Applications are made directly to the program not the Guyana Government. There is a selection panel in The US specifically for this program. They receive applications from several countries and they choose the winners. We went over this last year but I guess some people "head a bit hard" and they don't learn too fast.
The GOG is not to blame, true enough, however why is it that Guyanese Blacks get these awards ahead of IndoGs due to entitlement, but come back only to perform poorly in the business arena? You see them ending up selling fry fish and plantain, while the IndoGs who were denied the opportunity far outshine their Afro counterparts.
