FINANCIALLY BACKED BY CARIBBEAN GALAXY, FORMER PRIME MINISTER TIMOTHY HARRIS COULD RETURN TO POWER IN SAINT KITTS AND NEVIS

When Team Unity collapsed, few observers expected the Saint Kitts and Nevis Labour Party to return

to power so decisively. Yet the fragmentation of the coalition opened the door for the Labour

government to take office in a surprise electoral outcome. Nearly four years later, the political landscape 

has shifted once again. Saint Kitts and Nevis is facing mounting economic hardship, with Citizenship by 

Investment (CBI) revenues reportedly declining sharply from approximately $600 million per year to just 

over $100 million. This contraction has created fiscal pressure, rising public dissatisfaction, and political 

vulnerability for the current administration.

A relentless political comeback; Former Prime Minister Timothy Harris has never stepped away from the

political battlefield. He has remained in continuous campaign mode, maintaining visibility across 

constituencies, and positioning himself as an experienced alternative amid growing frustration with 

the current government. For a segment of the electorate, Harris symbolizes a return to economic activity

and state revenue growth associated with the peak years of the CBI program, despite the controversies 

that accompanied that era.

 According to reliable intelligence sources familiar with regional political financing, Caribbean Galaxy and its 

principal, Ying Jin, are financially backing Timothy Harris’s upcoming electoral campaign, as is Les Khan,

who jointly manages Caribbean Galaxy.These sources indicate that financial support is being provided 

with the clear objective of facilitating Harris’s return to power. The agreement took place in Saint Lucia.

It is publicly known that Timothy Harris and Ying Jin are represented by the same legal counsel,

Peter Foster, based in Saint Lucia. This overlap, combined with the intelligence assessments, reinforces

perceptions within diplomatic and policy circles of an ongoing strategic alignment between the former

prime minister and the Chinese-linked CBI operator. Neither party has publicly confirmed these claims.

There is a Strategic Coalition with Nevis; In parallel, political sources report that Harris has reached an 

understanding with the Nevis-based Nevis Reformation Party (NRP) under NRP leader Janice Daniel-Hodge.

Such an arrangement would significantly alter the electoral balance, opening the path for a coalition government 

between Harris’s People’s Labour Party (PLP) and the NRP.If realized, this coalition would provide Harris with 

a credible parliamentary route back to office, particularly in a closely contested election environment.
