Speaking on Saturday, October 27th, 2018 at the Gala Dinner and Awards Ceremony commemorating 60 years of the St. Kitts-Nevis Customs and Excise Department, Prime Minister Dr. the Honourable Timothy Harris said, “Tonight, as our thoughts are focused on saluting excellence and on recognizing the contributions of Retired Comptrollers of Customs who helped to lead the way over these many decades, I think of how proud we should all be that the intellectual father of the US Customs Service was none other than Nevis’ very own Alexander Hamilton. Hamilton immigrated to America in October 1772 and became one of its founding fathers and its first Treasury Secretary.”
