I looked up Suriname in the CIA World Fact Book, and it looks like a major banana republic. Military junta every couple of years. My bet is that once they are there, there would be no way to get them back.

It was until 1975. Dutch is the official language & Dutch aid to Suriname is mentioned here:

Took a break, but I see there have been a couple of responses to your question. Have to do...chores....arghhh. Think I'll check out Greta's blog today...I've seen others reference it but haven't read anything directly there. Wonder if she has commented on Beth HT's statement this morning?
