MUSICIANS REFLECT ON EXPERIENCES IN TAIWAN; THANK GOVERNMENT FOR OPPORTUNITY TO ENGAGE IN CULTURAL EXCHANGE

Basseterre, St. Kitts, September 27, 2018 (SKNIS): The Governments of St. Kitts and Nevis and the Republic of China (Taiwan), came in for high praise when members of the Cayon Pantastic Steel Orchestra, lifted their voices in thanks and appreciation for the opportunity given to the 17-member team that journeyed to Taiwan to engage in a cultural exchange.

“Our trip to Taiwan was very much appreciated. It allowed us to experience something that I never thought I would in my lifetime. It really made me think about school choices and the future on a whole. I think that we should try to learn the Taiwanese (their language) and their songs as well so as to broaden our culture. By doing that, we will have different cultures added to our already cultural melting pot,” said Sarai Hutchinson. “I would like to thank Ambassador Jasmine Huggins for this opportunity, as well as the governments of both countries.”
