#TurksandCaicos, December 12, 2017 – South Caicos – H.E. the Governor, Dr John Freeman, and Mrs Freeman made an official visit to South Caicos on 6th December.   The Deputy Governor, H.E. Anya Williams, was also part of his delegation.   Following his visit H.E. the Governor commented:

“It was a great pleasure to visit South Caicos again.   I was able to see for myself the damage still evident from the passage of Hurricanes Irma and Maria over the island. Making repairs to homes and public buildings remains a real challenge for the local community.

I also visited two local conch and lobster processing plants and witnessed the determination of both businesses to get back to normal.   I saw for myself the efforts being made by Sailrock, not only to repair damage to their own resort buildings but also to provide assistance to the local community.

And I saw once again the real promise of local young people during my time at the Iris Stubbs Primary and at the Marjorie Basden High School.   South Caicos is a great island with huge potential and I and my wife were grateful for the opportunity once more to see that potential for ourselves.”
