stop people back then it was considered nasty , can't compared 83 and 23 😅
Wowwwwww this looks so good 😍😍😍.
