Let me first of all take this opportunity on behalf of the Heads of Government and other delegates of CARICOM to express our sincere appreciation to His Excellency Felipe Calderon for the warm, Caribbean welcome that we have received here in Cancun.

REBUILDING HAITI: A PRIORITY FOR THE CARIBBEAN - AN ADDRESS BY THE MOST HON. P.J. PATTERSON, ON, OCC, PC, QC, TO THE JAMAICA STOCK EXCHANGE INVESTMENTS & CAPITAL MARKETS CONFERENCE, WEDNESDAY, 26 JANUARY 2011

Salutations

I congratulate the Board of the Jamaica Stock Exchange (JSE) and its General Manager, Mrs. Marlene Street-Forrest for organizing what portends to be a most exciting Conference.

I consider this Conference to be both visionary and timely.
