Lovell says last-place regional ranking of CIP should spur the Browne Administration to study competitors and get it right

9

The Gaston Browne Administration appears to be interested only in selling the country’s passports, says Harold Lovell, the United Progressive Party’s Political Leader.

His comment follows last week’s publication of the Citizenship by Investment Index ranking, on which Antigua and Barbuda was ranked last among the Caribbean nations offering the programme and fifth among the 13 countries worldwide.

Lovell says that being in last place regionally should prompt the Administration to study what our competitors are doing, so that Antigua and Barbuda’s programme can stand out.

Further, while other countries have put their CIP funds to good use for the development of their country and people, Lovell says, the Browne Administration has done nothing meaningful with our earnings.

The UPP Political leader says this Administration’s plans for the CIP are only to sell passports and squander the money.

Meanwhile, Lovell recalls that, under the CIP’s National Development Fund option, the UPP had established a board that was responsible for development projects, particularly for young entrepreneurs and small businesses.

Speaking to the Real Estate option under a UPP Administration, he says the country would have seen the development of a sector that could be utilized to generate employment for citizens and residents.- REAL NEWS

    • Tessa’s daughter grandmother would have been busy ensuring she has some fried fish, bun and bread from brownies and sugar cake to take back to University in America this weekend if she had the chance to live. Instead her embryonic life was snuffed out. Grandama will never be able to say at what would have been her graduation next year “THATS MY GRAND DAUGHTER”. Shame on the UPP for having a murderer on their ticket.

    • WHEN the UPP created the CIP the ABLP was against it. Do you remember?
      ” My passport not for sale”. That was Max Hurst walking up and down the pavement.
      ” Over my dead body” , that Molwyn Joseph in Parliament.

      AA when the ABLP got power, it was the CIP that gave this government 2 billion dollars.

      As your friend Hmmmm who is smh, who is well well well and Sherfield and Barthley would say
      opposition is a batter’s paradise!

  2. The 🐍 🐍 with the 26 ACRES of FARMing FOOL land and full up a OLD STOVE, OLD FRIDGE, RUBBISH AND SMELLY PAMPERS a look money from poor people. He having multiple GOATWATER PARTIES with an ADMISSION FEE + “FOOD AND DRINKS ON SALE”

    Imagine he want people to PAY HIM. He wants to be their representative so why he nah learn to GIVE???

    He TAKING from the people instead of GIVING to them. He a wan real slithering 🐍 🐍 fu chew.

  3. The whole problem with Antigua’s CIP (and could be easily solved in a heartbeat), is by currently using a third-party for vetting creates a security problem when the ABLP outsources like this.

    Is it any wonder why other countries – especially in the European Union – are querying the validity of CIP in its current form of format.

  4. Um, actually what I’m seeing places Antigua and Barbuda THIRD on the index.

    I’m on this site trying to learn more about Antigua as my wife and I are thinking about becoming Antiguan citizens, to escape the horrid, soul penetrating stench of the ‘states.

  5. Antigua is last based on what? I didn’t see anything about freedom, lifestyle, number of countries whom honour Antiguan passports…

    I call progressive bullsh..t on this.
