T&T ‘hot seat’ for CARICOM

Jun 26, 2013

PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad - A WEEK from tomorrow Heads of Government of the 15-member Caribbean Community and Common Market (CARICOM) should be in Port of Spain for a three-day regular annual summit that officially gets underway on Thursday, July 4.
The historical significance of this regular summit being hosted in Port of Spain to coincide with the 40th anniversary of the regional economic integration movement is undoubtedly a proud occasion for the people and Government of Trinidad and Tobago, where CARICOM had its ceremonial inauguration at Chaguaramas.
It is expected that the opportunity will be seized at the formal opening ceremony for reflections on the vision and commitment that resulted in the inauguration of CARICOM whose principal quartet of “founding fathers’’ have long passed away.
