  • The small archipelago nation of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, located in the southern Caribbean, had previously suffered from a lack of connectivity, but a new international airport opens up potential for increased tourism and as well as investment in sectors such as agriculture and services. fDi Magazine editor-in-chief Courtney Fingar takes a tour.

    Love the video. Thanks for doing an episode on this beautiful island. I'm still yet to visit, but one day I will. My parents are Jamaican, but we're all one big Caribbean family, no matter what island you are from. I 💘 the Caribbean.

    terrific piece. would like to see another piece on the direct benefits to locals, who are not capital investors or have access to credit capital, with direct investment to deepen the local consumer market and build a sustainable inward focused sector. sustainable economic development must become a priority in a disaster backdrop.

    I am proud to tell the world that I am from the beautiful island of St Vincent and the Grenadines, I think our airport should be named St VINCENT and the GRENADINES INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT, I was asked why argyle is only a tiny area in ST VINCENT a lot of people never heard of ARGYLE, think about it.congratulations Mr Primeminster great job Martin Marks daughter.

      @isabellbelmar753 6 лет назад +5

      I'm inclined to agree with the latest comment from katty, the Liat staff has always been a problem,but since the opening of the Airport they're worse no manners, no diplomacy, the majority of the staff needs to be updated in how to deal with the public.

      Let me note beside the disrespect and treat I received from the LIAT staff I had a time in St.Vincent. I don't see stating the fact is putting down your country. How about making those who in charge aware to make changes to improve.
