WORTH BEING AWARE

The Government of Saint Lucia has been made ware of the recent circulation of emails which attempt to project a negative image of our nation. Government is extremely concerned at this development. As a result the Government of Saint Lucia wishes to bring to the attention of the public what appears to be a campaign of malicious emails which seems calculated to engineer despair and to tarnish the name of our beloved nation. Government views this development as an onslaught and declaration of aggression against our national interest.



In the past weeks there has been an apparent trend of disturbing emails which have bordered on threats to national security and treason. It is clear that these emails have been propelled by an agenda of deliberate and calculated mischief. Government questions the motives of those who are behind this recent campaign. Such motives can only be driven by narrow and self-serving interest and certainly not that of the collective goodwill of Saint Lucians.



One of the more recent emails circulated had attached gruesome and gory photos of the decapitated and dismembered body of a young woman with the claim that this heinous crime was committed in Saint Lucia. However when one “google’s” the relevant information, including the name of the victim, it is discovered that this crime was in fact perpetuated in a neighboring Caribbean Country on December 12th, 2006.



All Saint Lucian nationals living at home and in the Diaspora are urged to disregard such email, which are only calculated to instigate an atmosphere of instability within our nation. Government would like to further advise that persons should desist from forwarding such emails as forwarding such emails would only help to assist those who have set about to bring injury to our nation.



Government condemns in the strongest manner what amounts to an act of terrorism against our nation. Perpetuators of such acts are reminded that the circulation of such emails is in fact an offence under Sections: 314, 315 and 361 of the Criminal Code. Government assures Saint Lucians of its commitment and determination to tackle head-on the scourge of crime and to ensure that peace and tranquility becomes the norm.

It is because Saint Lucia has been the buz for a while now and naturally you'll find some evil ones out there, even envious ones.

This is our moment, so let us shine just like the torch at the top of our coat of arms. A torch to light our path and darkness cannot comprehend this light so it will surely flee and hide it's face.

How can you light a candle and put it under a bushel?
