 The Government of Taiwan has lent support to the Grosselay Constituency Council in its efforts to upkeep the environment in Rodney Bay Grosselay. The Embassy of Taiwan to St. Lucia has made available EC$5,000 for the procurement of garbage bins for the Rodney Bay area. Grosselay Town Mayor James Edwin received a check for this sum from Ambassador His Excellency Peter Chen on Friday 18th September 2020 in a brief ceremony. The Ambassador was pleased to support this venture, particularly as St. Lucia recoups from the effects of the pandemic, welcoming visitors once more to the island. On behalf of the people and government of Taiwan, I feel very honored to attend the ceremony today to showcase our commitment to the people and government of St. Lucia. As the world gradually reopens in the wake of COVID-19, it's important to remind the world the beauty of St. Lucia and Grosselay City. To show the world that Grosselay residents is getting ready to welcome visitors, with open arms and clean streets. Also on hand Friday was parliamentary representative for the area, Honorable Leonard Mantute. He expressed gratitude to the government and people of the friendly nation for their continued shows of support to St. Lucia. He implored patrons to use the bins that will be placed at strategic locations in Rodney Bay. I want to take this opportunity to make an appeal to my people to utilize those bins properly and ensure that we see a marked improvement in the environment. Not only to make Ambassador Chen and his staff more comfortable, but it makes a statement about us as a people and how we observe proper hygiene practices, good health and show a level of respect and appreciation for our environment. Parliamentary representative for Grosselay, Leonard Mantute.
