I have to say, when Mia Mottley speaks it's not hard to envision her as the Commander in Chief of the United States of The Caribbean
I thought the same things
It shows how intelligent you are urself .I was just about to comment similar words but didn't, an instead scrolled down to yr comment.well said.
Its not the United States of the Caribbean but rather The Caribbean Community (CARICOM). Btw, I am Belizean and I regard her as that too.
Lol, I support that, as a Jamaican man, I must say, I love her (stop it, I don't mean in a romantic way), she has a beautiful mind, and a wise brain. You go girl, you are an inspiration.
Deeper voice than many men
We need a Mia Mottley School for critical thinking. Thank you Madam PM!
"Scale...in at the Heart of OurTransformation."
So well said. Love this roadmap for moving forward as a Caribbean People. 'WE'...will continue to find out what we are capable of...every single moment!
Mia Mottley could be likened to a modern day Caribbean Moses. Once given the absolute opportunity, she will awaken the entire Caribbean region and lead to a progressive tomorrow.
This to me is the best comment ☺️ she is indeed a positive force.
Brilliant well spoken lady.
Agree! MIA MOTTLEY has the gut to get the job done , to DO what the other leaders only TALK about doing. I'm very proud of her. All the BLACK CARIBBEAN and AFRICANS leaders need to be on ONE PAGE together we CAN bring about change and loosens the chains of the colonisers and get them off our necks.THE TIME IS NOW.
S A Agreed.
This lady is a force a wisdom and courage. As A Jamaican I am so proud of my fellow Island girl.
I have been saying for a number of years now and to many people sometimes during many arguments that I see the Caribbean/West Indies as a collective/continent (I know it's not a land mass) and that I dont have time for divisive argument.
This is the first Caribbean leader i have heard speak of us in this way. Finally someone has the right idea and is addressing all of us
Man
I love this woman 🇹🇹
Kyron Akal, You are correct. We are not who the colonial regimes of Europe say we are, we are far greater in statue and value. We fed and made them wealthy to this day. Our motherland has done the same. We are not poor, but a gentle people taken advantage of by the "less fortunate" who plundered and oppressed to survive. Time to rise, change our narrative and show ourselves as the global example of what humanity truly mean. I am not think tank from the Caribbean for nought.
Stop saying and start doing. Stop arguing with ppl who cannot do... Action is the stepping stone to great things..
She is brilliant!!!! Just listening to her makes me more proud of my Caribbean heritage.
I'm so grateful for this speech. I've probably seen it a dozen times by now, and re-watch it every few weeks when I need a restoration and reminder of why what we do is important. We must stay on target!
Mia is the ONLY Caribbean PM I make time to Listen to 💙
I've followed this Nubian Emperors since she became Prime Minister of Bimshire. Right now, she's one of three world Leaders that holds my attention. She's certainly a Caribbean LEADER , an inspirator & Motivator. AS A Jamaican, I'm proud of her. Ur Mother of my Universe & Fountain Of LIFE.....ASE'....
My dear sister I couldnt agree more.
.. i lived in Barbados for 27 years, met all the Prime Ministers until 2007, when I left for another destination. I met Mia in the early 80's when I was close to PM Tom Adams. It was known at that time that Mia, in the future, would become PM of Barbados. The Island is a very special Caribbean Island, has a really nice population and I think about it very often. I was known in Barbados as: The Flying Dutchman. Love You BARBADOS ...
Every word so uplifting and divinely sound.❤
I love this woman... A true Caribbean leader. If the Caribbean was one and needed a leader I would choose her... I'm not from Barbados but listen to her intelligence and critical thinking any opportunity I get.
I show everyone at work this lady in my small US town. She is the leader for all of us.
Wow, i feel this is 15 minutes of pure wisdom
I'm not even from the Caribbean and her words here inspire me. What a powerhouse thought-leader for these times and a captivating speaker.
After listening to that, I feel like applying for a Barbados passport! Big up, Ms Mottley!
I compliment you Minister Mia Mottley. Knowing oneself and learning about the colonial forced migration and enslavement. We need to forge forward with our natural abilities. We need to rise and invent as never before. Reparation for our Ancestors and Descendants. We have to become aligned with the Global communities. We do have global appeal.
Brilliant! Really inspiring words. We in the Caribbean are fortunate to have some great leaders at this time.
Absolutely brilliant Madame Prime Minister.
I just love the way Ms Mottley can get to the point and uphold, encourage, influence and also demand that we all aspire to achieve our own and collective potential. This was such an inspiring statement. I have to share!!! So beautifully said! What a visionary!
This is the best fifteen minutes of clear and concise vision, history and leadership. Mia Mottley is a brilliant, methodical and amazing person who exhibits what real leadership looks like. When you merge institutional, cultural education and truth then this is what you get. I walked away moved by Mia Mottley.
From Brooklyn NY. I'm 68 yrs old Jamaican. She captures my attention in every speech like the late Prime Minister Michael Manley..Even if you disagree you listen....
God bless 💯🙏
What a stateswoman! I enjoyed every minute of this. Thank you, Mia Mottley.
This is what the Caribbean needs, thinkers like Mrs. Mottley to develop our region. If she is given the support and opportunity to lead our region there'll be no stopping her in making a change for the better... Excellent speech 👌
Empowering words... so needed. Nothing new, but rather, a precious remembrance of our collective Caribbean value and potential.
Grateful I was able to listen to this... and recall who WE are as a people.
Without a doubt Mia is the best leader in the Caribbean. I could listen to her all day.
I love Mia Mottley 🇻🇨
Pm mottley well said Caribbean leaders need to listen and understand stop trying to be King in your region ,division gets us no where
I love her! When she speaks you can't help but listen and be motivated. Female future for the Caribbean!
Thank you pm .you just insert a different level of thinking. Tune in all the way 🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸
I love you PM Mia, you're my role model and a woman of honour. I feel so much regional pride and joy everytime I see you! From a 🇹🇹
When she speaks, i listen!
I love this lady. Her contributions will never be completly understood nor will it be forgotten. Her body of work offers a sense of tangible hope for our country and entire region. Much love and respect for you and your country from the Bahamas.
I love how she pushes for regional unity #OneCaribbean
True barbados is a free and stabilized place. We are not a rich country but look at places that have such riots going on among them. Barbados is a nice place to be and that's because mia is dragging us into a good mindset.
Mia Mottley has her finger on the pulse! TT leaders need to take a seat and listen. The time is ripe for disruption AND subversion. Pivot!
All Caribbean leaders... If our countries join forces and spearheaded by this woman, we would be a powerhouse...
Religious idealism is also a contributing factor to that self limiting reality.
Preach, no pun intended
My thoughts exactly. That's the road to travel to free our minds.
From the country with the most churches per square mile in the world (Jamaica), you are correct. The irony is we are using the same religion that was used to subdue us during the colonial era. So we are continuing the legacy of supression.
They’ve all forgotten this and will pay the price
Key Contributing Factor.
Praise God for such a brilliant lady
I'm proud to say I'm Bajan. I can't wait to see her develop Barbados, welcome to the baptism. Covid is a fantastic opportunity to show the power of the islands - financial gifts are welcomed but stay away IMF.
I applaud you Madame Prime Mister , I Hope the rest of the leaders in the region are taking note and take action together to make these dreams for once a reality.. Thank you
Excellent words. Brilliant.
Hopefully our present and future leaders will be inspired and take us to where we deserve to be!
Big up Caribbean people!!
MIA MY SISTER YOU ARE A LEADER. YOU ARE SMALL BUT BIG IN YOUR VISION AND THOUGHTS. IN THIS CENTURY IT IS TAKING WOMEN TO LEAD US AHEAD. THIS IS AWESOME! YOU ARE AWESOME! ❤❤❤💯%
Ooooo...she speaks my language...love this lady...let’s be transformational leaders 🇰🇳🇰🇳🇰🇳
I approve this message
Excellent speech...wish people in the Caribbean would follow these ideas, become aware of the importance of confidence to overcome our difficulties, so the idea that in skill is the heart of transformation is paramount. I also believe in C.R.L. James.
Loving this one thanks for sharing very information blessed love to all knowledge is power hopefully everyone pays attention keep up the good work 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
This is what I call an intelligent leader. Good woman , our girl Mia.
Mia is such a global mama bear for us black people.
There is no greater force than an idea whose time has come. Thank you Prime Minister Mottley for encouraging us to seize the moment and to be true to ourselves in order to take control of our development.
Simply brilliant. I have just listen to a true visionary.
I’m so proud of you Ms Mottley!!! Such an inspiration.
🖤🇧🇧
Love from St Lucia Ms. Mottley🇱🇨
Omg...slow clap...this was so frigging epic! I feel activated.
What can 'We' become?...We can become BETTER!
Thanks for Your Powerful Message of Vision and Hope.
Now: HOW CAN WE WORK TOGETHER!
I salute you mame. Your speech incorporates all that is needed for the Caribbean region to move forward into the future. You touched on back then, the now and the future. I salute you
She is amazing!!! Finally, a statesman. Love you.
At last , a leader with some substance Errol Barrow must be smiling wherever he is!
Mia Mottley raises the bar for us Caribbean Moon Shots, Drive the mindset to pivot
Words of wisdom shared here.
She is born for such a time as this. A true revolutionary
On my first flight back home from the US after my first semester I ended up on a BWIA local.
Flew from Mia to Antigua Grenada Barbados? and then Piarco. Growing up we did not have the luxury of vacationing in the Caribbean other than a trip to see my uncle in St Vincent who had moved there in the 60s.
It was eye opening to me how small our individual territories were and could feel the insecurity to which the PM refers - we were only meant to be big farms, a small cog in a big wheel - not countries.
It is for the last 40 years I have wondered what would become of us.
We have no land - save Guyana
We have no large populations and markets - save Haiti Cuba
We have few natural resources - save Trinidad (rapidly depleting in significance) {ah know everybody have oil now}
We do have talents in every imaginable discipline. The untapped resources the youth, many of whom are being left out to be devoured by crime and substance abuse.
Sun Sea clean water and air.
Our human resource is our future.
Good looking ppl
Soca
Reggae
Zouk
Chutney
Doubles
Bake and shark
(Yeah a Trini)
The PM could not be more correct .
It will take a metamorphosis in our outlook and confidence to be able to manifest that vision of the future. We have always had the raw materials .
We should be leaders in developing and deploying
Green tech
Renewables
Self driving autos
Personalized AI in healthcare (reducing cost and improving outcomes )
Advanced agriculture aquaculture
Inclusiveness - bringing all of our people to the table
We must feed ourselves sustainably .
Our universities and institutions must also transform and no longer strive to be Howard Harvard or Oxford.
They must be attentive to using knowledge and tech to solve our problems
Crime
Drugs
Unemployment
Energy
Regional Transportation
Stop the brain drain
Powerful message Madam PM thank you!
Extremely cultural indeed, well said madam prime minister..
The spokes person for the entire Caribbean.
Thanks much for these profound words . Very Enlightening!!
Awesome orator and critical forward thinker. Many things to ponder. "Cultural Confidence ".
Mia Mottley. The greatest Caribbean Prime Minister I have ever heard vocalize the Caribbean's potential.
Such inspiring leadership. Moonshot.
This is just wonderful! What a leader! 🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾 here & want ALL Caribbean countries to win!
This is quite brilliant. Will our other leaders listen? TT and the greater Caribbean, time to "pivot". This is our time. Congratulations Madame PM
Madam Prime Minister ,We are ready to take these excellent words and put them into action. We have the project to do it.
Brilliantly spoken, as always👏🏾
Dear Jamaica...take heed. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Wish we would this should be play in every learning institutions
@@paulbailey5186 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
I Applaud you Empress. Great Leadership .Coming from 758 much love and respect.
Man... I love this woman 🇹🇹❤
As usual l am, like in the past impressed by our Barbadian leader. She is full of grace, professionalism, commitment to country, people and Caribbean zone. Mam! You are a true proffessional. The Caribbean love's you. You truly represent. Keep up the good work, fear no one and continue being you. This is what make's you great. Thank you for your representation towards the entire Caribbean people. Nice seeing you so vigourously recoverref from your surgery. May God continue to bless you. Love from Trinidad.
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I would love to see our region step on the grand scale in the global economy without losing our souls...
Madame Mottley speaks of the opportunity available with the use of technology, but let us show the world how we can be frontline competitors without allowing technology to steal basic health from under us! May we be able to incorporate the future while remembering the basics of good health- good fresh food, keeping an active lifestyle, outdoor/sun exposure, restful sleep and of course a LOT of social interaction! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Mia is a very good speaker
Minds like hers are why the Bim passport is the most powerful in the Caribbean. The world recognizes their strides!
Wow she makes me proud to be a Trinidadian and by extension from the Caribbean.
Criticism unmerited in the past. Vindicated by the present. Thank you PM Mottley.
It’s a pity the rest of the Caribbean leaders don’t share her views even with the Uniqueness of each country
We have much to offer and explore. Living outside of the Caribbean, my contributions have been mammoth in my employ. And I haven't look at the value, but the natural abilities through my career and now sitting on board in retirement.
This is what I've been talking abput!!.when things go wrong in a crisis #pivot
God bless your heart
Grateful to her for such insights.
Errol Barrow revisited...a bold and necessary vision...thank you Sister
Excellent presentation...
We need more cross cultural arts and entertainment exchange. With all the digital innovation, the biggest industry and continually producing industries globally are arts, entertainment, and gaming/content production. This is a truth about how much the world has changed and the monetization of things. It would push towards a form of things that could be all homegrown and infrastructure that is globally available with new markets growing everyday.
I applaud you, brilliant!
Well said PM Motley, you continue to highlight our challenges as well as solutions, the hard truths of our realities as Caribbean people must be confronted head on. Moonshots and innovation is looked down on and faces continuous systemic challenges . The Pivot and the reset is most critical for Caribbean countries at this time, hardly spoken off or supported. Thanks for using your platform to continue to show pathways and points of lights.
Well said
Minshall. Force❤
Markey
..emancipate yoyrsekf indeed❤
Great Speech
Mia Mottley is truly forward thinking. She is a prime minister with a strong vision about prospering her country via challenging people's mindset and taking action. She truly understands that you change a situation, by changing the mindset first. We need that in Jamaica. She would do well at the top of CARICOM.
This Caribbean single Market and economy must be strengthen to give the Caribbean small Island states more economic power in the world.
Sulte madam. Because I was very happy u speech. Pl help for me ...i visiting your country.
Very well spoken and composed. Very true. Lack of community in our own diversity causes a lot of added self-contempt also.
Very thought provoking and forward-thinking.
👏🏽Auntie Mia, Love Yuh!
This is so wonderful & brilliant.
Eloquent and on point!
