No local CARICOM 50 events

Dear Editor,

The Caribbean Community, Caricom, is fifty.  How time flies.  The Community has been around for half a century.

 Over in Trinidad, where the Treaty was signed by the four founding fathers, heralding the formation of the Commu-nity, the 45th Heads of Government Meeting is taking place amid Caricom at Fifty events. 

A significant milestone of the Commu-nity seems to be passing, hardly recognised.  I do not recall seeing anything about events marking Caricom at Fifty locally. 

Has Caricom become irrelevant in this its golden anniversary?

Yours faithfully,

Shamshun Mohamed
