Guyanese Diaspora has an important role to play

Jun 02, 2021 Letters

DEAR EDITOR,

The co-naming of a street in Queens, New York, as ‘Little Guyana’ is a fitting recognition of the enormous contribution made by the Guyanese Diaspora to the growth and development of their new homeland.
I am impressed, during my visits to the United States, how well adjusted Guyanese are to their new environment. Because of their hard work, creativity, determination and ability to apply themselves even under challenging circumstances, they are generally doing well. Many have distinguished themselves in the fields of business, trade, commerce and at the professional level.
It is significant that the co-naming ceremony took place on the 55th anniversary of Guyana’s Independence and a recent Diaspora Conference organised by the Guyana Government.
What I found particularly heartening is the fact that they continue to have a deep and passionate interest in the country of their birth. Their love for Guyana remains strong and enduring.
Guyana is on the cusp of transformational changes and the Guyanese Diaspora has an important role to play in that regard.

Yours faithfully
Hydar Ally
