Interesting, what are the opportunities to make money from Guyana, it is understood that they have lots of oil and they have the fastest growing GDP of any country.

Any ideas?




For some reason the current leader of Guyana (who has a muslim name) hangs out a lot with India's Modi (who is an open islamophobe). A strange set of bedfellows.

Theory is that 1) Guyana needs to wage war with Venezuela over oil-rich disputed territory [1], and 2) Guyana wants to build a lot of infrastructure. Might be opportunities there.

Someone should tell the Emiratis and Saudis. They keep hanging out with him and signing deals.

Ali studied in India so that probably played a significant role.

More critically, India's ONGC and Reliance have signifant stakes in Venezuela's ONG industry, and act as a mediator between Guyana and Venezuela.

Guyana is also trying to become a major ONG exporter now, and the biggest greenfield market for that is now India.


How did Ghana get pulled into this?


Oops, typos. Corrected. Thanks.


Real estate.

I know people in Guyana doing real estate who may have opportunities. Email in my profile if you are interested.
