Guyana, a country highly dependent upon its external sector, has in recent years been adversely affected by a number of changes in external economic conditions. Although the 1974 sugar boom more than compensated for the increase in import prices, the successive fall in sugar prices coupled with the full impact of the 1973-74 petroleum price increase required the economy to adjust to these changing conditions. The necessary adjustment became particularly difficult because the temporary flood of sugar earn- ings led to a greatly expanded level of public sector investment and a result- ing high import bill, neither of which has it been possible to sustain. In addition, a sizeable expansion of Central Government current expenditures in 1976, coupled with the drop in sugar revenues, and continuing consumer subsidies led to a deterioration in gross public sector savings in 1976 to about 2% of GDP. This occurred at a time when the growing participation of the public sector in the economy and a shrinking private investment made a strong public sector savings performance important for financing investment at an adequate level. Investment reached the high level of 36% of GDP in 1976. One consequence of this overall situation was a current account balance-of- payments deficit of over 30% of GDP. In absolute terms, the deficit exceeded US$135 million and gross international reserves fell from US$100 million to US$27 million during the year. ii. In 1977 only a marginal improvement in the economy took place despite the introduction of restrictive neasures which improved the balance of payments position, and a 40% reduction in public sector capital expenditures.

  • Guyana Country Packet Updated January 2017
    Guyana Country Packet Updated January 2017 Maranatha in Guyana In 2017, the Seventh-day Adventist Church will commemorate 130 years of activity in Guyana. Their work over the years has resulted in 54,000 members and 214 congregations meeting each Sabbath. At one time, the Adventist Church operated several schools in Guyana, but in 1976, the government prohibited all private schools. The policy has now changed, but the Adventist Church has not yet re-started any schools in the country. Seeking to change this, church leadership has made a commitment to start a new school. Maranatha has committed to construct a new elementary school campus in the capital city of Georgetown. The current scope of Maranatha’s involvement will begin with the school campus and a few church buildings and will be fully defined as the project evolves. Maranatha will offer the first volunteer projects in the spring of 2016. Volunteer Opportunities In Guyana, Maranatha will focus on the construction of a One-Day School campus in Georgetown as well as One-Day Church frames located throughout the country. Volunteer projects typically combine construction with community outreach in the form of medical clinics and children’s programs. However, the details of each project vary, depending on the volunteers, availability of opportunities, and needs of the local church. Project Funding The local church is responsible for providing the land and labor to excavate the site. Maranatha has agreed to raise funds to help subsidize the building costs in Guyana. These funds are provided by donations from individuals, churches, school groups, and businesses as well as the donors of the $10 Church program.
