There are times when the Caribbean’s demonstration of unity, particularly among members of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM), is admirable.Examples of the cooperation and agreement occur on several levels. We have spoken with one voice on the need to end the unconscionable United States of America economic embargo of our Caribbean neighbour, Cuba.We come together to ensure that our University of the West Indies (UWI) remains one of the premiere global higher institutions of learning.The Revised Treaty of Chaguaramas has ensured that we codified how members including Antigua and Barbuda, The Bahamas, Barbados, Belize, Dominica, Grenada, Guyana, Jamaica, Montserrat, St. Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, Suriname, and Trinidad and Tobago will operate and treat each other in commercial and trading activity.  It also speaks to the treatment of citizens.
