In light of the economic situation in Venezuela the St Lucian government, through the Ministry of Education, has decided to return 22 medical students home.
Permanent Secretary, Esther Brathwaite said that the welfare of students is a top priority of St Lucia and it was, therefore, imperative that the students be returned home.
Brathwaite said in a press statement on Thursday that the students will be allowed to continue their studies, as alternative arrangements are being put in place.
“Once the students satisfy the matriculation requirements of an accredited university, the students will be able to pursue higher education,” she stated.
Y’all need to think b4 y’all talk
Don’t just suggest things find out information first….the Dominican students came back already for almost a month now jeeeezzzzz with some of y’all
So why did the big chief not make a big noise about that? Did he do it surreptitiously?
And DNO said absolutely nothing????
Did GIS announce it? Did DBS, Kairi FM or Vibes? If it really happened, and to my mind nobody has officially confirmed it, it would have been done very quietly, perhaps with the students sworn to secrecy, because it would confirm that despite all its claims and rhetoric our government does realize that things are not well in Venezuela and our young people are at risk in that country.
Great move … Hopefully the Dominican students (if any) will return home likewise, but according to the liar Ambassador, everything is a-ok.
Always Assertive!
Can the resident Venezuelan Ambassador please comment on this issue. Things appear to be spinning out of control in Venezuela. Any news on our precious citizens that are over there? I guess our SSU are already over there protecting them since they are also vulnerable.
Always Assertive!
Is there something the St. Lucia government knows, which we don’t?
Dominica government take example….you are fast to publish when Venezuela give them scholarship now they in trouble I not hearing nothing. Bring the students home! Anybody knows whats being done for the Dominican students?
Where are their parents,?
Can’t their parents bring them home?
No their parents can’t help them!! Maybe they will see their children on tv looting or looking hungry n getting meg but as they might be skerrit supporters,,,they will say no not their children, skerrit taking care of them,,,,Linton is spreading lies,,,all those videos and pics are lies…Venezuela is thriving,,,,keep those blinders over your eyes while u see so many wrong doings taking place, but skerrit is their God!! they have faith in him,,he can do no wrong he is their SAVIOR….
I understand that…but the government can at least help the parents. Even if is to help with half the return tickets.
What none sense are you talking about? The government sent them to study, think before you post crap here. Takes
Dominican students are home already been home a few week and are being sent elsewhere as far as im aware.
Details please! Is this supposed to be a secret?
Of course, it will be a secret! otherwise, they would have to admit that something is wrong in Venezuela! Remember, we are too believe that all is well.
Correction, * we are to believe that all is well.
