Basseterre, St. Kitts, December 18, 2020 (PIPUD): A brief but meaningful ceremony on Thursday, 17th December, brought staff from across the various departments in the Ministry of Public Infrastructure, Post and Urban Development to the Ministry’s parking lot in Needsmust for the Ministry’s first ever Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony.
All eyes were on the tree as Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Public Infrastructure, Post and Urban Development, Hon. Shawn K. Richards and Permanent Secretary Daryll Lloyd flipped the switch to light the tree. Beyond the novelty of the event to the Ministry, the lights on the 8-foot spruce are solar-powered.
