6p.m. Sunday Oct. 3, 2010 – Newly appointed Minister of Finance Chris Sinckler takes up his new job tomorrow morning, optimistic that Barbados can get through these challenging economic times.
“It is going to take more than economic planning to get Barbados out of the recession but Barbadians should be able to pull through”, he says.
Sinckler was named the new Finance Minister and Economic Affairs in a Cabinet reshuffle announced last Thursday by Prime Minister David Thompson in an address to the nation.
Sinckler’s comments came earlier today after attending a church service at the New Dimensions Ministries, in Barbarees Hill, St Michael.
