Message from Kenny D. Anthony, Leader of the Saint Lucia Labour Party (SLP) to Fidel Castro, Leader of the Cuban Revolution, on his 85th Birthday.June
Friday, July 01, 2011
Dear Fidel,
It is said that “age is just a number”. Yes it is, but not when the number is 85. That score, in the game of life, is not just another number. It’s a lifetime achievement of monumental proportions.
Eighty five is a score that most of us would like to achieve in our celebrated sport of cricket, but can only aim for, without certainty. Once achieved, however, it is an achievement worth noting and celebrating.
Your eighty five, Fidel, is indeed, a life worth celebrating.
You have been a lifelong inspiration to millions upon millions around the world for over five decades.
You, and the Revolution you led, inspired millions upon millions around and across the globe to aim for equality for all, freedom, justice and liberty from oppression.
You, and Cuba, for all of 50 years, have demonstrated to the world that it is possible to effect and sustain meaningful change.
You, and the Cuban Revolution, have demonstrated to us that it is possible to be self-determined and to proceed towards genuine and popular national goals, even under the most sustained pressure from powerful foes.
You, and the Revolution, have repeatedly demonstrated that Cuba’s solidarity with friends and people around the world can always be reliably counted on, irrespective of the circumstances.
You, Fidel, have inspired men and women everywhere, who have listened to your words and read your writings and found ways to connect what they heard and saw with their own realities.
Your international stature, my dear friend and comrade, is unequalled.
You, Fidel, have given to mankind, life’s example of just who and what a revolutionary is and can be, yesterday, today and tomorrow.
Yes, 85 is a great score in life’s long game.
I greet you today on achieving that score, on behalf of my wife and myself, the Party that I lead, and all the people of Saint Lucia,

Ambassador of Cuba in Saint Lucia holds exchange with the local press
Monday, May 23, 2011
SAINT LUCIA, May 16th, 2011: An exchange with the Local Press was organized at the Residence of the Ambassador of Cuba in Saint Lucia in order to celebrate World Press Freedom Day. The Cuban Ambassadress on the Island, Lydia González Navarro, in her speech, highlighted the origins of the date and the decisive participation of the Movement of Non-Aligned countries which contributed to the United Nations General Assembly declaring May 3rd as the date to pay tribute to the fight for a new order in information and communications. In her opening words, the Cuban Ambassadress underlined that since then and up to now, a new order in communications and information keeps being a statement for Cuba and the Non-Aligned Movement in general, detailing the unequal Access to information in today’s world, where transnationals dominate 90% of the information being circulated and distorted and that they manipulate the news coming from the third world. At the same time that she denounced the successive media campaigns against Cuba and radio and television aggressions which have been upheld for more than 50 years, she thanked the local press for allowing the Saint Lucian people to have Access to the true voice of Cuba. For the Cuban part, Cuban officials responsible for the different groups of collaborators on the island were present, which allowed them to deepen Cuba’s solidarity duties in Saint Lucia. (Cubaminrex
