Roopchand“In that process,Cheap NFL Jerseys China, education was proving to be the main factor in social and economic mobility.

This entity took over the offices of the Development Secretariat, Ministry of Economic Development, at Camp Street. Among those Greenidge inherited in the process was one, Clyde Raymond Roopchand.Greenidge said that Roopchand distinguished himself early at that time even among high flyers and had many achievements to his name.

Both the late Presidents Burnham and Desmond Hoyte who knew him personally would often call for and on him.In spite of all of that he remained a very modest and unassuming man. He was eventually awarded the Cacique’s Crown of Honour (CCH) in 2011which he merited by virtue of his office of CPO not to mention his contribution to planning.”The Foreign Affairs Minister asserted that Roopchand who passed away last week in New York, USA will be missed by all and extended sincere condolences to his immediate his wife Latchmin and children; Sharon, Karen and Kevin.The Member of Parliament concluded, “You may rest assured that the wider community appreciated Clyde’s contribution to the development of our country. We will forever remember him and his modesty, his humanity, humility and his decency.”
