ST JOHN’S, Antigua – Chairman of the Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS) Prime Minister Baldwin Spencer said being a part of the union helped member-states weather the global economic crisis, and that the future of the union looks bright.
“One shudders to contemplate what could have been the condition of our individual OECS member states in the face of the global crisis without the mutual support, which is a central feature of our current integration arrangement,” he said.
Yesterday, the OECS celebrated the 32nd anniversary of the signing of the treaty of Basseterre, which established it in 1981.
