Holness heads to Chile in search of bilateral cooperation

PRIME Minister Andrew Holness left Jamaica yesterday for Chile, where he is scheduled to have a series of bilateral engagements with the Government.

The prime minister will be on a one-day official working visit to the South American nation. A release from Jamaica House yesterday said that he will meet with Chilean President Michelle Bachelet on enhancing bilateral cooperation between the two countries.

He will also explore cooperation in tourism and business development, as he is slated to have dialogue with senior managers and businessmen of the tourism and hotel industry at the National Chamber of Commerce, Services and Tourism of Chile.

He is accompanied on the visit by Minister of Foreign Affairs and Foreign Trade, Senator Kamina Johnson Smith, Jamaica’s Ambassador to Chile Alison Stone Roofe, and deputy chairman of the Economic Growth Council Ambassador Nigel Clarke.

The prime minister will return to the island on Thursday. While he is away, Dr Horace Chang, minister without portfolio in the Ministry of Economic Growth and Job Creation, will be in charge of the Government.
