H.L. Stoutt’s vision enabled territory to fight COVID-19 – Premier Fahie
Premier Fahie’s remarks were made while delivering an address at the service to commemorate the anniversary of the birth of Mr Stoutt on Monday, March 1, 2021, at the Cappoon's Bay Recreation Ground on Tortola.
Presently there are no active cases of the virus in the [British] Virgin Islands.
“H. L Stoutt understood that the most powerful part of your body is your mind. So I get excited during these time because he also built an economy. You see when you can build people, and they can feed their family and get good jobs? You build an economy. He built an economy so much that our people later on were so equipped that we were able to band together and fight COVID-19 to the point where we have zero confirmed cases in the BVI,” he remarked.
“It didn’t just start now; it started because he educated his people to the point where he fulfilled his God-given mission, so he strengthened the economy by building the people,” the Premier added.
HLS saved lives
Premier Fahie said the late leader played his part in saving lives.
“That’s why I get excited during this event every year because God uses the time to remind us that once he gives you the vision, then he will give you the provision, but he cannot give you the provision if you do not move forward with the vision. God made it possible through HL Stoutt, and HL Stoutt made it possible by being the conduit to allow God to use him to better and empower his people,” he reasoned.
“So really and truly he saved lives because there were a lot of persons who could not afford to leave the BVI to even get an associate, but HLSCC made it possible,” the Premier added.
The event was held under the theme: Defining the vision: ‘Empowering my people.’

anyone like him regardless of where they from........if you are asking island people not to allow Myron to get in you shouldn't be asking them to vote for any local person because the voters should be categorized just like Myron, ISLAND PEOPLE,,,,, you dumbo. Shoving them with one hand and pulling them with the other. Just using them for your own gratification. Sick of you all with your discrimination, that is why England coming for you, like it or not.
