Grenada’s efforts to promote Regional integration, particularly in the area of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), have been lauded by CARICOM Secretary-General, Ambassador Irwin LaRocque.

The Secretary-General expressed his appreciation in a message to Prime Minister Dr. Keith Mitchell on the occasion of Grenada’s 42nd Independence anniversary observed on 7 February.

Your dedicated efforts, Prime Minister, continue to ensure, in particular, that the value of ICTs to the advancement of the Community remains at the forefront,” Ambassador LaRocque said.

In his message, the Secretary-General pointed to the “great strides” that the people of Grenada had made since nationhood and noted that the country had moved securely on a path to sustainable development.

I am confident that Grenada will remain on a path to progress which will enhance the life of its citizens and those of the wider Caribbean Community,” the Secretary-General said.
