This is a bogus article...designed only to fool people like Dave, KP and Skeldon-Man. 

 

@Vish . There is no production factories in Guyana, except a few rice mill. The only hope for Guyana economy is the promise oil.

government officials went into Buxton and Express hope of sharing $5000. US per year to poor homes from the oil profit - people of all races already banking on this $5G. figure out the madness to come if Government can’t deliver. 

 Most Guyanese don’t want to work. And  the average Guyanese don’t think practically. 

Example. 

Two  weeks ago, an employee of ours asked for a tap up ( was not pay day- he’s out of money). Did not teturn to work until last Wednesday.

Excuse - boss man, had a Embassy Appointment for interview Monday

bossman - What happened Tuesday. 

employee - bass I had some drinks Monday after the embassy to bless the embassy visit and it spill over Tuesday 

employee - when I draw down me last pay month end , me nah come back.

boss man - why? 

Employee - sister put on fo abe.. abe a go foreign, this place too hard. 

boss man - when you flying out.

employee - don’t know yet, Embassy will send visa but abe got to sell out them things we have and visit families, you know how it goes , we gon hold a lil party for we neighbors and thing. 

Bassman - good luck, ayo rass think money grows on tree at Uncle Sam 

employee - come on bass, abe a get barrel every two month and you see how shine them look me sisee and Pinckney a look , me niece gat she own car and me a ride bicycle hay. 

With all that negativity and contempt you hold, why hurt your head and try to do business there?  Just get rich in Canada. 

True, there is that element of workforce however, it’s in the menial labor force.  Not sure what you do to be dependent on them so bad. 

I have lots of relatives who operate business there and the one big challenge is migration to CARICOM.  Skilled people leave due to safety and general quality of life.  

The guys running the IT operations cannot hold good people for over a year, they get jobs and leave the country.  They however, do find it difficult to get people to do menial work.  If you pay well though, they do find.  

Maybe you pay slave rates so you scraping the bottom of the barrel?

Bhai, we’ve been asked the same questions many times - why not close the doors. 

It’s a family operation (5). Some have hopes of a boom after 2020. Personal, I don’t see that happening.  Non of the kids wants to be part, so eventually, that decision to fold operation will come. 

Personally, I have diversified into rice operation, tilipia and cattle rearing supplying milk to most businesses in GT. 

Workers salary - some of our workers have been around over 26 years and have seen them opening small shops and their family growing. We took  a group of our workers for visa ( two years ago ) and 70% receive. 

We never hire couples or immediate family, except at the farm where we have houses and their entire family is living. 

Nothing is full filling to the heart when you help someone and see their lives evolve. We came into this world empty handed and so we shall return. Material gains can vanish from us in a twinkle of an eye.
