PRIME Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar trotted out some big figures yesterday as she sought to show the Seventh Summit of the Americas this country might be old in the energy game, but will not soon lose its vigour as a producer and exporter of oil and gas.
Persad-Bissessar was the first speaker at the summit, addressing the Chief Executive Officers’ Conference at the Riu Plaza Hotel in Panama, with a speech headed “Energy: Fuelling America’s Growth”, according to a statement from the Office of the Prime Minister.
