Guyana's sustainable economic advancement depends on several factors: Leadership with vision, commitment and will; and Leadership with balls for radical redesigning, restructuring and development of political, legal and indigenous-market super highways. To achieve such goals, attention and resources must focus on:
- Creating a hybrid political/parliamentary system
- Utilize elements of Westminster, Federalist, Canadian, and Indian systems, among others
- Establishing 6 geographic/political states/provinces that bear functional/governance similarities to US, Canada & India
- Increasing population through selective immigration
- Promoting/sustaining economies of scale and economic growth require at least 2,000,000 people
- Establishing a selective immigration system based on pre-determined market and economic development needs/priorities (not human, economic and environmental rapists or restaurant & night club owners)
- Enacting laws that empower civilians to bring limited actions against the government and civilians in matters of public interests
- Social justice necessitates laws and supporting legal sociopolitical structures that empower people, individually and collectively, to act in matters of national interest (such as, curbing abuse of political/functional powers; ending environmental and natural resources rapes)
- Establishing off-shore banking
- Billions of dollars that could benefit the national economy in numerous ways remain underground and may disrupt normal financial and economic activities
- Constructing, incrementally, supportive road networks that strategically link main highways
- This will speed-up inland expansion, and population increase based on selective immigration & development priorities
- Building two other international airports (Berbice and Essequibo)
- These will lead to upward spiraling tourism and related economic activities
- Will also boost services and light industry activities
- Lead to population increase (new migrants and returning nationals)
- Reducing dependence on fossil fuels
- Encourage/promote wind power, solar and hydro-power (economically and environmentally beneficial to everyone)
- Evaluating the contents and relevance of educational programs
- Review and/or incorporate the teaching of tolerance as an integral subject (Kinder - High School)
- Evaluate the course contents/programs to determine practicality/relevance to Guyana's immediate and long-term economic/urban development goals/plans (Teacher education, Trade Institutes and University)
