THE vice president of the Trinidad and Tobago Student Association at the UWI Mona Campus, Jamaica, has commended the High Commission's assistance following the passage of Hurricane Melissa.

Jaden Paris said the support provided was vastly different from what was received prior to the catastrophic storm, which left many dead and damaged infrastructure.

In a video posted on Facebook days before the category-five storm hit, students had complained they only received a few items including canned sausages, crackers, peanut butter, and tea to share amongst themselves as they bunkered down.
