 In a display of international solidarity and kindness, the Taiwanese government has generously provided essential mobility aids to the Ministry of Equity, Social Justice and Empowerment for distribution to vulnerable citizens. During a ceremony on March 12, 2024 at the Ministry's conference room, the benevolent gesture was celebrated, signifying a step forward in improving the lives and mobility of the elderly and differently abled individuals around St. Lucia. The event featured a moving speech by the Acting Deputy Permanent Secretary, Celia Charles Arthur, who expressed deep appreciation for Taiwan and highlighted the collaborative efforts it took to secure the donated items. I want to take this opportunity to thank the people of Taiwan for their contribution and support. Your donations will make a significant difference in the lives of those who receive them. I also want to thank Team Equity, who continue to work hard to distribute these donations to those who need them the most. In conclusion, I would like to say that the donations is not just about providing mobility, it is about restoring dignity and independence to those who need it the most. The donation comprised 72 manual wheelchairs, 42 aluminum walkers, 20 steel folding commodes and 100 aluminum canes. The items will be distributed with the coordinated efforts of social transformation officers, welfare officers, division of human services family case workers and SSDF officers. The ambassador of the Republic of China to St. Lucia's Excellency Peter Chen expressed his delight during the handover of the Second Consignment of Mobile Ad amenities. Today I am very happy to deliver the second batch of wheelchairs, steel folding commode chairs and single armed walkers to Ministry of Equity, Social Justice and Empowerment. Taiwan is always proud to be part of St. Lucia government's endeavors in social intervention. I believe today's donation would empower individuals to navigate their life with confidence and self-respect. The Honourable Joachim Henry, Minister of Equity, Social Justice and Empowerment, reflected on the significance of the event, emphasizing the shared values and cooperative spirit between Taiwan and St. Lucia in promoting social inclusion and independence. Today we have additional supplies it is in demand and we cannot stop but help in persons who are not mobile. Let's accentuate the fact how serious we take this issue of persons who are differently able and to provide the means and support for them to be able to participate in livelihoods for them to participate in the social bringing of their children and their family and to feel included in the business of St. Lucia. Mobility holds significant importance for the elderly and differently abled individuals as it directly correlates with their independence, overall well-being and participation in daily activities. Distribution of the mobility items are set to begin on March 18, 2024, from the Ministry of Equity, Social Justice and Empowerment, Jevre Marius.
