Ergenic Stats Yes the Netherlands does spend more on education and the children in the Netherlands do have more advanced stuff: good books, good chairs and tables, more advanced technology etc Buuuuutttttt that does not mean that the level of education in Suriname is bad it’s just that in Suriname there aren’t as much and as advanced tools as there are in the Netherlands and other 1st world countries.
I am an older Dutch woman and still know of the time Suriname was a colony. We did terrible things from the 17th age until today to so many tribes all over the world. We can only repend and not turn back time, but I hope some day we can live in peace together.
I am from Antigua and Barbuda in the Caribbean. I have been to Suriname back when I was a rotoractor. Suriname is a beautiful country with friendly people.

beautiful video, good narrating and nice professional filming. The native Indian Girl is wise.. i like her comment that there is only one God and she doesnt need to be baptized over and over to be loved by God. Smart girl with great common sense.
Indigenous or native american people are named indians too because when Christopher Columbus met them for the first time, he thought he had arrived in India.
Suriname has been fascinating me since I started doing research in early 2003. Such a unique combination of peoples converging: Native Amazonians, Africans, Javanese, Hindustanis and Europeans all converging to make Paramaribo and Suriname so incredibly unique. I still haven’t had the chance to go - on my bucket list 😊
Also Chinese and Jews and many people are a mix of all that. Suriname is a place that shows many cultures can live next to eachother in peace. But let us not forget Suriname has huge economic problems now post colonialism and their is a transgenerational trauma due to slavery.
This was a great insight! Pretty sad about the mercury levels and lack of resources. They have such strong visions, inspirational. Peace and positive vibes to all of their endeavors!

This documentary touched me greatly. I give general classes for elementary and secondary school. I wish someday I went to one these places and spent a season, giving crash courses on the general disciplines.

They look so much like Venezuelans, the features are so recognisable... I am kind of sad Venezuelans don't have so much interaction with the rest of the Guyanas, it is really important to say this because without the language barrier we definitely are very similar. Even the pronunciation is exactly the same prosody you can find in central to east Venezuela, amazing stuff.
They definitely will benefit by importing Venezuelan horses, they can change the way of living in the country side. Hardy and wet tolerant they can survive in that weather.
There should be an Interstate that stretches from Belem to Caracas. In America the Interstate system created work when it was built and it paid for itself in commerce and development many many man times over. I wish there were visionaries in South America who brought the countries together.
With that money all the guys need money,diesel, gas for the burner,mercury,parts for the crusher and engine and you have to pay the people who bring you diesel and you have to get the gold to the city and they will never give you the best price because they have to make money too.
Suriname people get told their golf is worth less cause of the quality but it's bs... And btw all the places in third world countries get robbed from their gold by us white people we don't pay them anything but ask 30k a kilogram ourselves that should awnser it

I worked near Pierre kondre in the years and it was better than I can see on the very nice made docu. And last year i was Surinam on vacation . I cried every day everywhere iwent. After 30 years I could not regonized the place I lived the under the people chose as President is felling the country and the people most of them are not using the fertile soil to grow vegetable . It is a pity . Wen I lived there I never went to the marked I had 8 sorts of vegetables growing and a lot of fruits we went only for fish meet milk and bread to the shops . But now nearly no one in the city is using thre living space near the house to plant vegetable . Some streets , but when it rains all of them are like rivers the water is not flowing. thanks to the president a murder who is killing the country and keeping most of the people poor .
Als het mag, stel ik een vraag aan de vader van de Indiaanse meisjes. Heeft u al een beroep gedaan op Baptistenkerk in Paramaribo? Er is meestal een pot voor mensen in nood. En zouden daar geen gelovigen zijn die deze meisjes onderdak kunnen bieden? Christenen helpen graag.
In my country, i would rather live in the village. In the city there is too many laws, too many boundaries, too many restrictions. For example, in a modernized western country you need fishing license to fish. You need permit to build your own home. You need to pay tax. So many things. In my country, if you want to fish all you need to get is you fishing equipment. No restrictions from the state. Pure freedom.
So, this guy, and others, is polluting everyone's water and food supply, can't even take care of himself and is planning to knock up his girlfriend? What , so he can then abandon the both of them? No, don't have kids. Let the task of having children be left to people who can afford it please. I know it is a tough pill to swallow, , but it is a sign of respect to the unborn human to not bring it in such a bad situation.

Ik ben zeer trots op Pierre. Ik bid en geloof dat zijn droom zal uitkomen in Jezus naam
I worked near Pierre kondre in the years and it was better than I can see on the very nice made docu.
And last year i was Surinam on vacation . I cried every day everywhere iwent. After 30 years I could not regonized the place I lived the under the people chose as President is felling the country and the people most of them are not using the fertile soil to grow vegetable . It is a pity . Wen I lived there I never went to the marked I had 8 sorts of vegetables growing and a lot of fruits we went only for fish meet milk and bread to the shops .
But now nearly no one in the city is using thre living space near the house to plant vegetable .
Some streets , but when it rains all of them are like rivers the water is not flowing. thanks to the president a murder who is killing the country and keeping most of the people poor .
@6:00 preach sis. Ain't no need.
Are they speaking dutch?
I love Su😘😘😘
Van welk jaar is deze vid trouwens?
This makes Surinam seem so private, live there ( in the city) and I can tell u I live the same way as any American ( not including starkucks)
*Starbucks
Americans look meaner than the people here
NICE
Suriname❤
Als het mag, stel ik een vraag aan de vader van de Indiaanse meisjes. Heeft u al een beroep gedaan op Baptistenkerk in Paramaribo? Er is meestal een pot voor mensen in nood. En zouden daar geen gelovigen zijn die deze meisjes onderdak kunnen bieden? Christenen helpen graag.
peace to all
In my country, i would rather live in the village. In the city there is too many laws, too many boundaries, too many restrictions. For example, in a modernized western country you need fishing license to fish. You need permit to build your own home. You need to pay tax. So many things. In my country, if you want to fish all you need to get is you fishing equipment. No restrictions from the state. Pure freedom.
Its a beautiful land
Eddy De Hart thank you❤
So, this guy, and others, is polluting everyone's water and food supply, can't even take care of himself and is planning to knock up his girlfriend? What , so he can then abandon the both of them? No, don't have kids. Let the task of having children be left to people who can afford it please. I know it is a tough pill to swallow, , but it is a sign of respect to the unborn human to not bring it in such a bad situation.
Just my same thoughts.
Very well said! Thank you!
Preach that to baby's having baby's in North America
