Kwakwani is home to more than four thousand people, and like many other communities across Guyana, it has its fair share of successes and challenges.
It sits on the Berbice River, one of the three rivers which cross Region 10, and can be accessed both by road and water. However nowadays, most persons venturing in and out of Kwakwani do so by road through Linden. Whenever the fair weather roads are in reasonable condition, it would take a maximum of two-and-a-half hours by minibus at a cost of two thousand dollars per person with a surcharge for extra luggage. The other route would be from New Amsterdam via the Berbice River, but this is now mainly used by the bauxite operations at Aroaima.
“We love this community and would do anything possible to see it grow from strength to strength,” said Jostlyn Morian,
