Pointing out that Guyana has already begun to increase its level of military cooperation with India, including working more closely on a wide range of activities, the president is quoted saying “We have already embarked on closer and more elaborate military-to-military cooperation with India. We have several officers being trained in India now.” Said cooperation, Ali said, also includes developing an integrated relationship in terms of technology, equipment, and human resources.

Ranks of the GDF are currently benefitting from or have completed courses in the South Asian nation, through the country’s Technical and Economic Cooperation (ITEC) training programme for friendly foreign countries.
