The name Chan-A-Sue is commonplace at Mabaruma. Inquiries as to how to get a sense of what the community was all about led to 72-year-old Godfrey Chan-A-Sue. He was born at Mabaruma as were his parents Emanuel and Katherine.
In 1988, after spending more than a quarter of a century away from home working in the city, he returned to Mabaruma to assume control of the family business, Chan-A-Sue Trading, a groceries and hardware outlet situated at Chan-A-Sue junction in Mabaruma.
Chan-A-Sue junction sits on a portion of 200 acres of land which has been in the family since 1930.
