# Geschil Suriname-Guinee

Border dispute between Suriname and British Guiana over Surinamese plans to build a dam in the Corantijn River. Although old contracts state that the entire Corantijn river, including the eastern bank, is Surinamese, British Guiana considers the Coeruni-river to be its border river. People from the Bureau of Hydropower works in the Corantijn River to investigate the location for a dam, including measuring the flow velocity. At the mouth of the Corantijn River, British Guyanese fishing companies on the east bank are actually on Surinamese territory. With further images of a Dakota of Surinam Airways that takes off from Zanderij Airport and lands on a makeshift airfield on an island in the Coeroeni River to do research on the bauxite layers present there.
