Guyana’s Ambassador to Venezuela Dr Odeen Ishmael and a five-member team from the embassy last weekend in the Venezuelan industrial city of Ciudad Guayana assisted more than 200 Guyanese in renewing their passports and another 200 in applying for new and first-time passports.
Over the two-day consular outreach exercise, the team met with hundreds of Guyanese nationals residing in Ciudad Guayana, located at the junction of the Orinoco and the Caroni Rivers, 600 miles south-east of Caracas, the Guyana Embassy in Caracas said in a press release.
Most of the Guyanese who migrated to Venezuela reside in various parts of this sprawling industrial city.
