Global Journalist: Guyana threatened by 'oil curse'
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 июл 2024
- One of the poorest nations in the Western hemisphere is about to be transformed. That's because tiny Guyana is the site of one of the largest offshore oil discoveries in decades.
But as the South American nation readies for a gusher of oil cash, there are concerns the relatively peaceful and democratic nation could be changed for the worse.
Joining the program:
*Samuel Sukhnandan, senior journalist for the Guyana Times and Television Guyana.
*Raul Gallegos, associate director for consulting firm Control Risks.
*Anthony Bryan, professor at the Institute of International Relations at the University of the West Indies.
*Nick Butler, former BP plc oil executive and visiting professor at King's College London.
GUYANA WILL OVERCOME THAT CURSE WE ARE a peaceful opeople and we talked to our. CREATOR? Everyday..heis merciful. All praises are. Due to him
🇬🇾 I'm 🇬🇾 a 🇬🇾 Guyanese 🇬🇾 living in Guyana I am not feeling the impact of the oil in Guyana many days I cannot put food on my table things are really Hard in Guyana
WHO TOLD AMERICA WE ARE THE POOREST NATION?WE DON'T LIVE ON us 1dollar a day.
This is the way those people do things.Make look poor so then the take your thing's be unfair and look like saver . But Guyanase not fools so come be fair and will be well.
Who give these dam people rights to talk so much negative of my country.Other than oil we have the maiden forest the lung of the world.So many other natural resources.JEalousy kills😀😁
In This Clips while Raul Galleegos talks about Poverty... It's incorrect to Use People sitting on the seawalls to associate as a pictorial guide to back his Statement... Samuel should well inform GJ that Guyanese people has been celebrating on various occasions sitting on the seawalls over a number of years... Guyanese Folks don't have poverty compared to other parts of the world... If he (RG) wants to make his point about countries not being ready for new found resources... should get his facts together before making such blunt statements Journalist are like watch Dogs (In Some cases Angels) and should be mindful of credibility of their information sources... you don't want to be responsible for putting your name on a story that may cause harm ... that for the goodness that it should served... what is the real purpose of this Clip...

So many natural resources yet so few brains to make much use of them.
Jason, wel done, very understanding and well spoken, intelligent
Guyana is not a poor country......it's a blessed country ...
Anna Odell pls i need Guyana country people anybody you have candect pls call me i am interested exporting any items i am from india tamilnadu state any one person pls

Yep but it's all Indigenous people L A N D
It is indeed annoying that Mr. Samuel Sukunand a senior journalist keeps saying AHM during the interview. But, overall it is great interview taking away AHM..
Good Report.
Pray for wisdom. Build foundations👍👍🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
We will be surely robbed. We poor man have to pass far.
Why does the Guyana journalist use the word am after every short sentence? This is for the BP executive, it was my suggestion to Obama on how to cap and clean up BP spill in the Gulf in 2010, I was never paid to take both Obama and BP to court, waste of time they stole my intellectual property.
14:33 why he talking like there isnt institutions in place to teach us. why yall shaming guyana like this?...WE ARE NOT A POOR COUNTRY!!!!
Right. 🙄 As I said earlier, there were poorer countries, that are still now the richest in the world. The government has employed many experts. This video is giving the impression that if you aren't rich or if you're poor, then you must be dumb.
@@personofinterest6813 GREAT POINT.
Meanwhile
Look at africa they are rich but look at who ia reaping the hog of the wealth not the people it is the investors that is so bad.
@@virginiacharles5366
And corrupt African governments.
Wow
That oil is a curse to Guyana and its people fucked up thins will happen to this place wish to not be here when it happened.
Interesting video
Guyana is all Indigenous people L A N D
Curse or Blessing ? That is the ? Nearly everywhere a curse ?
Guyana should look out for advice but avoid international funding if possible. The priority skills development is key for Guyanese nationals but then drive for the talented Guyanese diasporians ti return is really important because other internationals will take over if given the opportunity
Indigenous people L A N D
American are saying guyana is a poor country. But i am wondering why people want to invest there.
The Arab Gulf countries are all doing and they were poorer, so why do you think that Guyana will face trouble? As far as I can tell, the government has been planning to circumvent any issues, and is doing a good job at it. They have already done their research on possible mishaps from other countries, and have employed experts.
You have to send this reporter to plant yam

Norway has a taxation of the oil companies that is close to 78 % of the profit !!!!! This tax system has been developed over a period from 1970 - 2019. The tax system is well functioning and the oil companies loves to search for and extract oil in our country. I can only ask and recommend the leadership of Guyana to actively use the Norwegian experiences to its full extent. The norwegians will be happy to share information and, if needed contribute to negotiations. Then Guyana can expect zero corruption factor.

Guyana both country and people are no different from any other humans on the planet, Guyanese crawl, Guyanese walk and Guyanese run.....I am in full support of this country becoming the 51 state of America and that is going to be a game changer needed for my guyanesse people.....
That is just got going to happen.
Unfortunately I am unable to overlook the fact that this whole interview,or reasoning call it what you may, it's absolutely foundation on functional illiteracy,no contributor have demonstrated even any gram of common sense, simply put just blowing poison gas/breath.
Global journalist at least you got one thing wrong about Venezuela so far you did not speak the truth why Venezuela economy collapse United States is the culprit for that carry on
Where did this gentleman got that figure from about 50/50% ?
No. It's the Venezuelan government. They killed off whatever diverse industry it had in favor of oil.
@@shauncameron8390
You know how I can tell you're full of it .hot air and Boombastic check right before you get Chavez took office you would understand the illiteracy and the lack of diversity under that's Administration that was a puppet of the West after Chavez took office Venezuela seeing more investment and diversity and its people its culture and their life because you know how I know my country share a border with Venezuela
Government thinking about self alone n not the welfare of the country..we are suffering badly..lack of job opportunities
I leave my country Guyana in 1993 n Guyana was nothing like what I am seeming in these video's,n when visit last December n is a shame how the p p p gorvement bringthe country to nothing.Ok they say Burnham did alto of bad things but the country was nothing like it is now,it is pity the Britches can't take it over again n put all those thief n jackass in jail. But God is alive n is gust time. I could as a child Burnham use to warn pole about these happening n the fools use to laguht right there in boarderpastuer, ask any body now where boarpasture is they don't know,gust like how they don't know how the statue inparliament building is n what it stand for.I. have my grand childrenin G T n I am going to let them about some of Guyana history that I grow in.Sad so Sad

The incompetent and kleptocratic Guyanese government has already bungled this. The Moray House Trust has analyzed the contract they signed with the oil companies and it's one-sided in favor of the oil companies. Here is a link to their rebuke: ruclips.net/video/5OaJzvQjr2U/видео.html
People always suffering in Guyana not now.and you know it
The first thing for Exxon is not to be greedy and make sure the people of Guyana gets a reasonable royalty for their oil and their government spend a large amount of this oil revenue on education roads bridges a new seewall and be very carefull of theft from both foreign and local companies they have to be also carefull to manage their government from the financial hit men.
WITH RESPECT, FOREIGN COMPANIES HAVE THEIR AGENDAS TO FULFILLED PERIOD, THAT IS THE REASON BURNHAM STOPPED TRADED WITH U.S & ENGLAND & STARTED TO TRADES WITH RUSSIA, GUYANA WERE GETTING 25 CENT A TON TO EXPORTS SUGAR TO THE U.S & ENGLISH ETC THAT'S WHY BURNHAM GOVERNMENTS DEAL WITH RUSSIA, HE EVEN SENT JAGDEO TO RUSSIA FOR STUDIES, WHEN ANYONE IS RUNNING A COUNTRY WERE DIFFERENTS RACES OF PEOPLES HAVE TO PLEASED ALL OF THEM, THAT'S WHY I AM NOT A POLITICIANS,,, I WISHES GUYANA WELL ON THEY NEW FOUND FORTUNES,
The list of oil curse is long. Wisdom is needed to avoid this.Beware of environmental disasters
These people are Guyanese! Not Guyanan🤣🙄. Ugh!!!
Go to hell just to talk about the dispute .
Exactly. 🙄 The Arab Gulf countries were poorer than Guyana, and people doubted them too, and they are all doing just fine. The government has already been planning for all of this. Poverty doesn't always equal stupidity.
Raul Gallegos. Doesn't want to comment on what the share percentage should be because he knows exxon screwed Guyana.

My comment is on the yam too much to eat it's free in Guyana
Why would you all show the first map of Guyana thats claimed by Venezuela. Show the correct map and there are better images of Guyana that you showed.
This guy needs to know Amm means mango in hindi so embarrassing
AM Is The New Word For AND! 😎

You posted the wrong map on the video ! You posted a map of Colombia.

Guyana is always a rich country you don't know what you are saying
The people in the country has no benefit from it's richness
The area that lies in the southeast part of Guyana and the Republic of Suriname between Coeroeniriver and Upper Corantijn River is from the Republic of Suriname and not from Guyana. Guyana calls the Upper Corantijn River New River and that is wrong. New River is Upper Corantijn River and the area between Upper Corantijn River / new river and Coeroeni rivir belongs to the Republic of Suriname. Remember that.
S.T F U!
Take it then
That matter is settle at the UN so stop claiming nonsense.
Guyana should sell their oil on there terms and not anyone terms, Guyana can used this resource to build a better country for its people, Guyanese people are nice people especially the the Essequibo people, I will like to see someone in power who think and speaks from there heart where honesty and love for the Guyanese people comes first. Take the money and build homes, school , business, hospitals, and better the country in general. Bare in mind we all have to died we don’t take anything with us . And the best things we can give to the future of Guyana is what we preserved and build for tomorrow generations. I am from Guyana 🇬🇾 and I will like to see the people of Guyana come first. Also Guyana should not allow outsider government to step into Guyana to any business, or else we will end up like Syria, outside government become ur friend and then ur enemy and wipe out the history of Guyana and the Guyanese people .. with this in mind know that these outsider is only looking out for their benefits not the Guyanese people benefits . Plz Guyanese people put ur thinking cap on and stand firm
We do not want to see the country fall into a trap and hostage environment from outsider. Do ur work ur self and sell ur products with u being in control.
I'm Guyanese, living overseas since I was small. . To the person who mentioned Guyanese people are nice and should NOT let outsiders come in. I agreed with your points, Our people and Government needs to Think for themselves and stop outsiders and protect THE PEOPLE AND OUR LAND. We should export goods and oil and DEVELOPE OUR COUNTRY SO PEOPLE DON'T HAVE TO HAVE TO LIVE OVERSEAS.

@@cococa9 Should not let outsiders in?wtf? most Guyanese people are ignorant like yourself.
The Guyana Times newspaper is an antigovernment opposition owned news outfit. Not a credible source of information on this issue because of bias.
How much yam did he eat
Guyana times is not a good source. They have a political alliance with the PPP government
Hi!
Give Samuel credit for wanting to be heard but Sammy ... do the right thing You are Gt 1st Journalist and then whatever you want to follow... you are young and have the voice and personality... to be better... So Please represent US in the right way...
U don't know what the hell u r talking about,Guyana is the ditches .!!! Figure it out.
Anup pnc ppp the all of bunch of thief sorry for the younger generation and poor ppl of guyana
Its not a dispute, that was settled in 1899. Venezuela is making a claim to our lovely Essequibo. That will be disposed of in the ICJ. Guyana times is not a good source for discussion. They have a bias. It would be better to use a source that is not bias.
Well which of the media are true in GUYANA. IF YOU CAN NAME ONE THAT IS THE VOICE OF THE PEOPLE NOT THE PRESENT GOVERNMENT AMERICAN CONTROLLED

Jadgeo drug business unlawfully drug in Guyana
This have nothing to do with jagdeo
Gallegos is very disrespectful. He categorizes Guyana's Oil wealth as a "Homeless Person winning the lottery". What about the people who become suddenly rich with drug money in Columbia where he is? These people are ridiculous. Even the Guyanese Panelist is making assinine statements that encourage this type of disrespect. He does not even correct the moderator that the correct term is Guyanese not Guyanan. Just shows you how much they know.
This guy looks stale bruised
What do you mean by saying stale bruise please English you think you know so much what do you mean by saying stalel bruise
What is stale bruise
I'm really trying to listen and follow and i know he's nervous but I can't continue because of all the "um" it makes it so hard to follow...holy Toledo
@kristelle bahadur; Honey, he's in Guyana not Toledo! :)
But yes, I agree, the 'um' 'um' business needs to go, to maybe, Toledo. :)
We are suffering very bad , the government will happy them self with it ,and we keep hungry.
A homeless person winning the lottory he's disrespectfull and out of place
It will be great Guyana if it's managed transparently. The way it's being managed right now it will end up like Venezuela, Trinidad, Nigeria..destroyed the Agriculture Industry n depends on oil.
Trinidad and Tobago isn't an example it's people do benefits of it's natural gas reserves which has a stable governance and economy nothing like those countries you mentioned
Or Equatorial Guinea and Angola.
Amm amm amm amm say
Richard Rick ram you're so cool trying to make him look small by mocking him you must be so proud of yourself
@@trimacreno6733 u must b more proud to reply to me
Anthony Bryant you are not here in Guyana how could you say that Guyanese don't have faith in the former opposition party PPP to run the oil & gas sector? Guyanese don't trust the grainja regime and you know it but won't admit that. I want to remind you that the PPP was the governing party for 23 years and grainja had audits done in the government offices held under the PPP and no money was missing, misappropriated or irregularities were found as against what is happening now under the illegal grainja regime rampant corruption, lies, deceit and above all the total disregard of the Guyana Constitution and court rulings so get your facts right before you speak rubbish

Wow it's amazing how everybody here only knows how to criticize but put one of you guys on the reporters bench and I'll bet not one of you criticizing these reporters could even answer one question losers losers
Guyana also has a boarder dispute with Suriname at the east south boarder. Not the Coroniriver is de border in the south between these two countries, but the Upper Corantineriver that the Guyanese people call New river is the boarder between these two countries. The whole part of land between Upper Corantineriver and Coroniriver is Suriname soil, it belongs to Suriname and not Guyana. Keep that in mind.
Ulrich Lachman Geeze, when u wna nag abt something learn how to spell.. it's the "corentyne" the corentyne river and the dispute is the new river triangle that is partially Guyanese own
It’s Suriname not Guyana.
