PRESIDENT Christine Kangaloo has expressed boundless pride in her heritage in her Republic Day remarks on September 24.

She called on citizens to remember who they are as a nation and what can be done when, as a nation, we aspire to achieve.

“I am proud to be a Trinbagonian – proud not just of our accomplishments, but of the strength of spirit, breadth of vision and audacity of hope we continue to exercise, especially when we do so as a united national community,” she said. “I am proud of the way we come together in times of crisis. I am proud of the way we reach out to help our neighbours when they are in need and I am proud of how we both celebrate our diversity and set aside our very real differences when it matters most.”
