Last update: 11 hours ago

Cycling Spotlight: Sage Williams is set for his OECS Cycling Championships debut on Sunday, May 31, riding for St Vincent and the Grenadines in the Youth category, with the race starting 7:00 a.m. from Old Parham Road to St John’s. Climate Finance Push: Ahead of UN talks in Bonn, Antigua and Barbuda’s Michael Joseph backed SIDS calls for a full overhaul of global climate finance, warning that “high income” status blocks critical support despite disproportionate damage from hurricanes. Healthcare Upgrades: Government says free corneal replacement surgeries will be introduced soon via a US partnership, and Cabinet has approved a specialized cognitive behavioural centre to support autism and neurodivergent families. Tourism Investment: Ediacaran Group broke ground on the US$200m Long Bay Zen Resort, pitching sustainability, “quiet luxury,” and AI services including an underwater chapel. Public Safety & Preparedness: WIOC completed a multi-agency emergency response exercise, while NODS revived a national hurricane church service for Sunday and urged final-season readiness. Sports & National Pride: Shawnisha Hector’s West Indies Women’s World Cup selection drew congratulations from St George MP Michael Freeland. Regional Affairs: Antigua and Barbuda also advanced border-security reform proposals at CARICOM, including a biometric “CariPass” concept.
