Business leaders were optimistic about the new Cabinet announced on March 17 under newly appointed Prime Minister Stuart Young. They affirmed their commitment to working with the new Cabinet members.

Greater San Fernando Area Chamber of Commerce president Kiran Singh said the business community was not completely surprised by the new Cabinet, as many of the members remained the same.

“It was common sense for the PM to retain the Ministry of Energy and Energy Industries portfolio as he was involved in many of the negotiations which would have taken place over the last few years.”
