Prime Minister Gaston Browne says his administration plans to move into what he describes as a \u201crenaissance\u201d phase of national development if it secures another term in office.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Speaking during an ABS interview, Browne said the country has already advanced through what he previously called the \u201cnext level\u201d of development and is now poised for a new stage of growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur next term in office, should we get one, and it looks very probable, we\u2019re now moving from next level to renaissance,\u201d Browne said.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

He argued that the government has built out much of the country\u2019s socioeconomic infrastructure and is now focused on completing remaining gaps and expanding high-end developments.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIn the next, I\u2019d say, three to five years maximum, you will see it literally mushroom,\u201d he said, referring to projected growth in luxury properties, restaurants and supporting infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Browne linked the vision to continued economic stability and infrastructure improvements, saying momentum must be maintained to sustain progress.<\/p>

While not formally launching a campaign, the prime minister used the interview to outline what he described as the next phase of Antigua and Barbuda\u2019s transformation.<\/p>\n
