Drugb posted:.Now you change your tune. The question was why Guyanese with aspirations in academia have to migrate overseas to pursue their academic goals, this is because the Guyanese economy can not support their academic goals due to the very nature of the economy depending on agriculture, mining and timber. Now you singing about machine operator making more money than college grads, which has nothing to do with the discussion at hand,
Changed my tune with what. The moron that you are have a very narrow view as to what being educated is. In fact having talented technicians with post secondary training is more that Guyana needs then yet another PhD.
Trinidadians will eat Guyanese for lunch as we lack a pool of talent that can be quickly trainable. Exxon will hire them and fill their "local quota". Given that Guyanese have been swarming into these islands, especially since 2000 there is not a thing that Guyana can do to stop a Trini invasion into the oil industry.
So yes this is an example of how a natural resource based economy does need highly skilled personnel, which Guyana lacks.
Have you heard any demand for Antiguans to staff the Marriott Hotel?
