MINISTER of Local Government and Rural Development Desmond McKenzie says the Jamaican Government is organizing support for St Vincent and the Grenadines (SVG), now being affected by the La Soufriere volcano.
“Our Government has been in contact with the Government of St Vincent and the Grenadines, and we are organizing logistical and other forms of support to our brothers and sisters there. We are also fully aware that this devastating event has evoked great concern from our corporate and general citizenry. We are working closely with the Ministry of Agriculture and other private sector partners, which include the Jamaica Manufacturers and Exporter’s Association, to finalize relief efforts.
