		Guyana, as is documented, is one of the poorest countries in the Western Hemisphere and needs a substantially greater infusion of external assistance to support national efforts at economic development.
		It is notable that the Government of Guyana is cognizant of the fact that aid flows of whatever magnitude cannot substitute for sound macro-economic management and that efforts are being made to cope with the changes in the global international economy together with the market-oriented requirements and structural adjustment.
		Foreign aid from the United States is therefore perceived as significant primarily because it could serve to lay the foundation for long-term self-reliant development.

		GUYANA IS OSTENSIBLY a parliamentary-style democracy with a constitution, a National Assembly, a multiparty system, elections, a president chosen by the majority party, a minority leader, and a judicial system based on common law.
		Although Burnham paid lip service to an ambitious political and economic experiment, cooperative socialism, which was to develop Guyana to the benefit of all Guyanese, his paramount concern seemed to be the preservation and enhancement of his own political power.
		Whether these moves represented a strengthening of democracy in Guyana or merely a tactical move motivated by economic hardship remained to be determined.

	Another hit- from Guyana: Land of Six Peoples
		Guyana, of course, is not interested in scapegoats but in a dignified and mutually satisfactory resolution to the immediate problem as it relates to the off-shore concession granted in 1998 to the Canadian company, CGX Energy.
		There have been suggestions in various quarters that Guyana may consider formally bringing to the attention of both the Organisation of American States (OAS) and the United Nations the CGX off-shore oil drilling dispute with Suriname as well as the implications of the relevant provision of Venezuela's new constitution for Guyana's territorial sovereignty.
		While such considerations are being pursued, the Guyana Government seems to have no alternative but to utilise very scarce financial resources to beef up the country's security forces and continue its efforts to attract foreign and local investments for economic development in all areas of the country.

		While ostensibly purporting to be an analysis of" the nature and dynamics of foreign policy making in TandT" the publication in fact, constitutes nothing more than a monotonous, episodic chronological diplomatic history of disconnected events culled from the evolutionary processes of the conduct of our foreign relations between 1962 and 2000.
		To claim to embark upon a serious seminal analysis of the FRTT without focussing on the role, function, structure and human endowment of the designated foreign policy implementing Ministry (the vectors), of which one of the authors was a Minister from 1988 to 1991 is to leave a huge gap in the analysis.

		The escalating problems of race relations in our society will be acknowledged and some evidence of real efforts be implemented to deal with these.
