PNM Women thanks PM

Rowley is also PNM political leader and Diego Martin West MP. In a statement, Women’s League chairman Camille Robinson-Regis said, “Despite the difficult economic times, Dr Rowley by his leadership has been able to hold this country together by taking the people into his confidence.”

Robinson-Regis, who is also Planning Minister, said this was demonstrated last Sunday when Rowley presented a report that not only told the country of the challenges we faced but, “he also identified that the government had a clear plan to take us out of those difficulties.” She said the Women’s League recognises that the main burden in difficult economic times like these, usually fall on the women of TT. “It is the mothers and caregivers who will be called upon to shoulder the responsibility to keep the families of the country together,” she said.

Observing that Rowley gave the assurance that Government is definitely up to the challenge of steering the country in the right direction, Robinson-Regis said the Women’s League awaits the presentation of the 2016/2017 Budget in Parliament on September 30,” when the plan for the next financial year will be announced” She concluded, “We encourage the women of the PNM and indeed of the nation to heed the call to make TT a better place to live by playing our part in nurturing a safe, productive society. We can do this together.”
