Description
A freshly planted Guyanese flag flaps on the summit of a table-top mountain rising from thick forests in a remote region near the Venezuelan border. Inhabitants of the tiny village of Arau reject a claim from Caracas that their land belongs to Venezuela, which has sparked fears of a potential conflict. "This is Guyana," says Jacklyn Peters, a 39-year-old nurse and resident of Arau, where about 280 people live in wooden houses at the foot of the Tepuy Pakaramba mountain. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
