The Sun Newspaper, Dominica, 19 March 2024.
The striking thing the paper states is “Dominica reported issuing 34,500 passports through its CBI programme, the Official Gazette only listed 7,700 names from 2007 to 2022 ....”.

As there was NO RESPONSE to my letter sent to Prime Minister Skerrit on 21 August 2021 - or a response from any other member of government - this project is now being pursued by Guyana. Dominica's loss is Guyana's gain.

Anyone know what is going on in Dominica?
The attached letter was sent to the PM's office on 23 August 2021. We are now 28 June 2023 and a substantive response has not been received, despite sending chasing emails!

It seems things move exceedingly slow in Dominica.

As the Dominica Overseas Nationals Association (DONA) prepares to celebrate its 45th Anniversary on 11 June 2023, a search through the digital archives has revealed Darren Sylvester's article contained in the 40th Anniversary Commemorative Brochure in June 2018.

Always a good Sunday afternoon.

Since 1995 Darren Sylvester's records show that in the men v women tug of war, the men have 14 wins and the women have 10 wins.

There was not a Fun Day held in 2020 or 2021 due to COVID-19. The outcome of 2022 is hotly contested :)
