The De Kinderen Regional Hospital in Region Three has delivered critical medical services to more than 8000 patients since its commissioning in August 2025, with officials reporting substantial patient turnout in every major department.
During an impromptu visit to the facility on Saturday, hospital staff told President Irfaan Ali that the hospital’s emergency department alone sees about 70 patients every 24 hours, reflecting the heavy reliance placed on the new institution by residents of the region.
Advanced services are also in high demand. The radiology department has already catered to over 500 patients and the hospital conducts approximately 10 CT scans every day—a significant improvement for residents who previously had to travel to the Georgetown Public Hospital or private centres for this service.

Critical care numbers remain equally strong, with more than 100 patients passing through the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) since the hospital opened.
Meanwhile, the maternity wing has welcomed over 100 new births.
At present, officials told President Ali there are five patients hospitalised, with three doctors on duty during the day and two at night, averaging around 25 patients per doctor.

During the visit, President Ali walked through the facility, engaging with staff and relatives of patients, assessing the facility overall service delivery.
The $6.6 billion De Kinderen Hospital was established as part of efforts to modernise Guyana’s healthcare system, specifically for the residents of Region Three.
The state-of-the-art facility offer both specialised and essential medical services, including Internal Medicine & Surgery, Gynaecology, Paediatrics, Cardiology, Mental Health & Psychiatry, and Surgery. Patients will also have access to the 24/7 Emergency Department, Inpatient and Outpatient care, advanced laboratory and imaging services, as well as dental and optical care.
Essequibo defeated Demerara by one wicket in a thrilling low-scoring encounter in the Guyana Cricket Board/Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sport Senior Women’s Inter-County 50-over competition on Saturday at the Lusignan Ground.
This game was originally completely washed out on Friday at LBI, and was replayed as part of the first round of matches.
Demerara batted first and posted 77 all out from 32 overs. Essequibo, in reply, were coasting to victory at 54-3 before a spectacular collapse saw then being reduced to 63-9.
It took a last wicket partnership of 15 between Shonette Belgrave (9*) and Yonette Welcome (4*) to seal the win for the Essequibians.
Essequibo opener Tremaine Marks, named Player-of-the-Match, made a match-high 26 off 27 balls (4x4s), Extras were 14, while the experienced Kumarie Persaud made a crucial 13 off 41 balls, her dismissal sparking the collapse.
Off-spinner Letisha Jordan was outstanding with the ball for Demerara, taking 4-25, while skipper and left-arm spinner Kaysia Schultz claimed 2-25.
When Demerara batted, the Barkoye sisters- Naomi and Cianna- made 12 and 11 respectively, while Jordan scored 11, as Extras were a healthy 26.
For Essequibo, Cyanna Retemiah (3-11) and Belgrave (2-12) stood out with the ball.

In a landmark move for youth cricket in the Caribbean, Head of the Guyana Cricket Board (GCB) Bissoondyal Singh, and Head of the Barbados Cricket Association (BCA) Calvin Hope have signed a historic agreement to facilitate an Under-13 cricket tour to Guyana.
The tournament is scheduled to take place from December 12-20 and will feature a five-match series, providing young players from both countries with early exposure to competitive cricket and the opportunity to develop their skills in a structured, cross-territory environment.
“The exchange programme between Guyana and Barbados is more than just a series of matches,” Singh said.
“It represents a shared vision of nurturing talent, fostering camaraderie, and creating opportunities for our young cricketers to thrive. By engaging players at the Under-13 level, we are laying the groundwork for a sustainable and competitive future for cricket in the Caribbean.”
Commenting on the agreement Hope said, “This exchange programme offers massive benefits for our young cricketers. It provides them with invaluable experience, exposure to different playing conditions, and an opportunity to build friendships and networks beyond our borders. Initiatives like this are critical for developing the next generation of talent and ensuring the long-term growth of cricket in the Caribbean.”
The GCB emphasised that this initiative is part of a comprehensive, long-term strategy aimed at strengthening grassroots cricket across Guyana and the Caribbean.
By providing structured opportunities for young players to compete in international age-group competitions, the programme seeks to identify and nurture emerging talent from an early age, equip them with the skills, discipline, and competitive experience needed to excel, and create clear development pathways that lead from grassroots cricket to national and regional representation.
Furthermore, the initiative reflects the GCB’s commitment to enhancing collaboration between cricket boards across the Caribbean, fostering knowledge-sharing, best practices in coaching and administration, and a united approach to developing cricket at every level, thereby securing a strong and sustainable future for the sport regionally.
It must be noted that the GCB, in the recent past, had successfully conducted an Under-13 exchange programme with Trinidad and Tobago, further demonstrating its commitment to providing young players with exposure to competitive cricket across the region.
Looking ahead, the GCB is excited to welcome the Barbados team, as together we ignite the dreams and talents of our young cricketers, shaping the next generation of West Indies cricket superstars and setting a new benchmark for youth development in the Caribbean.
Oscar Piastri cut McLaren team-mate Lando Norris’ championship lead by two points with victory in the sprint race at the Qatar Grand Prix.
The Australian led an uneventful race from start to finish as Norris trailed home behind Mercedes’ George Russell, the top three finishing in the order in which they started.
Red Bull’s Max Verstappen moved up from sixth on the grid to finish fourth, losing one point to Norris in the championship.
Norris now leads Piastri by 22 points and Verstappen by 25 heading into Sunday’s grand prix.
If Norris wins the grand prix, he will be champion. If either Piastri or Verstappen does, then the battle will go to the final race in Abu Dhabi next weekend.
Verstappen made up two places at the start as he followed team-mate Yuki Tsunoda past the Aston Martin of Fernando Alonso, who had excelled in putting his uncompetitive car fourth on the grid, and the Japanese then let the Dutchman past.
Verstappen challenged Norris for the first few laps, even feigning an overtaking attempt on the Briton at one point, but eventually began to drop back complaining of bouncing and jumping from his car.
After the first three corners, the only overtaking move in the points positions was when Mercedes’ Kimi Antonelli took advantage of Alonso running wide out of the final corner at the end of lap 12 to pass down the inside of Turn One at the start of the following lap.
Both Tsunoda and Antonelli were given five-second penalties for exceeding track limits too many times, leaving both in the same fifth and sixth positions.
Alonso took two valuable points for Aston Martin in seventh while Williams’ Carlos Sainz earned the final point in eighth.
Ferrari had a dire race. Charles Leclerc dropped from ninth on the grid to finish 13th, after two off-track moments, while Lewis Hamilton finished 17th after starting from the pit lane. (BBC)
Cricket Australia officials will meet with Usman Khawaja this week and ask the opener to explain himself over criticism of the Perth pitch, as they weigh up whether to sanction him for labelling it a “piece of s***”.
Khawaja raised eyebrows on Friday when he hit out at the surface for the first Test, just a day after the ICC handed it the highest possible rating of “very good”.
Speaking at a fundraising lunch for the Usman Khawaja Foundation, he criticised the wicket’s variable bounce during Australia’s eight-wicket win.
He also pointed to the fact 19 wickets were lost on day one this year against England, and 17 last year in the series opener between Australia and India.
CA officials are believed to be disappointed by the remarks, and will speak with Khawaja in camp ahead of the second Ashes Test at the Gabba.
The Perth Test was the shortest in Australia in 93 years, and the second shortest of all time in the country, with just 847 balls bowled in the entire match.
“Nineteen wickets on the first day and about 20 people got hit. That’s a great wicket, that seems real fair,” Khawaja said at the luncheon. “The same thing happened last year in the India Test. It’s just that day-one wicket, the ball just does not react.
“Steve Smith’s by far the best cricketer I’ve ever played with and he’s missing the middle of his bat by a long way. He does not miss the middle of his bat, (yet) he’s getting hit in the elbow.
“So day-one wicket at Perth is a piece of s***, I’m happy to say that. Has been last year, it was this year.”
CA this week praised the wicket, with chief of cricket James Allsopp saying the ICC’s rating had justified head office’s view the pitch provided “a fair balance between bat and ball”.
The rating also shone a light on England’s poor batting, which was labelled “brainless” by the likes of former England opener Geoffrey Boycott after they faced just 68.3 overs across two innings.
But Khawaja was adamant the Perth pitch was still not good enough, with his main issue being variable bounce.
“You can’t really predict up and down. Up and down is the hardest. Sideways is little bit easier,” he said. But up and down, your hands can’t catch up. They do get better. Day two, day three and then day four, they start to crack up and cure again.
“Whenever we play at Perth, it’s one of the few places we win the toss, bat first, hoping that we can bat again maybe at the end of day two and into day three.”
Back spasms meant he was unable to open for Australia in either innings in Perth, allowing for Travis Head to score a match-winning century in the fourth-innings chase.
Khawaja is confident he will be fit to play in Brisbane, with his back having improved, while also insisting he had paid no attention to calls for him to be dropped from the side and Head moved up to open the batting. (ESPNcricinfo)
A new $30 million water system was commissioned in the remote community of Silver Hill on Friday, marking the end of strenuous walks to the creek for approximately 90 per cent of its residents.
The upgrade introduces potable water access directly to homes, fulfilling what many describe as a long-awaited “dream come true.”
The scope of the works included three major components: the drilling of a new water well, the installation of a sustainable photovoltaic pumping system, and the laying of approximately 3km of distribution network.
The successful implementation means the vast majority of Silver Hill residents now have water access close to their homes, eliminating the tiring daily chore of accessing water from the creek.
Raffina Lund, a lifelong resident of Silver Hill, expressed profound gratitude during the commissioning ceremony.

“I was born and grew up at Silver Hill. And I’ve been a resident for actually my entire life,” she said. “Growing up and living without water close to the home, it was a struggle. With this well, I just want to say thank you. Thank you so much. This is like actually a dream come true.”
Similar sentiments were echoed by Raymond Baldwin, who expressed not only relief at the intervention but also pride in his crucial role in bringing it to fruition.
Baldwin was one of the residents actively involved in laying the distribution network, taking great pride in shaping a new future for his community.
“For years we have been using creek water for everything. Since the beginning of this project, I have helped with the laying of pipes and it has been very beneficial for me and the community, because now everybody is getting potable water, and it even helps in the little kitchen gardens we have in the yard,” he shared.
He also commended the government’s grassroots approach to leadership which sees essential services and direct contact with residents in previously overlooked communities.

“I think it is a good step that the government has taken for small communities along the highway. We look forward to taking care of this well as the years go by,” Baldwin affirmed.
Minister of Public Utilities and Aviation, Deodat Indar, who commissioned the system, noted that the water being produced from the well is low in iron content, which means it is safe for consumption.
He said that the government, through the Guyana Water Incorporated (GWI) has drilled about 131 similar wells in remote and hinterland communities over the last five years, underscoring a commitment to expanding potable water access across the country.
“We have to modernise, we have to move away from [relying on water from creeks and rivers]. So through [GWI] we are divulging those resources to ensure that we have universal access to water that is clean, and usable for cooking,”
While 90 per cent of households gained direct home access, the remaining 10 per cent of Silver Hill can access potable water via the standpipes located at strategic points of the community. (Republished from DPI)
Tropical Shipping, the US-based transportation and logistics company, has reaffirmed its commitment to community development in Guyana with a generous donation to the Rotary Club of Georgetown Central (RCGC).
The contribution is earmarked to support youth and educational projects across the country, furthering the company’s long-standing community relations programme.
The donation was formally handed over at Tropical Shipping’s Georgetown office by Country Manager Glenis Hodge, who stressed the importance of sustainable investment in the region.
“Tropical Shipping views community engagement as an essential part of our mission,” Hodge said. “Our community relations program provides continued support for the countries and islands where we serve, contributing to sustainability, growth, and development.”
Hodge further noted the company’s focus on nurturing future talent: “Our donation today demonstrates that our commitment to youth development in a rapidly growing Guyana. We hope this contribution helps more young people benefit from educational and developmental activities, opening doors of opportunities and supporting Guyana’s continued progress.”
The RCGC confirmed that funding would be crucial to maintaining its ongoing initiatives focused on education and literacy within Guyanese communities.
Lloyd David, president of the Rotary Club, expressed his appreciation, noting the three-year duration of the funding relationship.
“The Rotary Club of Georgetown Central is extremely grateful to Tropical Shipping for the funding provided over the last three years,” David stated.
“These funds have enabled the Club to deliver on its annual projects, particularly those related to education and literacy in Guyana.”
Tropical Shipping has operated in Guyana for over 30 years and globally for more than six decades.
Camp-Perrin est sans doute l’un des coins les plus dynamiques du Sud d’Haïti en matière d’éducation fondamentale. Commune de plus de 40 000 habitants. Son réseau d’écoles écoles primaires, secondaires, centres d’alphabétisation, constitue un socle éducatif solide. Mais ce constat encourageant s’arrête abruptement là : pour tout ce qui est études supérieures, la commune reste dépourvue d’infrastructures. Aucun institut universitaire, aucune faculté locale, aucune option de haut niveau accessible sur place. Résultat : une génération entière de jeunes brillants se retrouve contrainte de quitter la zone pour espérer étudier, quand les moyens le permettent, ou d’abandonner, faute d’offre adaptée.
Cette réalité, c’est celle que m’a décrite l’éducateur et citoyen engagé Rolin Saint-Vil lors d’une rencontre récente. Pour lui, l’absence d’une institution supérieure à Camp-Perrin creuse une brèche grave dans le parcours éducatif local. Chaque année, des jeunes obtiennent leur 9ᵉ année fondamentale, passent le secondaire, réussissent ; le taux de réussite du district scolaire de Camp-Perrin à l’examen de 9ᵉ année a été de 77 % selon les données officielles. Voilà un vivier humain réel, capable, désireux d’apprendre, de construire. Et pourtant, sans université, ce vivier se vide, les cerveaux s’en vont, l’espoir se disperse.
Pourquoi Camp-Perrin a droit à son université ?
1. Il y a déjà la base humaine et scolaire.
Quand une commune affiche des taux d’admission élevés à l’école fondamentale, cela signifie que les enfants réussissent à acquérir un socle solide. Pour une région comme la nôtre, ce n’est pas anodin. Cela montre la discipline, le sérieux des familles, la valeur accordée à l’école. Transformer ce socle en pipeline vers l’enseignement supérieur est juste logique, c’est construire sur ce qui existe déjà.
2. Retenir le capital humain, briser l’exode intellectuel.
Chaque année où un jeune quitte Camp-Perrin pour aller étudier ailleurs, c’est un peu de la commune qu’on emmène. Les rêves, les talents, l’énergie, la vitalité. Le départ des jeunes crée ce qu’on pourrait appeler un « exode étudiant », mais c’est surtout un exode de potentiel, d’avenir. Une université locale, ou même une antenne d’enseignement supérieur, permettrait de retenir ces talents, de les transformer en ressources pour le développement local, d’éviter la fuite des cerveaux.
3. Justice territoriale et équité éducative.
Il ne peut pas exister en Haïti des centres urbains favorisés avec des universités, et des communes rurales comme Camp-Perrin, si bien scolarisées, exclues du parcours supérieur simplement parce qu’elles sont en périphérie. L’accès à l’enseignement supérieur ne doit pas être un privilège géographique. Offrir une structure à Camp-Perrin, c’est rendre effectif le droit à l’éducation pour ses jeunes.
4. Impact socio-économique local.
Une université locale ne formerait pas uniquement des diplômés — elle stimulerait l’économie locale : logements pour étudiants, commerces de proximité, services, emplois d’enseignants, d’administratifs, d’entretien. Elle faciliterait aussi des formations adaptées aux réalités de la région : agriculture, agro-écologie, agro-business, gestion rurale, artisanat, développement communautaire. Cela pourrait contribuer à freiner l’exode rural, à revitaliser le tissu social et à offrir des perspectives de développement durable.
5. Risque pour l’avenir national : renoncer à la cohésion éducative.
À l’échelle nationale, l’enseignement supérieur en Haïti souffre déjà de nombreuses faiblesses : un enseignement concentré dans les grandes villes, un déficit d’encadrement, des disparités d’accès, une fuite des cerveaux massive. En refusant de développer l’enseignement supérieur dans les communes comme Camp-Perrin, c’est une partie du pays qu’on exclut du progrès. C’est sacrifier l’équité, la diversité des territoires, l’avenir collectif.
Le plaidoyer de Rolin Saint-Vil : ce qu’il a vu, ce qu’il demande.
Rolin Saint-Vil ne parle pas uniquement en théorie : il décrit le réel. Il raconte des familles qui encouragent leurs enfants à étudier, mais voient les espoirs s’éteindre quand vient l’heure des études supérieures. Il parle d’élèves prometteurs blessés par la distance, par les coûts, par l’absence d’infrastructure. Il évoque une jeunesse victime d’une injustice invisible : ce qu’elle a construit jusque-là ; réussite, discipline, assiduité ; ne suffit pas pour rester chez elle.
Pour lui, l’établissement d’une université ou d’une antenne d’enseignement supérieur à Camp-Perrin est une question de dignité. Ce n’est pas un luxe, c’est un besoin urgent. Il stipule que ce projet ne devrait pas se limiter à une faculté prestigieuse : il peut s’agir d’une structure adaptée, modeste, mais fonctionnelle — avec des filières professionnelles, techniques, agricoles, ou sociales. L’objectif : donner des outils concrets aux jeunes pour qu’ils restent, construisent, développent leur territoire.
Ce qu’il reste à faire — et ce que chaque acteur peut faire
• L’État central (MENFP, Rectorat de l’UEH, autorités éducatives) doit inscrire Camp-Perrin dans le plan national de développement de l’enseignement supérieur, envisager la création d’une antenne ou d’un institut public.
• Collectivités territoriales, élus locaux, communauté de la diaspora, société civile : identifier les ressources, mobiliser les financements, appuyer la construction d’infrastructures, encourager les partenariats.
• Population locale, parents, jeunes : maintenir l’engagement scolaire, soutenir le projet, faire pression citoyenne pour que l’idée ne reste pas lettre morte.
• Partenaires internationaux, ONG, bailleurs : investir dans l’éducation rurale, soutenir la formation, appuyer les jeunes, contribuer à l’égalité territoriale.
Conclusion : un appel, un espoir
Camp-Perrin est une terre d’élèves. Elle a prouvé qu’elle savait apprendre, réussir, former. Mais elle manque d’un pilier fondamental : l’enseignement supérieur. La commune mérite qu’on lui donne cette chance. Qu’une génération puisse étudier, rêver, bâtir, sans quitter sa terre d’origine. Qu’elle puisse transformer ses succès scolaires en potentialités réelles pour elle-même, pour sa communauté, pour Haïti.
Ce plaidoyer n’est pas seulement une demande, c’est un engagement moral et citoyen : il invite chacun à regarder la réalité en face, à sensibiliser, à agir. Pour que Camp-Perrin ne soit plus jamais orpheline d’université. Pour que ses élèves restent chez eux, formés, debout, et prêts à participer à l’essor d’un pays qui a tant besoin de ses propres enfants.
