Guyana is chosen for more than one reason. One is it's a socialist country under President Forbes Burnham, who is a Marxist himself. So that looks really good.

There's a large Black population in Guyana, former slaves, and mixing with Indians who had been brought over as indentured servants. which is actually kind of the larger population number-wise. And there's also Native American people there, the Amer Indians. So that's the one big reason. And the other big reason is that they speak English.

Well, they have water. Water doesn't end up being a problem, but it's not right for growing just about anything. Like there's a cassava will grow there. They have all these huge plans to, yes, to be self-supporting, and that never, ever happens. And then a lot of their experiments fail. The weather is very intense in the equatorial jungle, and there's constant rains and flooding.

There are a skeleton staff at the temple, because their job is to keep shipping everything to Guyana to make it function. So that's a huge responsibility and very important.
