Have any of you seen this "journalist" interview someone. He uses that condescending tone many a time. Gesticulating during a conversation is not disrespectful. It helps to emphasize what the speaker is saying and shows the level of seriousness of their words. We all do it, some more prominently than others. You need to be impartial but based on the name of this channel, many may not be when it comes to this country and the realities it is facing.
Those who speak to carbon emissions must first take the moat out of their own eyes before seeking to remove the beam from others’! The old polluters America, Britain’s North Sea exploration and the Middle East are producing without talk of carbon emissions by the way has Norway stopped? Bye the bye Britain must be peeved that British Guiana now independent Guyana was a British colony still.
The usual response from ignoramuses. So because they jumped off the cliff, Guyana must jump too. Makes no sense. Know better in the 21ST century, so DO BETTER. Be That better example to the world.
This man and some of the upper class people he interviewed stink of post colonial entitlement. Some valid points but he has a nauseous better than thou approach. The UK and it's allies went above and beyond to divide and leave a young independent Guyana disadvantaged.
BBC is always providing fake news. Not many people watch BBC in the UK. Especially. because you have to purchase a license to watch BBC. I hope the Guyanese people understand this.
THE DEVELOPMENT OF GUYANA IS IN ITS EMBRYONIC PHASE. EVERY THING TAKES TIME.WHAT THE LEADERS OF GUYANA HAVE TO BE PRUDENT AND DISCIPLINE IN MANAGING THE COUNTRY RESOURCES.
A well respected journalist who doesn't shy away from asking tough questions, glad to see these types of programs. Guyana is going places but needs to be aware of the environment as well as the risks from internal and external forces is the take away message.
Really, why not ask Britain some hard questions? How did they accumulate their wealth? How much fossil fuel does Britain use annually? Where does it come from? Do they have any plans to atone for the crimes they've perpetrated on the 3rd world?
But he does more than ask questions. He badgers, he berates, he interrupts. Worst of all, he doesn't listen. Notice he's constantly looking at his notes for the next gotcha.
The West needs us and we need them. Guyana needs to say to the West how will you compensate us if we continue to maintain a pristine environment and reduce the carbon emissions that oil exploration will bring - keeping in mind our country's goals and aspirations to not remain a third world country?
The president of exxon watching the reporter in his eyes and lying frankingly yes every orther country in the world they get 10%royalty but give guyana 2% that robbery at its highest level or and i for got without a gun and a mask as well 😂
lawd I WISH I WAS SITTING ON THE SEA WALL LIKE THE LADY AND THE HOST, NYC FREEZING.HELLO MY COLONIAL HOST TELL SUNAK TO CLEAN UP THE THE THAMES RIVER LEAVE GUYANA ALONE. YOU SOUND LIKE YOU VEX THE BRITISH LEFT GUYANA.
The interview with President is edited. This is the tail end of a longer interview where the President kept calm for quite some time before checking this reporter. Creative editing BBC but low transparency. Do better.
IMister Ali if you love your country look after all of its people and don’t leave anyone behind. Don’t allow this beautiful country to become rich and poor stigma
LFSB NEVER promoted racism. It’s the ppp who are always stirring racial tensions and promoting division. Stop spreading propaganda and study your history from credible sources.
Can't help but 😂 at the condescending UK BBC colonialist, independence was granted before oil was discovered, too bad for the colonialist, missed out on such huge plunder! Now let them follow their own unique path, good luck Guyana.
If Guyana had plenty of massive cobalt mines, this would be a whole different story,Everybody would be there digging massive holes and polluting the environment.
There should be 0% poverty in Guyana, I would scrutinies & question that 40% figure. Small population, resources rich land & waters, no one should go hungry in Guyana, only the idle that don't apply themselves. I speak from years of knowledge...
Many people who talking nonsense about the government should be ashamed to talk about the government of Guyana they forgot how the Guyanese used to run all over the world in the time Burnham used to rule Guyana just imagine he band food many people who are working they are happy people the wicked one who is wishing and pray on other they are talking nonsense they are the people who is balling oil money talking bad about the government shame less and dotty
Venezuela is covitious and with it it's experiment with communism and unrealistic dictator the whole country are in shambles and where there is no visions the people perish

EAT!!!!!!! EATT!!!!!!!!!! EATTT!!!!¡!!¡!!!!!! No savings,investments,or nuttin from the people who brought Guyana under the level of Haiti.
This journalist is hypocritical. He asks Guyana about oil exploration in the context of Paris COP Conventions when there are so many oil producing countries that have polluted for decades if not centuries. Furthermore, in a previous episode featuring Trinidad and Tobago's Energy Minister he asked that person what would T&T do with extra access to natural gas markets? So he is not a good journalist, as that line of questioning is biased an reserved for for er colonies from the Developing world. Furthermore, Dutch Disease did not happen to all oil-producing nations. Whilst T&T didn't manage its economy perfectly, oil revenue was used for genuine development for decades. So I am confused about the subliminal narrative that Guyana will fail! Guyana's time has come to generate much deserved wealth and re-distribution for its people. Why didn't BBC focus on questions on wealth management, and the nature of FDI?
Stop telling lies....Some people are ever lazy to go out to work...They want handouts and freeness. They SHOUD go and find many jobs are there for them. The Government wanted and pleading for labourers but yet some chose to go doing drugs, thieving, and robbery....
@@markshaw8386 you definitely living foreign and are fooled by the people who are paid to promote propaganda on social media,I dare you to visit guyana and get your own opinion.
Mr. Hard Talk stop belittling Guyana because you sound so vexed that Guyana is no longer under colonial rule and they have oil now which you can't get your hands on as you had in the olden days. Guyana was left in a poverty stricken state and can now find its way and you are talking of poverty with Northon Guyana has now become the centre of your greed Go look into your country and let the people there tell you how hard life is and how they are suffering.
What is wrong with this President? Is that the way to speak with people? Pointing your finger in someone's face? Sheesh. Uncivilized and unintelligent.

So true
What are the bigger countries doing? Ask them how are they contributing to the eco system and climate cha ges.

PNC signed the contract and took the 20 million dollar bribe!
amd in case of an oil spill exxon will be legally exempt , meaning guyana will peak the tab for the clean up which can take years and cost billions.

Norton told the man about high cost of living...lol his shirt button look like it will fly in that dude eye..
You already make your money 💰 back times over, time for ten percent 💯 and a sovereign fund for oil 🛢 spill insurance ❤
Do you think the people and equipment used in the extraction of oil and gas is free? Are you stupid?

Guyana people are nice people. Country will improve. In Guyana, there are 45 percent to 50 percent east indian.
90 % r hindus rest Muslims and Christians 😂
yes! exactly, its not totally east indian?
Carbon sink without adequate compensation.
Its is a divided community because of racism in the two major parties. This is since the Burnam's days.
And who started this racism? The British and now the Americans!

.... Whatever ....but believe me...some journalist do there research... think about that.
@@DonnaLee-s3swell duuuuuuui old swingeeeeee cuscasian look like didn't do a proper research
In case of any oil spill damage could result. So should Guyana give up on oil 🛢??
The people suffering in this country despite it got one of the highest GDP

We want 10 percent same deal like other countries, wait til come there
Granger approved the contract! APNU signed it and took the 20 Million dollar bribe. Talk to the APNU criminals!!!
