Stuart calls for SIDS collaboration

A CALL HAS BEEN MADE by Prime Minister Freundel Stuart for collectivity among Small Island Developing States (SIDS).
This, he said, was the best way for small countries to have their voices heard in the international arena.
However, Stuart acknowledged that to date, cooperation and collaboration across the SIDS regions had left much to be desired.
Those were two of the main points Stuart made to as he delivered the feature address at yesterday’s Global Celebration Ceremony to commemorate World Environment Day in Independence Square this morning.
Among those attending were Dr Ralph Gonsalves, Prime Minister of St Vincent and the Grenadines; Irwin LaRocque, CARICOM secretary-general and several ministers of government. (RB)
