said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>In his address, Pringle committed to strengthening the healthcare system, promising top-tier services that would eliminate the need for citizens to seek basic care abroad. He said the UPP would draw on both local expertise and international partnerships to deliver meaningful improvements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Turning to education, Pringle said the system must be revamped to better prepare young people for the modern workforce, while also creating opportunities for adult learning and skills training. He added that education would serve as the foundation for national progress.<\/p><div id=\"antig-1135946312\" class=\"antig-content_2 antig-entity-placement\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.courts.com\/antigua\/\" aria-label=\"IMG_0783\"><img src=\"https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:500\/h:500\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/IMG_0783.png\" alt=\"\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:500\/h:500\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/IMG_0783.png 500w, https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:300\/h:300\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/IMG_0783.png 300w, https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:150\/h:150\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/IMG_0783.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\"   \/><\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The opposition leader also spoke of the need to reform the tourism industry to create more inclusive economic opportunities.
