The recent tabling of the Guyana Development Bank Bill in the National Assembly marks an important and potentially transformative moment in Guyana’s economic development.
As Guyana marks its Independence and Eid-ul-Adha, remember that Prophet Abraham is described as a nation because he embodied the moral qualities from which nations are made. If we want a Guyana that is prosperous and strong, united and patriotic, respected and resilient, then we too must become a people willing to give up what weakens us to build what ultimately uplifts us.
I hope that when the ICJ judgment comes, it will grant Guyanese of every generation the quiet, everyday freedom to say “Essequibo is ah we own” without fear or qualification.
For a small, newly oil‑rich country like Guyana, our ‘sound fundamentals’ rest on global markets and shipping lanes that are suddenly less predictable.
Guyana’s real test is not about a cash grant, but about how wisely we use this moment to our advantage. And given the ridiculous antics of the Opposition, I can’t imagine why anyone could question or doubt the prudence of this president and his ministers.
