If you are following unfolding developments in the Caribbean, you know about the impact in Saint Kitts & Nevis, after MSR Media filed for a Judicial Review of the sales of illegally-discounted SKN Citizenship by Investment (CBI) passports, by the current administration of Prime Minister Terrance Drew, through a Chinese company, CARIBBEAN GALAXY, which resulted in the opening of a broad-based criminal investigation by the Director of Public Prosecutions, using outside professionals to conduct the inquiry. MSR Media provided to the Saint Kitts Court evidence of 185 illegally-sold citizenships.
Next, the former Prime Minister of Saint Lucia, Allen Chastanet, filed a civil action for Declaratory Relief there, to stop the illegal issuance of SLC passports, and the cancellation of those identity documents that were sold for less than the legally permitted minimum price. The defendants in that case are Investment Minister ERNEST HILAIRE and the CIU Board. Then, our sources advise us that evidence of corruption by senior Caribbean officials, caused by Chinese actions, resulting in fraud and money laundering, was presented at a meeting included Members of the United States Congress last week.
More recently, we now know that similar legal proceedings are being prepared for filing in court in Grenada, where there are also widespread instances of of illegally-discounted sales of CBI passports, in violation of both Grenadian law, and the Memorandum of Agreement, signed by all five East Caribbean CBI and CIP states in 2024, which mandates legally minimum pricing throughout the region. The Chinese company HENG SHENG is continuing to sell citizenships of Grenada for less than the legal price. The Prime Minister of Grenada, DICKON MITCHELL, is reportedly under pressure to stop this Chinese money laundering scheme involving citizenship sales.

These pending legal actions, which call attention to the illegal efforts of Chinese companies to establish a Sphere of Influence in the East Caribbean, by corrupting local leaders, and generating tens of thousands of Chinese Citizens with CBI passports, all with potential voting rights in future elections, seek to curtail China's growing power among the five independent CBI island states, and to restore their full national sovereignty, as well as to accomplish the return of missing CBI capital, which is in the billions of US Dollars, to the people of the region. We will be monitoring the progress of these legal actions, and updating our readers accordingly.
