SUN St. Kitts & Nevis News reported:
Students in Nevis now have the opportunity to expand their knowledge on the development of St. Kitts/Nevis. They received copies of a new publication “St. Kitts and Nevis, A Portrait of a Nation, Celebrating 25 years of Independence” authored by Federal Minister Dr. Timothy Harris on 8 Oct., at the Red Cross conference room. The donation was made possible through the collaborative effort of the First Caribbean International Bank.
The book is titled “St. Kitts and Nevis, A Portrait of a Nation, Celebrating 25 years of Independence.” It was compiled over the past year. It outlines St. Kitts and Nevis’ transition from a British slave colony, to an independent nation. The book also points to the Federation’s increasing presence on the world stage.
Dr. Harris said the bank along with other entities in the Federation had seen the need for corporate involvement and provided sponsorship to enable schools and educational institutions to have copies of the publication.
Harris urged the students of the Federation to utilise the book for research in the area of history and said it was important that they understood their past and appreciated it…
“You have to plan, you have to have a sense (belonging) and the earlier you plan what you want in life the easier it becomes to manage your life … If you are going to be the genuine leaders that take us to the next stage of development, you have to be a lot more prepared than the leaders before you.”
