This very positive article today in Clarin states that Guyana could be one of the richest countries in the world in the next 10 years due to its extensive petroleum reserves recently discovered .
I like to ask the members here if anyone has been to this hidden country in the far north of South America and what were your impressions of life there ?

like most poor countries with natural riches like this, the key will be can they actually put it to good use to support the people? or will it be a money grab for the politicians? it's usually the latter...
