The capital should indeed be moved as early as possible. Brazil and other countries did it successfully.

The construction going on in Georgetown by the private sector shows that people have forgotten about the flood. However in terms of the garbage and smells, moving the capital will not affect the situation, the people have to change their habits of dumping wantonly and police need to enforce the litter laws. I was down there recently and did not experience any of these smells that you or your American friend claim. 

That's due to your bad BO. hahahahahahah.

Or maybe he went straight from the airport and was locked up in a house for the duration. In this case, it would make sense. How you expect him to smell anything. Hahahaha

I can tell you right off the bat that those canals smell real bad. You don't want the misfortune of falling into one, especially that one near the museum. However, in your case there will be an en exception. I would gladly dash you in mesself.

Would you agree, with proper drainage and irrigation this situation could be alleviated?

That is a major part of the solution. The People need to stop dumping and start respecting the environment recognising that by doing so they are helping to protect their own health and wellbeing. GT is facing major potential  public health issues due to poor sanitation.

 

The sea levels are rising and if significant investment is not also made to buttress the sea defences the coastland will be inundated sooner rather than later, and those sand bags that they are busy filling will not hold back the sea.

 

The so called building boom? Just look at the buildings going up, they are mostly suited to USA but being in a tropical country, all ACed and well insulated, blocking out the stench in the process.  In any event, I just do not understand why they build on the Coast. But then not all persons make prudent choices. Some don't even think logically, just take B_Gurd as an example.
