 Welcome to the NTN Nightly, I'm Nisha Charles, this edition's top stories. Saint Lucia's Prime Minister makes a case for the redesigning of economic models to the benefit of small island states. The Gordon and Walker Methodist Primary School becomes the first school in Saint Lucia to appoint school safety officers. The Lightning Aquatic Swim Club gives back, all that plus the NTN Nouvelle Arcueole. Prime Minister Hon. Alan Shashne is among world leaders who are in New York for the 74th session of the United Nations General Assembly. Several forums are being held on the sidelines of the General Assembly. Hon. Shashne on Monday participated in one of those, a panel discussion on the topic, transforming markets, redesigning today's economic models at the World Economic Forum's Sustainable Development Impact Summit. The discussion focused on the measurements of productivity and economic growth, as well as human prosperity, natural capital health and community resilience, more from Genelle Norville. Quote, how can we build a market that people want, and will take into account matters of sustainability, inequality and climate change, and quote, was a focal point of the discussions at the World Economic Forum. Prime Minister of Saint Lucia and Caribbean Community, Karikam Chairman, Hon. Alan Shashne indicated that while he believes the world is not ready for the required changes to also take into account environmental issues, including greenhouse gas emissions and the issue of climate change, he noted that the emergence of a more conscious set of consumers is pushing the business world in this direction. In the meanwhile, you have a new consumer that's coming out that is now demanding that change and is now purchasing totally differently. So you hear people saying, I'm not going to eat meat because meat or cows are second largest emitters of carbon emissions. So if the consumer now starts reacting to those things, is the system set up to be able to deal with that? And see, this is where I think a small island developing state comes in. So imagine if a country of 180,000 people can find the solutions to be sustainable and viable. And that you now go the way that we're thinking. We're saying, let us, I had to write it down again, think small and act smart, right? Because it's about being small now. All of a sudden, where the big part was the economies of scale, but it wasn't being priced in because you have the transportation to bring everything else to the distributor on a world basis. Because I go to a restaurant in an island, Bali, I want to get fresh produce from Bali. And now people are saying, that's what they want. They don't want the canned juice that comes from somewhere else. The prime minister indicated that the consumer now has the power to change the market. He explained that wants and needs are able to influence the choices made by businesses. I'm seeing a lot of people now when they're traveling around the world, what's the number one word? Authenticity. And that authenticity and that requirement to be different is what I think is going to be that fundamental change. And she was like, Melata is right in that the power is in the consumer. The consumer now is starting to realize that they actually in fact have a lot of power. And we have seen some game changers. So the internet has made information more readily available. The internet allows me to go and book my vacation and research my vacation. Whereas what did we do before? The lazy way went to a travel agent or a tour operator. They had a nice brochure, cut down a lot of trees to be able to produce the brochure. And we were being told where to go versus the ability to research and find things that share the same values as us. So this is the game changer that we're depending upon to make the change. And I think that if the world can genuinely focus on one thing, because we've asked the UN, the UN was established in order to prevent a third world war from taking place. And I think the greatest threat to a world war right now is the inequity. I genuinely believe as a politician that there should be a minimum standard of living that every single human being in this world deserves. The Prime Minister is expected to deliver his statement to the general debate of the United Nations General Assembly on Friday, September 27, 2019. For the Government Information Service, I am Janelle Norvel. Main time relations between India and Karakam are expected to heighten when the respective representatives engage in several bilateral meetings during the week of the UN General Assembly. We hear more on the Karakam position in this report by Karakam News Time. Karakam Secretary-General Ambassador Irwin LaRocke anticipates that diplomatic political cooperation between the community and India will deepen when the two sides meet in New York for the first Karakam India Summit. Heads of Government of Karakam will have discussions with the Honourable Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi on Wednesday, the 25th of September on the sidelines of the 74th session of the United Nations General Assembly. The new Ambassador of India to Karakam, Dr. K. J. Srinivasa, is optimistic that this high-level engagement will pave the way for enhanced bilateral relations, particularly in the area of trade. He said during the period April 2018 to March 2019, India's trade with Karakam was pegged at 674.32 million US dollars. Dr. Srinivasa said immense opportunities exist for Karakam and India to further enhance bilateral trade in areas such as agriculture and food security, health and pharmaceuticals, small and medium enterprises, marine development and oceanography and disaster management. The Ministry of Education, Innovation, Gender Relations and Sustainable Development has achieved a major milestone in its school safety program. Students at the Gordon and Walker Primary School began training in basic safety procedures over two years ago, which included hazard analysis, first aid and fire safety. The training forms part of the model's safe schools program and initiative designed to incorporate comprehensive disaster risk management considerations into school sector policies. That training has blossomed and students are now school safety officers, a first for the school and St. Lucia. They completed a very intense summer camp with Ms. Eriste and her team in completing and concreting all of the training that they had done over the last two years. We thought it's such a keen initiative to start this group here at our school and be the trailblazers and the trendsetters for what school safety should become, that we are empowering our students, that they can become the agents of safety and the agents of change in our schools. But for us, succession was important. Our officers are in grade six. That means they will be leaving our schools soon. So what the teachers have done is identified a group of students from grade five, who we are going to install today as school safety training officers, and they will be trained throughout the course of this school year to take over from our patrol officers in the third term. Health and safety officer with the Department of Education, Innovation and Gender Relations, Pnez Kodra says the aim is to empower students to practice safety in and out of schools. It is not just for the school, but you will practice safety whilst you are walking on the streets, whilst you are at home, whilst you are in your community. And so safety will become something at the forefront of everybody's mind. And we are hoping that as we continue this process, that our country will become a safer place for everybody. Marfa Forster is the district education officer for the school. I want to congratulate the Gordon and Walcott Memorial Methodist School on taking this initiative, receiving the training and implementing the training, which is important. The program is being funded by the Caribbean Development Bank and implemented by the Caribbean Disaster Emergency Management Agency, SIDEMON. And this is DNTN 90. Stay with us. I am a child. I am HIV positive. I am a Muslim. I'm a journalist. I am gay. I'm a political activist. I'm differently abled. I am Chinese and me, I'm a little plus size. The first step toward change is awareness. The second step is acceptance of individuality and differences within all of us. A message brought to you by the Department of Health and Wellness. Welcome back. The Lightning Aquatic Swim Club is giving back to the society by reaching out to young persons through the Ministry of Equity, Social Justice, Local Government and Empowerment, Heshev Romarius. The Lightning Aquatic Swim Club has continued to demonstrate the support to the government and people of St. Lucia by donating school supplies to the Ministry of Equity, Social Justice, Local Government and Empowerment. The ceremony was held at the Ministry's conference room on Friday, September 20th, 2019. Public relations officer, Miss Karate Cook Charles, expressed her enthusiasm in assisting the poor and vulnerable in St. Lucia. This is our third year doing this. It's called Lightning Aquatics Walk in My Shoes Initiative. And we are extremely happy that this year it's much bigger. We have quite a variety of things. When we first started, we focused mostly on donating shoes because when we reached out to Miss Tussé, she shared with us a long list of persons in need. And when I saw that list, I remember being overwhelmed because I said to her, we can't possibly help everybody, but we're going to try. And as the years progressed, we kept giving more. She also mentioned that there was a need for school uniforms in good condition, stationary books, et cetera. So that's what we tried to do this time around. The supplies range from school pants, shoes, notebooks, storybooks, school socks, school uniforms and stationery. Deputy Director in the Welfare Unit, Miss Tussé, extended special thanks to the donors for the much needed books and supplies. Thanks for all of your support. Thanks for caring and thanks for making the effort every year to know that walking my shoes is continuous. It started three years ago and it's continuing. Don't think that your gifts or your presents are just for hair. It's not just for the castries basin. It goes far and wide. The island-wide, all of our officers from the various regions on the island are here. And then we try to distribute as evenly as we can with whatever it is that we have. The Lightning Aquatic Swim Club is the winner of the Coveted Club of the Year Award for 2017.

Tussanke in English, Francis of Caracom News Time has the latest.

That is because I have prepared the government in full in order to improve the situation in the country by 40% in 2020. There are many ways that the government is in full to address this situation. It is to pay more attention to its police operations and results to employ more police officers in this area.
