Prime minister and minister of foreign affairs, Roosevelt Skerrit, on Monday, November 4, 2013 received a number of Ambassadors and High Commissioners who were in Dominica representing their respective nations as part of Dominica’s 35th Anniversary of Independence.
Paying courtesy call on Prime Minister Skerrit were; Park Dong-sil, Ambassador of the Republic of Korea (South Korea); Celsa Nuno Ambassador of Spain; Vladimir Polenov, Ambassador of the Russian Federation, Mathu Joyini, South African High Commissioner; and Richard Hanley, Canadian High Commissioner.
Alvin Bernard, Minister of State in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Ambassador Steve Ferrol, Cabinet Secretary and Careen Prevost, Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs were also in attendance at the meetings.
Skerrit is a dictator, he is Prime Minister Minister of Foreign affairs and finance minister. and King. Are there any other people in Dominica why does one man have so much power only dictators have that much power he has appointed himself in charge of everything that is what dictators do. He is also the puppet of the PRC who are going to make Dominica a colony.
so you see at least he could have his collar closed up,it looks too radical next to those people then we call our young people unmannerly.
what you all forget the man is a super star.i mean a suit would be more professional as a leader,but when you great vest and boxers for any function and no dog bark.
hahaha! You guys checking the PM ‘S dressing?this is sad, what next? LABOUR POWER
It’s nice to have recieved such distinguished guests. hearts off the our PM. My curious question is where does our president fit into all of this?
Also I may be unaware but I never knew that our PM was minister of foreign affairs,I’ve always known him as Min of Finanace.
Open to corrections.
prime minister, minister of fiance, and foreign affairs one man shame shame
It is more than that. He is the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Minister of Finance, Minister of National Security, labour etc. In fact, he is the government. PERIOD
Skerro the truckers Guys need their monies do u know where it went to these people have bills to pay family to feed loan and much more what is your take on the issue
Skeritt is good at doing two things – grandstanding and fooling his supporters. Now all these dignitaries did was have a good time on the backs of tax payers who are finding it more and more difficult to meet their basic needs. 2 cars from South Korea, Peter Karam could have easily donated that, Spanish courses from Spain, any Cuban graduate could have done that for free, South Africa???? Russia, maybe a few bottles of cheap Vodka – Diplomacy gone MAD!!
Forgive me…although i Support Skerrit – he should have been wearing a tie and a proper suit.
it’s just more professional and fitting the role as he is meeting high level people
Is mr. Skderrit head of State? Why are they calling on him instead of the President, Mr. Savarin? or is Mr. Savarin just a figurehead? I don’t understand this.
forward we go papa skero,
Good job Skerro… keep it alive, I remember when they used to just send letters now they showing up, I remember when Dominica Wasn’t even on the world map, now we der. God Bless.
It doesn’t matter what this man wears he looks good. zor tout JALOUZY!
that’s why you elect him? because he looks good? SOT
“He looks good” and Dominica looks bad. Wake up soola
I hope Skeritt’s main concentration will be on his Foreign dignitaries and what they will offer Dominica in the future, instead on focusing on the UWP coast to coast 25, meet the people tour, which kicks off today .
Who cares really?
With all that façade we are still begging for bread. Don’t be fooled my fellow Dominicans, this is just a face to make believe. Your Country is going down hill with this present leader. Send him packing.
Nothing is taking place; but he just love to show his face. I must laugh….
I’m getting scared by the day for that Country (Dominica).
Sunshine. U are one of those people that like to see misery. One thing, God took Dominica out of the ditches and saved it from people like yourselves. God doesn’t hate us that much to put us back into that mess. Say what you want…….. Skerritt is here to stay.
Your comment made no damn sense.
Sure! he may stay. But not as PM this time.
??? I guess if u dont like his attire u must give him some of yours. Oh yeah, I forgot….. you dont have any….. foolish.
will soon come to an end
next level my people
And what is the significants of this piece? Is it to show the PM knows people.
Apparently they were not here to celebrate with the people of Dominica.
People need to understand that Gov officials are elected to serve the people not the other way around. Did they get a tour of the island and are they going to use there experience in Dominica to encourage there citizens to visit, thereby boosting our tourism industry.
DNO , simple putting up pics of the PM to show he met with visiting embassadors and adding nothing else is a waste of time and news worthy space.
The PM certainly represents Dominica well, you can see the visiting dignitaries are happy to be in Dominica to celebrate our 35 years as an Independent nation – as PM Skerrit is fond of saying “a friend to all, a satellite of none”.
There is a saying a friend of all has no friends
Good job Mr. Prime Minister continue the good works.Forward we go!
The Gravy train coming to a end soon Skero….:-P
Skerritt, go and learn to be an honest leader. A time must come when you got to GO.You are doing all u can to fool the people of DA to hold on to power.
What kind of attire is that for an official visit?
Its a COURTESY visit. It was not an official visit. So its like you home chillin and your friend come to ail you up versus you having a get together and you invite your friend over.
LOL
