My Fellow Mausicans,

Many of us will remember the significant role that Dr. Eric Williams, the father of our nation, played in our lives. Under his leadership the country emerged from years of colonial rule into a world full of opportunities for Trinbagonians and many of our neighboring islands.

It was during that era that the PNM had its brightest moments. Education was a core value of the PNM Government.

In 1963, Mausica Teachers College was born. In 1966, I received a scholarship to attend our beloved Mausica. What a blessing that was. Mausica was a peak experience in my life. Just imagine, I was one of fifty-five youngmen selected that year.

Therefore,  this month as we celebrate the 100th anniversary of Dr Eric Eustace Williams' birth, I offer sincere thanks to our visionary father. May we continue to teach our students about his many achievements and may his name remain ethched in our memory.

Thank you, Dr. Williams.
