Secondly - I think the best way to get something to the ordinary man is to give some land and a house to each Guyanese compliments of the oil money, starting with the poorest (they live in zinc sheet shacks).
My 2 cents.

The best way to help the ordinary man is to ensure that a process of education and vocational training, aligned with the employment opportunities, is put in place. Capital available to fund various activities including micro enterprises will be part of this.

I also endorse the resurrection of village council where communities identify projects that they need assistance with in order to develop their communities.
