dd25251: @chukxie. Thank you and you're welcome. I've learnt a long time ago that there are good and bad people everywhere so I'll never put down any nation. I've had mixed experience with Nigerians so I know that they too are human and trust me of all the nations I've met, there's something about Nigerians that I really love. They are bold and not afraid to be who they are. How can I come to gunayansh??  |

@dd25251 is it true dat guyana is d poorest country in south america |
| Re: Guyana - Telling It As It Is by frank94(m): 2:28pm On Aug 05, 2014 |
its one of the poorest in south america and the carribbean island.guyanese are all over the islands searching for good life.never you try and go their unless you will end up their for life without going back home,be warned south america is not worth traveling to,better you go to europe or dubia or quatar with work permit if you insist you want to travel out.but for me stay back home and start business. |
| Re: Guyana - Telling It As It Is by dd25251(f): 7:53pm On Aug 05, 2014 |
@holyghostfire and frank94, yes, Guyana is one of the poorest country in South America but like everywhere else there are the rich and poor everywhere. In my first message, I said no one should come to Guyana if they are looking for milk and honey. If you have milk and honey already then it's best to stay where you are. I also mentioned under what conditions one can make it in Guyana. Our greatest asset are our people. We are some of the most hospitable in the world. |
| Re: Guyana - Telling It As It Is by Joel3(m): 9:51pm On Aug 05, 2014 |
most people still don't know that Nigeria is richer than the whole of South America, South Africa and some part in Europe and Asia. Corruption is our problem. We have everything including the population... 1 Like |

@OP Thanks for this little info. I open Nairaland to create a topic about how i can travel to Suriname and i saw your post. I have learnt so much from it. We have no Suriname embassy in Nigeria. How do i apply for the visa? I have a Suriname girlfriend that can send me invitation too. How do i go about it? Please any information from you is welcome. Thanks, God bless you. |
| Re: Guyana - Telling It As It Is by dd25251(f): 10:42pm On Aug 07, 2014 |
@DaaSlim, I would love to help you but I don't have any information on Suriname. It's another country with it's own rules. @Joel3, yes Nigeria is very rich indeed and Guyana too small for much commercial activity. Guyana is poor but when I compared our passport to a Nigeria passport, I realise that we have more access to the world visa-free and less hassle. Also, Guyanese are more hospitable to Nigerians than many other countries. Nigerians can connect with Guyanese culture very easily because of many similarities. Guyana is not the place for a foreign hussle. If you want to go to University at a relative cheap cost, it's the place and the qualifications are recognised globally in many countries. If you want to have a decent life with Guyanese woman or Guyanese man as a married couple, it's great. If you have money, it's great because the people are simply lovely. Guyana is just a simple place for uncomplicated people. @Joel3, I plan to visit your beautiful country some time soon. I must visit Nigeria before I die. 1 Like |

@Daaslim....why not ask your Surinamese gf about Suriname? About flights I think the easiest route would be thru the Netherlands where you can find several flights to Suriname. |
| Re: Guyana - Telling It As It Is by frank94(m): 4:32pm On Aug 08, 2014 |
For the one that want info about suriname,make sure your girl friend is at the airport waiting for you the day your flight will touch down at suriname airport,because the immigration their wont laugh with you with that your green passport at the point of entry.Even with your invitation they can still deport you at the point of entry unless your girl is their to speak on your behalf .make sure you have your paid hotel booking not reservation  For your flight hmmmm no be small thingoo  with ethiopian airline no transit visa,it will take you 2 to 3 days to suriname in the caribbean,and will cost you 430k to 480k,because you will change flight in brazil that will take you to the carribean islands and their is possibilities that you will sleep over in piarco international airport trinidad or at Hato international airport in curacao or at Reina int airport Aruba.ET only stop in brazil then you connect with copa airline.With emmirate it will cost you 500k to 600k depends on the flight agent you meet.Then emmirate stops at brazil also and you connect with copa air line the same with SA airline.For transit in uk,holland and germany to suriname in the carribbean,you need transit visa and the flight ticket is around 350 to 380k depends on the time of your travel and agent you meet.But i will still advice you,stay back in nigeria carribbean women are not ones you can rely on,im here and i know how things work.if its europe i will advice you to go,atleast if anything home is near.A lot of nigerians are stranded in the carribbean and latin american countries no money to feed talk of flight ticket home 100 of nigerians are in the immigration camp in trinidad and tobago no money for ticket back home,even the ones that spend 2 to 3 hours on water just to cross over from latin america to the carribean and thinking things will be alright,but when they get to the carribean they meet the worst.immigration and border officails in good carribean countries does not laugh with nigerians and africans.Soon i will move back to nigeria and open a forum about traveling.Nigerians should be enlightened about traveling not all that glitters is gold.be warned 7 Likes |

@frank94. I couldn't agree with you more that all that glitters is not gold. I feel sorry for many Africans that leave their home countries in such of a better future only to find themselves in a bad situation. The Caribbean is very small so unless you have good money or a good wife/husband from those parts, things will be tough. Africans tend to stand out everywhere so that makes it even easier for them to be located. Looking for a better future may also mean a bit of open-mindedness all concern. The Caribbean is great but some adjustments may be necessary if no money is available. |

dd25251: I'm Guyanese born, groomed and breed. One of the most straight-forward write-up I ever read. Thanks for enlightening us, OP. A question I'd like to ask is whether you have distance learning universities or colleges in Guyana where Guyanese and foreigners can take classes or complete program online? |

@JustCare. I wish that I could have helped you but I have no expertise in date-matching. Sorry. @amnestylaw1, thanks for your comment. Guyana is yet to catch up with globalisation in terms of education. We're still into chalk and talk. Sorry that I couldn't be of help in that area. 2 Likes |

@Frank94...and traveler to Suriname....first off....Suriname, like Guyana is in South America. If you can connect to KLM or Surinameairline your trip would be shorter and cheaper. If connecting with Copa be your choice....then explore connecting with Copa closest to Panama....fly to Guyana and overland to Suriname. There is a border crossing...not as strict as the airports...but like Frank said....they never be smiling. On education.....the University of the West Indies (UWI) has campuses in various Caribbean countries but not Guyana. UWI degrees carry weight internationally. There are also offshore US universities in the Caribbean. My advice in general...is ehmmmm......listento Frank94....with both ears and your mouth open. The OP is ehmmm....also frank!....telling it like it is...as far as I know! |

@Originalsly and frank94, you're both correct. Frank, I meant that I agree with you. We use the expression "I couldn't agree with you more" to mean "I agree with you". We also use the expression (slang) "This food nice bad" to mean "The food is very nice. It chop good ooh". By the way, the Vice Chancellor of the University of Guyana is Nigerian so there must be some positive ooh. I also have a few Nigerian friends who migrated to Guyana, married Guyanese of course, studied in Guyana but then migrated to greener pastures. Students from other Caribbean countries also study in Guyana. It's a good transit point not necessarily for long-term fortune. Of course, as a Guyanese, I do love my home country ooh but like Nigerians, would say that you have to have real money to live well deh ooh. Money, aside, Guyanese are some of the most loving and caring people on earth. Money can't buy that. I've seen people achieve money but they are heartless and rootless and lack love for humanity. Guyanese know how to eat rice, salt and pepper and laugh to glory. The poorest Guyanese will still find something to offer you to eat or drink if you visit their homes. For me, life is not all about money. If you're looking for love, a new start, affordable education, then Guyana is the place to go. Guyana is also safer to live than some countries. If you're in search of money only, no way ooh. However, where there's great love and care, people can conquer the unconquerable. Guyana is similar to Nigeria and Ghana but with less drama. It's even closer in culture to Nigeria and that is why I guess I like Nigerians, Ghanaian and Kenyans so much. I love them so much that I wanted to help them to come to study here but I realised that most people are after money while my focus is life, a new start. I have a different motive. Yes, there are many con agents everywhere. Someone in Africa even wanted to collect money on behalf of me to get people to Guyana but I refused. I'm not into that. I even decided to not even offer anyone that opportunity again. I'll just help friends that I know so that we have a mutual understanding that I'm only helping them to get an education in a safer and more caring environment from which they can move on to somewhere else later. 4 Likes |
