Share post:

ONE GOVERNMENT MINISTER is not unduly concerned about the brain drain affecting Barbados.

Instead, said Minister of Industry, Commerce, International Business and Small Business Development Donville Inniss, the focus should be placed on expanding opportunities for Barbadians in Barbados.

The St James South MP was speaking to the DAILY NATION yesterday as he hosted his eighth annual Easter family kiting day at Wanstead Ridge Park, St James.

“A Barbadian, wherever he or she is in the world, is an asset to Barbados,” he said, adding he did not think there was a need to panic about the situation. (TKS)
