A UWP government will build international airport by 2024 – Isaac Baptiste

UWP President Isaac Baptiste

President of the United Workers Party (UWP) Senator Isaac Baptiste has revealed that the party plans to have an international airport in operation on island by 2024.

He made the announcement during the party’s launch of its candidates for the next general election which took place at the Dame Eugenia Charles Boulevard on Sunday.

 “Team Dominica will have an international airport operational by 2024,” Baptiste announced.

According to Baptiste lands were purchased by the Edison James administration since 1998 on the site recommended by an Engineering Firm.

In an article published on DNO dated October 23rd, 2014 Baptiste said the James government had prepared detailed designs for construction of the facility. A feasibility study had been done and 448 acres of land had been purchased from 161 land owners between Wesley and Woodford Hill for runway and airside facilities construction.

Further, the UWP Government had bought, by private treaty, the Londonderry Estate for hotel development and relocation of farmers who would have been displaced by the project.

“Therefore going forward the people of Wesley, WoodfordHill and Palm Tree in particular…property owners can now have peaceful nights,” Baptiste said “UWP Team Dominica administration confirms that your property, your house will remain yours.”

Baptiste said further that during construction phase of the international airport, the UWP government will seek private sector participation to establish a Dominica-based airline which will provide direct one stop and non-stop flights from Dominica to the ten existing international airports from Puerto Rico in the north to Grenada to the south of Dominica.

“We should no longer continue to invest and depend on LIAT only, to meet our air access needs,” he remarked.

Baptiste went on to say that the UWP will also provide fiscal and other incentives to existing and new players in the passenger ferry industry for guaranteed more regular, fast and safe reliable Ferry Service to Dominica from St Lucia is the south to Antigua in the north.

“UWP Team Dominica will immediately commission a feasibility study to inform expansion of commercial port facilities at Woodbridge Bay and at Long House Glanvillia,” he said.

He mentioned further that new and improved berthing facilities will be placed at Donkey Beach and Cabrits, Portsmouth, yacht marinas and Prince Rupert Bay, Lalay Coco and a Fresh Water Marina in the vicinity of the Layou River mouth.

He said implementation of these projects will be informed by detailed environmental impact studies.

“Timely Completion of these projects will greatly improve performance of the tourism and agriculture sector and the international trade industry resulting in the creation of hundreds of jobs,” Baptiste noted.

Meantime, he made it clear that none of the UWP candidates were offered offered payment to join team Dominica

“Members of the UWP Team know that the work will be tremendous “but we have discipline, experience, competence, commitment and [are] specialization prepared,” Baptiste stated.

He said, furthermore, the party has a vision for every sector of the Nature Island development which it promises to pursue commencing the very first day the UWP is elected into office.

 “For most of the development sectors for immediate attention are, governance and public service, finance, state security, agriculture, tourism, education, health, industry, economic infrastructure,  housing and human settlements and conservation,” he stated.

He said UWP, Team Dominica, under the leadership of Lennox Linton, will persist, strive to make Dominica the best place to work, the best place to live and to enjoy life.

Major initiatives to be implemented by Team Dominica are to improve the quality of life and create 12,000 new jobs by 2025 in Dominica.

    Great ideas full of promise and looking forward will be great for Dominica. It’s a lot of work, but we do need to know the financial sources and steps needed to fund and make these ideas a reality. Of course one step at a time. The investment should first be in the project with the most return, preferably at a low cost to maximize on value.

You have been singing that same old song for years, and for sure not in the interest of Domininca and suffering Dominicans, but in the dark spirit to protect you failed immature irresponsible Odd Minster and his corrupt failed labour corrupt government. Wake up and go get a life. When we see you response or pen nonsense we await for this joke to LOL at you and your failed Skerrit. The intellectual and honesty that beholds the UWP professional Team, there is no way you and your blind corrupt colleagues failed government are no where near this decency in politics. Hon Linton is a champion, strong, decent and knowledgeable of the importance of socio-economic development unlike your failed Skerrit. He must Go and this 19 ministers over this 19 wasted years Domininca has endured under this corrupt Labour government lead by a failed PM must go. Hon Linton & UWP Team will clean up.

      Danziger, its is the same old message and honour they gave to Judas because Jesus out smart im in every way. The same way Judas could not compete with blessed Jesus, it is the same way we know that Skerrit and his failed corrupt Labour Government and blind loyalists cannot compete the intellectual, honesty, decency with Hon Linton and his dedicated and professional UWP Team., like the disciplines of Jesus. Domininca is key and Skerrit and empty clang has destroyed our Domininca and reduced our parents and friends to the lowest as beggars in hundreds at the Financial centre. What a shame and disgust and disrespect, just to buy face whereas Hon .Linton has gained credible fame, that is where Skerrit cannot enter, because he is seen as this failed person who should never have been PM. It`s all about him, his blind loyalists. There is no development taking place in Dominica, from the top of the Financial Centre our assessment, analysis, records our Domininca as a failed State. Skerrit Go.

      DS, you are being personal and not seeing the bigger technical issue and challenge that we face. Stop being a DLP Boom Boom Fly and put Domininca first please. Look at the bigger picture like tourism, employment, a city to be built rather than just sit by and be that little village with no input to soci-economic development. Roseau is a small city so we need to develop elsewhere in Dominica, open up for tourism, income generating and the UWP Team sees that vision and long term plan for Domininca. This is not a Skerrit spontaneous non thinking, ignoramous to what socio-economic development is all about. One has to be disciplined and well informed to pursue this challenge towards bigger better development.This failed Skerrit corrupt Labour government are illiterate to development and engaged in fast food fancy talk about this and that. Skerrit and his failed corrupt labour government have failed us big time. We up in the Financial Centre know this, we see and hear this daily. Skerrit Go.

    I do have an issue with this statement. One has to tread carefully about the promises because no one knows the state of the economy or whether there are any monies in the treasury. Our population is dwindling everyday, who is going to foot the bill?

    • May 21, 2019

      I understand that question because how the other side is spending so money and also wondering if it’s money from the treasury, so one cannot help wondering but where there is a will God will make the way and Dominica and Dominicans will move to the next level so think positive and trust in God for the answers, because I believe he selected these men/women to lead the change and he will never leave them. Today we are all morning the lost of one of those candidates but God moves in a wonderful way , she made the way for her constituency to pick up the mantle and they will adhere to her dream someone will step forward, rest in peace my sister and you will be rejoycing because you took a stand when they win.

      What is the point behind a third international airport?
      OK, so it’s supposed to be really big. Is it supposed to be a hub for St. Kitts?
      How does Dominica, or its tourist trade, benefit from having huge aircraft flying around at low altitude? Perhaps the place should be renamed Jamaica II.

Please try to compare this with Skerrit? What on earth has Skerrit got, “Ductored!!?. Do your really see some level of intellectuism in Skerrit? If so tell us what it was, or what is it, outside of the Bobols, questionable misuse of funds we have been asking for public enquiry, We talk about alot up in the Financial Centre. Skerrit`s credentials is to do, sadly with:1.. The Red Clinic, 2) the Bin Bobol 3) the Fertilizer Bobol, 4) The Red Clinic abusive Bobol scheme. On this matter how on earth a so called Odd Minister have poor people quing begging for cash, our tax money just to appease Skerrit because of his total fake, failure and incompetence as this so called Prime (Odd) Minister. Skerrit must Go.

  9. My Little Take
    May 20, 2019

    DNO I saw the subject of this article and I got turned off when I read: “A UWP government will build international airport by 2024”. After I read the first three paragraphs of the article I saw the word “Operational” by 2024 and that’s when I felt happy. I say so because since 2005 Skerrit told us he going to build international airport and 15 yrs. later it is not in operation. So UWP is not just promising to build international airport but they are telling us the International airport will be operational or in use by 2024, 5 years from now. So that’s not just a promise but a clear vision we can hold on to and hold them responsible for if by Dec 31, 2024 we don’t see international flights flying here. To me I compare what Skerrit and UWP saying about international airport and to me it’s like a man that’s been dating a woman for 15 yrs and every year he keeps telling her he will marry her but 15 years later still no wedding. UWP is like the man that gave her a date to look up…

    Mr Baptiste sorry to say but, a major pronouncement like that would be better served had it come from the leader of the party. You are only the president of the party therefore, your pronouncement carried no weight. Before I leave can you also tell the Dominica public the source of funds for all these projects?

    International airport, marinas, increase the over 70 allowance from 300 to 500, increase public officers salary by 15% (this one came from Letang) and all the other pie in the shy promises.

I hope you realize that if you do not register the party properly, you have a problem. Or is this one of your scam to shout that election was not free and fair. Self styling is so old school. Foolishness by any other name is still foolishness. Making ‘margee’ with yourself seem to be your only constancy. Bing a copy cat is so obvious. I guess your leader did not get expelled for fighting only, but for copying too.

        Neville yes the DLP know all about Pie in the sky, but they know how to bring these pies down to earth where we all can benefit. Sometimes it takes time because you do not have your own resources readily available ( like when you have to buy land and build a house with loans ).But you have patience and tenacity like a hunter of old. The new hospital is a case in point or the houses being built. Because of time constraint Dominican thought it was “pie in the sky’ now these pies are very visible, you can touch them for real. For example the DLP plan for the jet airport will become real.
        But the fictitious empty promises of the TDUWPOD ( Team Dominica United Workers Party Of Dominica ) are just empty political gimmicks . How did Linton who was not a member of the UWP, was not an official convinced Edison James to turn over the uwp party to him. James built this party from scratch. How did Linton get “poor” Dominicans to pay for his legal fees. How did he get Douglas to betr

          Seems like if Skerrit were leaves office Dominica will be doomed because he will take all his money with him. That is what this administration would like everyone to believe.
          Loans obtained by the prime minister is being secured by the people of the country we are going to have to repay these loans. When we receive aid from other countries it is because there are good governments out there. these funds are supposed to be used to better the lives of the citizens of Dominica.
          The money does not belong to Skerrit. He makes you feel that without him there will be no money.

        How did Linton convince Douglas to stand on the Bayfront and betray his family . (Avery tight family) Destroying a dynasty in the making. Why did Linton once referred to him as “only half a Douglas”
        Remember when Linton had his “pie in the sky” budget at the Prevost Cinema just after he got elected. Suddenly he had ” the authority” of a Prime Minister (assumed). Remember when he gave the PM 14 days to vacate and he would be PM (illusional). As for Maria all I will ask for now is where were they. Its like a disserted child asking a mother “where was my daddy when I needed him (no empathy, no love )
        Did they have even an awareness gathering on the Bayfront, did they have a radio fund raiser (scamton) to help anyone. They all had income, did they give one dollar to the poor (greed) now the want cbi money they will do anything (desperation). Not only soothe sawyer can see right through them, with their ill-gotten gains attributes (stale spoilt buggy sour bowl of soup)

      If the UWP can do all of those things in 5 years, why would the DLP Government not be able to do it, in that all finances should come from the Treasury? Or does the UWP have an Al-baba working for them?

God will show us

      In the case of politicians, it should be their work in both “ruling” and “opposition” team as God is controlling their capability. Do you see anything that the UWP has produced so to qualify them for the “rule” over Dominica and her God-fearing people?

      The UWP party is not the One whom God has chosen for Dominica. His chosen On is already at work; He appointed that One by the vote of the people. What God has planned no man can unplan and His work will be done, His way and at His time– MAN HAS NO AUTHORITY OR POWER TO CHANGE GOD’S PLAN; HE DECIDES WHEN IT IS TIME FOR CHANGE– and that time for change is not in the affairs of Dominica.

If you plan on keeping the yes we care program that help and empower our seniors, then there’s no need to change course. There’s a NEP program that employs the able body and you plan on making it better, then you are insecure and intellectually bankrupt.

      I am not seeking any job. I got a job during the days of Mamo.
      You are most likely an illiterate.
      You have been asking for my qualifications ad nauseum. Here they are again. I won’t ask for yours though, because you will be embarrassed.
      7 GCE O’Level passes . Wrote the Cambridge O’Level exams in 1980. 3 B’s, 1 ‘A’ and 3C’s. English C, Maths B, Commerce B, History A, Physics C, Chemistry B Biology C.
      Went to Sifocol, and pursued Advanced Maths and Advanced Economics. Got grade ‘B’ in Advanced Mathematics and ‘C’ in Advanced Economics and ‘B’ in general paper. I was
      poor country boy but always a competitor. Went to work afterwards .
      Hope that you are literate enough to read what has been written.

        Typical % cry cry baby. Your thin skin and ignorance doesn’t qualify you for the job you are seeking. On a daily basis you are insulting the PM, call him LAZY, now you cannot take. Yes for the record, you are a high school dropout. Yes you are a deportee. Yes you referred to yourself as A NOVICE. Yes you have been sued on numerous occasions for untrue statements. It’s just too numerous to mention %.

      @ Me…you only now discover the liars club. Did you notice that they all had a different set of lies at the Bayfront pappy show followed by a joo overt sewo .
      The biggest lie of all they are parading a wanabe leader with no qualification , no experience and no competence. And no sense . He would not qualify to even be a clerk in the Civil Service. He would hardly make it as a messenger. And as for those so called “team” members with their personal agendas they should be ashamed of themselves. They are supposed to be qualified and educated yet they follow a Judas goat. What a waste.

    This time around I believe that UWP Team Dominica has a very good plan for we the citizens of Dominica. It’s time for change, we should give them a chance, if at the end of five years, they don’t deliver we vote them out. We need a change Dominicans. The PM had started his reign humble and good, but with time, money, greed changed him, and he has lost focus. It’s no longer ‘All shall eat’, but ‘some shall eat’, “family and friends of the government shall eat.” We should give Linton a chance to be the PM, we can’t say he will not do a good job, if we don’t give him the chance. His team is impressive, their plans are impressive!! Are we really satisfied with our current economy??? What has the DLP done in the last 15 years?? The people who are current supporters of the DLP are only there because they are gaining something. Let’s pray and ask God to make us see clearly. We do need a change DOMINICANS! Let’s vote wisely…

    This is a party with a plan..No wonder the massive swing of support from DLP to UWP..
    While Skerrit is cooking bad/soup and feeding it stale to his supporters, Team Dominica “UWP” is planning development for Dominica..
    Mr Baptiste is such a potential speaker, that you just have to listen to him Together with patriot Linton, they are the best speakers on both sides of the divide in our broken parliament..
    Well said sir!!!!!
    Skerrit can buy
    Skerrit can sell
    Skerrit can spend$$$$
    But Skerrit cannot win Linton
