She has totally fallen for the unrelenting misinformation of this diabolical regime. Clearly, the lady is completely on enlightened about the daily hardships and suffering of the beleaguered citizens descent on Dominica.
She most certainly has not seen the burgeoning population of vagrants aimlessly wandering the street, the exploding high unemployment rate especially among the youth; the rapid growth of inflation; the exploding cases of NCDs; the death rate out-pacing the birth rate; the exodus of young people leaving the island in droves in search of something more promising than their current circumstances.
Lady, get yourself informed before making these spurious assertions.
