A new feature has been added to this year’s November 4th national beautification exercise.
Cabinet Secretary Felix Gregoire says the beautification initiative, which was introduced three years ago, will be continued this year.
He says however the special feature will be a system of judging introduced to award the best projects.
“Government has made funds available to village councils and some community groups for projects to be undertaken on that day. The theme for that day is ‘Beautification as we Continue our Drive to Beautify Dominica for Ourselves’. This year’s special feature will be a special will be a system of judging so that the best projects can be rewarded. This will continue for a period of time,” he said.
He said all Dominicans should continue to keep Dominica clean and green.
Meantime the customary November 4th Street Jump Up, which culminates the National Community Day of Service, is expected to go on as usual.
Two local bands have already confirmed their participation in the event.
When one of your children or relative becomes the next Cabinet Secretary or PM or Minister or any other leadership position, would you want persons to treat them with such disrespect that you all are doing right now??????? Food for thought and put it in your pipe and smoke it.
Give Felix a break you negative parlerers. Go get something to do in your community and beautify your heart and respect yourself first and then others. This is one of the biggest problems – Disrespect for authority – the first one being God himself who has given us instruction for daily living which if we would follow, we would see that we have to respect authority and love oneanother. He is supreme and the ausome so when he is ready, he will do what needs to be done. All we have to do is obey his words.
GARBAGE! GARBAGE ! GARBAGE!
Mr Gregoire is there a passport story going around? Can you please inform us.
Stupeeeeeeeeeeeees Out of context… Wasting your time on trivialities. Take stock and see how much time you have wasted and parler and done nothing positive.
From today pledge to start managing your time as the young man Sidney Jules have advised and see what positive you can impact on the lives of others.
Stop being a supporter of evil deeds.Stop being a sycophant.Stop helping to spoil Dominica. Reform your lazy mind, and start being upright.
We need to beautify Dominica starting from our hearts.Dominicas most important resource is its people.A people who is corrupt from the heart,will reach nowhere in their bid to appealing to the populace to try to be upright.We need to beautify Dominica,from corruption,poverty and indigence.
After 33 years corruption in government has reached a peak.
Well take the lead and do what you have to do since you are the first who is not corrupt from the heart. Collect those who are like you and not co rrupt and start something for DA and I am sure when others see that you are not corrupt in the heart then they will join you. Too much talk, we need action oriented persons who will things not for self gratification but for the love of fellowmen as Christ would like to be.
“Beautification as we Continue our Drive to Beautify Dominica for Ourselves”
That theme sounds like text that badly translated from Russian to English.
Remind me never to ask these guys to give me any advice on branding anything. A theme has to be easy and catchy. This one is anything but.
good job do all u can to keep it alive
Gregoire you look tied, go take a rest and enjoy your pension and leave this in peace . I believe you wil look better tank.
There you go. Dominica’s slogan. “KEEP DOMINICA CLEAN AND GREEN” Nice one Mr. Gregoire.
Great inititaive you alone that could have thought of this out of the box feature.
You all jokig too much in this country, u hear me…
I thought there was something like that in place already couple years ago.
but DNO doh get the passport story yet man????
Stop wasting your time parlering and parlering and hating and being nagative and out of context. Do and say something positive for once.
Dominica does not need “beautifying” she just needs people to stop despoiling her God given beauty.
We need a national fix it day where citizens go out in their neighborhoods and fix the road, cut the bushes, etc. The island is already beautiful due to nature. We also need less landfilling with garbage and toxic substances and more recycling.
Is this man still being payed with tax payers money?
Mr/MS negative please get another screen name . I do not want to be mistaken for you since I have never seen a positive comment from you. All you spew is hatred and Jealousy. STop this and start to love so you will live!
I dont think the next cab. sec will want to occupt this office, the distinguish Mr julien Johnson must be asking himself the question if this was the best successor the government could find to replace him.
