thank you for spreading this information about this less known union. I didn't know anything about this, it helped me see a bigger picture of the world and that smaller places are trying to change themselves more than some people know, hope them the best of luck thanks for the video

Yeah that may have some truth but there’s one island that will definitely give any of them a good run and that is Trinidad..with its oil and gas sector,manufacturing,banking it’s a very industrialized island that don’t really depend on tourism,I also believe they have some of the largest conglomerates in the region,the largest airline in the Caribbean and more…also Guyana is now an oil producing nation that will also give any Latin Caribbean country a run in years to come 🤷‍♂️

If Caricom was one country it would be the wealthiest per capita within one decade. The amount of development potential and ability to utilize resources in places like Guyana would allow an unmatched tremendous amount of gain in short time. If it was able to effectively work with nations like US, Canada and Brazil amongst others in Africa and Asia such as Angola , South Africa and India, we'd be looking at a great place to be citizens.

⁠ If you get your Caricom skills certificate do you actually have to have the skill or can you just get the certificate to stay in the country. Another thing for each Caribbean country, do you need the skills certificate or if you get one, you can travel and live in all the Caribbean countries with that one certificate.

The Dominican GDP is around 100 billions my friend.

DR doesn’t need Caricom. It’s their loss as we are the breadbasket of the Caribbean. No other island except for a free Cuba can compete. They were afraid of DR’s growth and successes which would give them domineering power. The Spanish speaking Caribbean are the true Juggernauts of the Caribbean.

It’s useless . It’s only for a selected few. We need to include all the Caribbean islands not just some. Caricom will only work if they add Dominican Republic. DR is the political and economic power house of the region.

Which other island besides Haiti or Cuba can say that? On top of that a Dominican led the war of independence for Cuba Maximo Gomez. The father of Puerto Rican Independence is of Dominican descent Emeterio Bentances De la Cruz. A Dominican was president of Mexico. The ancestors of Simon Bolivar came from the Dominican Republic.
