Residents of Bense, Pointe Michel Receive Independence gifts from Martinique

The supplies being unloaded on the beach

On Friday 3rd November a small flotilla of 4 fishing boats arrived in Dominica from Martinique with relief supplies for the residents of Pointe Michel and Bense.

The operation dubbed, An Pal Po Domimk, was organized by the Association “Soulaje difficulte Frew,” assisted by the fishermen of the municipality of Precheur who transported the supplies which included a small quantity of fresh fish.

The president of the Association Jean-Yves MOLIDOR indicated that they would be making weekly trips to Dominica as longs a need existed for relief supplies in the island. They expect to make Grand Bay the major recipient of their next shipment.

Transportation of the supplies was provided gratis by popular taxi driver Willie Jno Lewis better known as KOJAK.

    At least they getting duty free aid, direct from the people to the people without government interference and political motives. This as at should be. I welcome that is initiative very much. And by the way, all that independence nonsense and partying. This shows we all are dependent on one another. We would be far better off in an a close association with our French neighbours to the north and south. For a start we would not need that pompous and expensive President.

    How kind of them and to return as long as it is needed. At times as this we know those who are truly generous, going that second mile without counting the cost and time, to make life better for others.
    God bless you!

    It doesn’t look like d hurricane pass Citronier
    Because I haven’t seen Citronier getting relief.
    There are people of age who needs stuffs too.
    They barely getting anything.
    When ask for relief I heard that the relief is for the new town shelter.
    Not everybody in Citronier can afford to buy their stuffs.
    Come bring food for the people of age and d less fortunate in Citronier

      That’s because you voted UWP. If want supplies call Josiah and he will organize delivery after midnight from his ride :twisted: as long as you all promise to vote DLP next election. You can also contact Daryl Titre if Josiah can’t be reached. Shhhhhhh!

      Assertive as Donald Trump! :twisted:
