A few years ago, Guyana came onto the international scene as one of the fastest-growing economies in the developing world due to its oil and petroleum discovery. As a result, the country is making investments in infrastructure, healthcare, and education. A few months ago also, the President of Brazil visited Guyana and expressed hope that the government would effectively balance investments in these sectors with improvements in the quality of life for its citizens. This statement came at a time when teachers had been and continue to be on a countrywide strike demanding higher salaries.
