Prime Minister of Barbados Mia Mottley last evening made a pitch to this country’s manufacturing sector to involve the entire CARICOM community and she underscored the importance of diversifying away from the oil economy.
The Barbados PM made these remarks as the featured guest speaker at the Guyana Manufacturing and Services Association (GMSA) dinner and awards ceremony at the Ramada Princess at which she spoke virtually.
She exhorted the attendees, “May you use this milestone moment to reflect and where necessary to reset and retool, to further elevate your organization, your country, and indeed our region. I say our region because I truly believe the time is right for a more strategic and collaborative approach on the socio-economic development of the Caribbean.”
