Appeal to the Red Cross Social Share
EDITOR: It was reported in the media (print) on Friday, February 12th, that the RED CROSS has been on a mission to reduce the spread of Dengue. That is indeed commendable and if the truth be told it reflects the sort of involvement from that well respected organization whose membership comprises men and women who have been traditionally held in high regard in our society.
The relevant piece which caught my attention in the NEWS newspaper of 12th February 2021, was captioned “LOCAL RED CROSS ON MISSION TO REDUCE SPREAD OF DENGUE” and it was contributed by Donald De Riggs. The information given was interesting and I felt urged to make contact with the office of the RED CROSS to get more information and offer some suggestions.

A long awaited Emergency Communications Network (ECN) designed to facilitate emergency communications will be launched here come January 2021.
The Digital Mobile Radio (DMR) tier 3 system will be the most modern radio communications system in the Eastern Caribbean, and its coverage is expected to provide service to over 95% of St. Vincent & the Grenadines.
On Wednesday, December 09, 2020, the National Emergency Management Organisation (NEMO) invited beneficiaries of the system, to familiarize them with the capabilities of the system, and to provide a historical back drop of the project which was conceptualized over five years ago.
