Compounding the challenges: stalled infrastructure projects, corruption allegations, and a presidential land controversy that raises red flags. With ambitious diversification plans and a tech push, Guyana’s leadership faces a steep climb — the real test lies in execution, not vision, as weak bureaucracy and a skills shortage loom large.
