As Chairman of the Caribbean Neighborhood (CARICOM), I categorical deep concern and continued nervousness over the passage of Hurricane Beryl by way of our area. Preliminary stories have indicated important harm and destruction to infrastructure and personal property in some territories. As this climate phenomenon roars its manner by way of the Area, we should proceed to brace ourselves in opposition to the results of excessive winds, storm surges alongside sea coasts, and heavy rainfall.
In mild of those difficult instances, I urge all residents and the personal sector of our area to coordinate intently with their respective governments and regional emergency response mechanisms in offering quick help and reduction to these affected by the hurricane. The Caribbean Catastrophe Emergency Administration Company (CDEMA) is already working to mobilize and coordinate help and catastrophe reduction even because the storm continues to be passing by way of the Windward Islands.
It is a time for all of us as a regional neighborhood to face collectively and lengthen our help to these impacted or prone to be impacted by Hurricane Beryl. Allow us to mobilize the mandatory help and reduction efforts within the true spirit of regional solidarity.
Collectively, we are able to overcome the adversities posed by this hurricane and make sure the security and well-being of all our peoples and communities.
