Chief Agricultural Officer Ashley Caine delivering the vote of thanks at the recent handing over ceremony of Buses and Agricultural Machineries to SVG government from the Republic of China on Taiwan said; “ Who would lift up an atom of space so that a child would dream”.
Caine said, a sufficiency of things and ways in which this can be done was outlined by the Prime Minister, as he endeavors to lift up these atoms of space in St Vincent and the Grenadines, so that our children can dream of a better future and be able to achieve.
The CAO noted that he remembered his school experience from the seventies, where they were privileged under a labour administration to have a school bus which took them from Richland Park to Kingstown.
Caine says when he see’s the challenges some of the nation’s youth faces with the various public transport; he longed for the time when we could have a more systematic program for the transportation of school children.
Caine said looking at the buses on display Monday afternoon, the only thing he wants is for those responsible for ensuring that the buses remain in good condition and provide proper service, carry that function.
“I ask and implore you to take it as your own so that we don’t have to come back here in five years time to call for buses again, but we would be back for things that would advance us as a people even further”.
Caine thank the government of Taiwan and says he looks forward to the relationship between both countries as a result of these kinds of investment growing from strength to strength.
