A Conversation with President Irfaan Ali of Guyana
Guyana, one of the fastest-growing economies in the world, has an abundance of energy resources that could help address severe global shortages. In 2015, it discovered off-shore oil reserves that have produced unprecedented tax and royalty revenue and powered double-digit GDP growth. In Guyana, that windfall promises dramatic improvements to infrastructure and the health and education systems in a country with fewer than 1 million inhabitants. Outside Guyana, the oil could help bring down energy prices that have fueled inflation and worsened poverty worldwide, and reduce dependence on Russia’s energy exports.
To take advantage of these opportunities, however, is an enormous governance challenge. Guyana has identified at least 11 billion barrels of oil off its coast, but its leaders recognize that the renewable energy transition will eventually sap demand for its abundant oil and gas. So it is sprinting to ramp up energy exports, while eager to avoid errors from other commodity booms throughout history, whether unfair deals with foreign investors, corruption, environmental degradation, missed development opportunities, or deepening divisions between ethnic communities.
How can Guyana best take advantage of its energy resources? What role should the U.S. government play in supporting Guyana’s broad economic development priorities and strengthening its democratic institutions? How can Guyana help address the global energy crisis? Please join the Wilson Center’s Latin American Program on Tuesday, July 26, 2022, from 1:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. (ET), to hear President Ali’s vision for Guyana’s future and global role.

Hon., Ali, PhD, PPPC, President Guyana. Your live participation correspondence with these Americans Institutions means a great lot to Guyana and its citizens. In addition, you have rendered yourself with a remarkable and an outstanding performance goodwill . If I may also give many thanks to our Ambassador for Guyana Ms. Lynch.
When Guyana builds an oil refinery it Must be GOVERNMENT OWNED AND NOT THE PRIVATE SECTOR

I've seen President Ali in his dealings with the local communities in Guyana and this Forum.He is brilliant and has a lot of forthsight.Seem to have good plan in place for Guyana.What an able leader.Very impressive.
I really do hope Guyana practices trickle down economics. Wait so the US don't see the importance of Venezuela and Cuba role in the region? The US foreign policies continue to destabilize many nations and even your country Mr. President. Be transparent.

God bless president irfan Ali 🙏
The president is a boss.
We hope that bilateral relations between Guyana and the United States serve the development of both nations. Especially for the development of infrastructure, public services and the creation of new sources of employment in mining and Amerindian communities such as: Eteringbang, Arau, Kaikan, Isseneru, Ekereku, Aurora Gold Mine, Arimu Mine, Puruni, Paruima, Kamarang, Phillipai, Imabaimadai and Issano for the socio-economic development of Region 7. 🤞
Public comment. Analysis to give guyana it wort for oil . Not bit and pens for oil . God is watching and waiting. No one can run away from destiny.
President Ali of Guyana doesn't know East Indian exists in Guyana.
Public comment. Stop 🛑 flaring and pollution now . Guyana must stand firm against corruption practices. Leaders must respect Guyana rules and regulations dealing with climate change and reflection of rights and stop 🛑 loops against oil companies must pay taxes like every one else. Nobody as I say .but do as i do. Government must not allow no country to dictate for guyana and Guyanese people. Government is educated and understand the principles of governance and proper management in government.
