I wish to take this opportunity, on behalf of the Government of the Virgin Islands, the Ministry for Transportation, Works and Utilities, and the British Virgin Islands Electricity Corporation (BVIEC), to apologize to all residents who were affected in some way by this morning’s power outage.
Residents and Citizens of the Virgin Islands, I greet you with a spirit of love and humility in this graduation season, and I extend congratulations to all the students and families celebrating at this time.
Fellow residents of the Virgin Islands, for too long we have been faced with the challenges of improper and inefficient waste management strategies. It is now a subject that must be addressed and solved.

De-risking continues to place excessive burdens on the region’s financial infrastructure and impedes our countries’ and territories’ abilities to effectively engage in global business and have sustainable economic growth.
Fellow Virgin Islanders, I want to take this opportunity to congratulate the members of our public and private services sectors for their stellar performance over the last weekend during which several international music performers visited the Territory for two concert performances; one being Reggae legend Buju Banton’s Long Walk to Freedom world tour and the other Soca Wee.
Of all the rocks upon which we build our lives, we are reminded today that family is the most important. We are called to recognise and honour how critical every father is to that foundation.
Residents of the Virgin Islands, I am Carvin Malone your Minister for Health and Social Development here with a progress report on the first 100 days in office.
