On the joyous occasion of Christmas, I extend my heartiest greetings and best wishes to all my respected  islanders and wish everyone a merry Christmas and prosperous New Year.

Let us recall on this auspicious day the eternal teachings of love and kindness, tolerance, peace, compassion, sacrifice and brotherhood of Jesus Christ who for centuries has been an inspiration to mankind.
