This is in reference to a letter we have written to the Prime Minister of SVG asking him to immediately reinstate all teachers and government workers to their respective jobs and to compensate them for their lost of earnings. This letter has been copied to all relevant teachers Union, trade unions, civil society and activists groups within the Caribbean. Upon receipt of the letter we asked that they endorsed same and deliver it to the SVG's respective embassy in their country.

The First Wave Movement attempted to and was unsuccessful in delivering this letter at the SVG Embassy in Trinidad and Tobago, on August 10th 2022. Even though the embassy's address location was listed as, #19 St. Clair Avenue, Port of Spain, Trinidad, there were no embassy there except the British and Russian embassies. The phone number; 350-0444, listed, belonged to the British High Comission. Upon enquiries from both our own foreign affairs ministry and the British High Comission, we were told, the British High Comission would only assist in some consulate matters, ours would require us to go to the St. Vincent and the Grenadines website in order to get an address where the letter can be sent.

A decision was made to send it via TTPOST registered mail service and also via email correspondence to pmosvg@vincysurf.com. This we hope, would have a great impact as the same was done on the other islands. These actions is intended to send a clear message to Prime Minister Ralph Gonsalves; that this treachery will not be tolerated in the Caribbean. Let the truth be told, NO DICTATORSHIP RULE, NO TOTALITARIAN RULE, WILL BE ALLOWED IN THE REGION.
