Last week, the storms surged for an entire week and most of the ferries, certainly the main ones, were “grounded”. Only the water taxis, the Apple Syder and the Sea Bridge were in operation and only for the brave at heart. We certainly missed the main ferries then. There was a time, not so long ago, when sea transport was different. In fact, this may be an opportune time to reminisce on how far we have come in terms of sea transportation. For many years, sea transportation was controlled by the Government. There was the Silver Arrow, a wooden sloop that plied between the two islands. That was followed by the ill-fated MV Christena that sank in 1970. After this there was the MV Liamuiga and then the MV Caribe Queen. With the last of them, the Caribe Queen, there was one trip to in the morn- ing and another in the afternoon, and nothing in between on Mondays to Saturdays, except for Thursdays which was reserved for servicing of the boat. Most trips were early morning and late afternoon except for Tuesdays when the return leg to Nevis was at 2:00 pm. There were some private boats in the early days, boats like the SV Sakara, but these were mostly cargo boats, which sometimes carried passengers. These were wind driven boats that sometimes took days to sail from st Kitts to Nevis. The MV Spirit of Mount Nevis was among the first privately owned passen- ger ferry to operate between the islands, and in a way, paved the way for the ferries that now exist.

  • CCM 2010 Manifesto
    Concerned Citizens Movement Manifesto 2010 ALL THREE FOR WE LEADERSHIP YOU CAN TRUST CONCERNED CITIZENS MOVEMENT Memorializing The Life and Times of The Hon Malcolm Guishard Although we have had a by-election to fill the vacancy in St. Paul’s/St. John’s Constituency – Nevis 9, following the untimely passing of the Hon. Earl Malcolm Guishard on 12th June 2007, and the Concerned Citizens Movement was successful in retaining the seat, these are the first general elections since the death of our beloved stalwart. Much has been said about the life and times of the Hon. Malcolm Guishard or “Guish” as he was affectionately known. Notwithstanding all that has been said, much more needs to be said. The Concerned Citizens Movement is eternally grateful for the contribution he has made. His political savvy, coupled with his wellspring of energy and verve were dispensed selflessly and our Party, our beloved island of Nevis and indeed the Federation of St. Kitts/Nevis have been the beneficiaries. The Hon. Malcolm Guishard served the Concerned Citizens Movement for twenty (20) years. He served the people of Nevis in government for fourteen (14) years. He represented the Constituency of St. John’s in the Nevis Island Assembly for fourteen years. He represented the Constituency of St. Paul’s/St. John’s in the Federal Assembly for fourteen (14) years and the people of St. Kitts and Nevis for four (4) years as Leader of the Opposition in the Federal Parliament. There is perhaps no other who has consistently, passionately and vociferously championed the need for Nevis to have its own independent government than the Hon.

  • Saint Kitts and Nevis 2018 Human Rights Report
    SAINT KITTS AND NEVIS 2018 HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Saint Kitts and Nevis is a multiparty parliamentary democracy and federation. Queen Elizabeth II is the head of state. The governor general is the queen’s representative in the country and certifies all legislation on her behalf. The constitution provides the smaller island of Nevis considerable self-government under a premier. In the 2015 national elections, Team Unity, a coalition of three opposition parties, won seven of the 11 elected seats in the legislature. Team Unity leader Timothy Harris was elected prime minister. Independent observers from the Organization of the American States (OAS) concluded the election was generally free and fair but called for electoral reform, noting procedural difficulties in the election process resulted in the slow transmission of results. Civilian authorities maintained effective control over the security forces. Human rights issues included child abuse and criminalization of same-sex activity between men, although the law was not enforced during the year. The government took steps to prosecute and convict officials who committed abuses, but some cases remained unresolved. Section 1. Respect for the Integrity of the Person, Including Freedom from: a. Arbitrary Deprivation of Life and Other Unlawful or Politically Motivated Killings There were no reports that the government or its agents committed arbitrary or unlawful killings. b. Disappearance There were no reports of disappearances by or on behalf of government authorities. c. Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman, or Degrading Treatment or Punishment SAINT KITTS AND NEVIS 2 The constitution prohibits such practices, and there were no reports that government officials employed them.
