KINGSTON, Jamaica – News from Trinidad & Tobago read: “Caribbean Community (CARICOM) leaders met in Port-of-Spain this past Tuesday and agreed to the formation of a Commission on the Economy as they seek to revive the ailing economies of the 15-member regional grouping.”
CARICOM Commission on the Economy, said Kamla Persad-Bissessar, who chaired the CARICOM Bureau meeting, “should address the priority areas for fiscal sustainability, resource mobilisation as well as critical economic infrastructure services, particularly energy and ICT (Information Communication Technology).”
What should we understand from these big words strung together? What actually does the Chair of the CARICOM Bureau mean?
