Statement
Dear Governor,
As you and the people of the Virgin Islands celebrate the auspicious occasion of Virgin Islands Day, my wife and I have great pleasure in conveying our warmest congratulations to your Premier, and to the people of the Virgin Islands.
I cherish greatly the strong ties between us and know that we will continue working together on important climate change and environmental issues.
I was pleased to hear how the National Parks Trust of the Virgin Islands has partnered with the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds and the Royal Botanical Gardens at Kew to restore natural habitats on Great and Little Tobago Islands.
As the Youth Empowerment Project celebrates its 20th anniversary this year, I recall my visit to the project in November 2017 to see their important work to help young people deal with the experiences of hurricanes Irma and Maria. I am pleased to hear of their ongoing success in supporting the young people of the Virgin Islands.
My wife and I would like to take this opportunity to send our very best wishes for the year ahead.
Charles R.
