(CARICOM Secretariat, Turkeyen, Greater Georgetown, Guyana) Ambassador Irwin LaRocque, Secretary-General of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) has underscored the need for Member States to work together to find and implement solutions to the challenges that faced the Community.
Basing his comments on the current state of the global environment and its effects on the Region, the Secretary-General said that while the times are difficult, they also presented an opportunity for the Region to band together to overcome them.
“It is not by chance that this year we can celebrate 40 years of integration, something that we must be proud of. It is through hard work, commitment and a determination to do what is best for the people of our Caribbean Community that we have kept the fires of integration burning.
“The work of this Council over the next two days must stoke those flames," Ambassador LaRocque said.
