Mr. Chairman,

STATEMENT BY THE CARIBBEAN COMMUNITY (CARICOM) SECRETARIAT ON THE PASSING OF HIS EXCELLENCY, HENK ARRON, FORMER PRIME MINISTER OF THE REPUBLIC OF SURINAME

 It was with profound sadness that the Caribbean Community learnt of the recent passing of His Excellency, Henck Arron, former Prime Minister of the Republic of Suriname, on 4 December 2000 at the age of 64.

Recently decorated by the Government of Suriname for service to the country, Henck Arron played a key role in the political arena of his beloved country. He will best be remembered for negotiating a three and a half billion guilder 'golden handshake' as part of Suriname's independence package from Holland.

As someone associated with the development of the Single Market and Economy, I most excitedly welcome the publication of the Caribbean Trade and Investment Report 2000. Empirical research has to be the foundation of meaningful policy-making, especially in our rapidly changing regional, hemispheric and global environment, and it is in that regard that this publication will contribute immensely to informing our deliberations on the deepening of the integration process.
