When Caribbean Community (CARICOM) Heads of Government meet in Suriname from 3-5 July, the implementation of the CARICOM Single Market and Economy (CSME), food security and governance will be among the key matters for consideration.

In a pre-summit interview, CARICOM Secretary-General, Dr. Carla Barnett, said President of Guyana, His Excellency Dr. Mohamed Irfaan Ali, is to present a report following the CARICOM Agri Investment Forum and Expo. President Ali holds responsibility for agriculture in the CARICOM Quasi Cabinet.
