As we welcome the New Year, 2007, as Secretary-General, I am confident that the Caribbean Community has erected a solid foundation towards achieving its goals.
2006 was a year of undoubted progress with far-reaching implications for Caribbean integration. It began on an historic note with the coming into being of the CARICOM Single Market on 1 January, with the entry into force of the Revised Treaty of Chaguaramas. This was a very significant milestone in the journey on which the Founding Fathers of CARIFTA embarked over a generation ago.
