Is This the Norway of South America?

Guyana’s economy is the fastest growing in the world, driven by a booming oil sector. The South American nation’s reserves are so vast that Venezuela is escalating claims to its neighbor’s oil-rich Essequibo region. Guyana’s fossil fuel supply poses other challenges, too. While natural resource windfalls can create phenomenal wealth, they can lead to hyperinflation, social and political upheaval and severe income inequality.

    Honestly I think the "norway approach" might actually be the perfect solution. If the government can agree to put most of the money, say 80% into assets outside the country they can avoid a lot of inflationary pressures, maybe have a 1-2% max draw out of funds per year. The government made $1 billion in oil revenue, this needs to be kept out of the economy to avoid inflation as their imports were around $4 billion in 2022. Fortunately in 2022 their imports to exports ratio was about equal. Some of their largest exports are unrefined products, hence some of their money, maybe 10%, should end up building infrastructure and loans to help create value adding industries. The remaining 10% should probably be split between healthcare and education subsidies. If you want an example of how to fully pull a country of poverty look no further than South Korea. It has transformed itself into a high income country through a few key areas, a great education system, capitalizing on local businesses, and massive cash injections from the united states. Id say they already have the massive cash injections part down, now its time for them to work on the local business development and education sectors. It won't be quick, but with savy investment they can effectively offer a better economic and lifestyle for its citizens.

Now that housing prices are not that high in Guyana, this is the time to carry out Singaporean-style housing.

What distinguishes Norway, and they alone, is that they imposed a coherent policy on Big Oil and stuck to it. They were generally well educated and able to trust their politicians because of a robust political structure. Since Guyana has fewer than a million citizens they will have to hire out for the management of the entire resource. If they were to do so, they would each be multi-millionaires.

And then still pay great wages but also charge pretty high (40%) income tax to promote austerity and prudent saving.

    Guyana should follow the way that Norway managed their oil and gas exploitation.The Guyanans must realize that these oil and gas resources are owned by each and every citizen of their country not foreigners,not multinationals or trans national companies,not corrupt politicians,not greedy businessmen but by the state..Following Norway, It should put up a national oil and gas corporation to manage the exploratoon,development,roduction,sale and earnings.They should also put up their national wealth fun run by incorruptible NWF Council who will use partbof the earnings to sovereign wealth fund.Earnings should go back to every citizen as benefits and fpr nation building and development.

    Guyana has a high Indian origin population that form part of the the Indian indentured labour Carribean work force that settled alongside fellow African slaves. Venezuela's greed is well known along with corruption. Perhaps the Indian diaspora in Guyana can bridge across the fastest growing economy ( India @ 8%) to ensure solid social systems that benefit the PPL is focused on. The problem with oil dependent nations is - the shift away from oil & the push for green energy so there will be oil but it's Gona loose its use. By then these small oil dependent countries need a partner like India that has multiple sectors beyond oil as solutions to their problems.
