And bananas supposed to be the affordable stable price fruit. Longer journey now, damn! You don't sound pleased at all with the food options there man. I couldn't help but notice the Hummer parked up. Reminds me o f Jamaica, amongst all the poverty there is a BWM, Benz and Porsche parked up!

It doesn't make sense, and I've given up trying to make it so. One thing I haven't seen here are the banana gassing houses like I've seen in Jamaica, but production here isn't at the stage where that would ever be needed. This place is a total mystery.
Funny, in our little village of 8,000 people in Cambodia, there are multiple Bentleys, Ferraris, Range Rovers, and I've even seen a Bugatti once. In Cambodia the wealth is concentrated into the hands of a very small group of elite, but here it is in the hands of 80%, making little room for poor people to unite or rise up in numbers.
I think I prefer to live among 90% of people in the same boat as myself, it causes us to look out for one another. Suriname is definitely in the grip of selfish capitalism, just as all other western countries are. Everybody would rather climb the ladder than lift others up. !ENGAGE 30
