This couple usually gets a rough time going through Mexico, the cops want bribe. Last year my bro went through a red light just as it turned, he was pulled over. The cop told him it'll be $200, my bro told him he didn't have that type of cash, the cop said that he'd follow him to the bank, hehehehe. They eventually made a deal, my bro passed him $40 and he was happy with that.

Guyana has completed a feasibility study for the Linden to Lethem Road paving project that would link the country with Brazil, the government announced Friday.

Guyana will share the findings with Brazil as discussions for the project advance, Foreign Minister Carolyn Rodrigues-Birkett said.

“We would like to see this project accelerate quickly, but we also have to be very patient,” she said.

Work has started on the road, but there is still much work to be done, according to Rodrigues-Birkett.

i will do that foryou i am going next two weeks.but i know that there is big bus like those coach bus that come from brazil to GT

Hi Warrior,
Pls ask the folks at Lethem if there is regular bus service from Bon Fim to Manaus.
The hotels I have found in Lethem are Savannah Inn and Takutu Guest House. Perhaps the hotel staff may know how to get to Manaus.
Thanks
