That\u2019s the view of Mohammed Asaria, co-founder of Range Developments, a company that specialises in developing luxury hotel projects in the Caribbean.<br>\u201cIt was shocking to see at first hand the damage caused by the hurricane,\u201d said Mr Mohammed Asaria, Vice Chairman of Range Developments. \u201cI travelled there last week to see the situation for myself. I was incredibly impressed by the fortitude of the people and the efforts the Government are making to restore their country to the paradise it once was. It was heartening also to see children going back to their schools. The energy and drive amongst the country\u2019s leadership is clear and must be applauded.\u201d<br>Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit is personally leading the entire relief, restoring and rebuilding efforts. He announced recently that water supply has now been restored, as have telecommunications to most areas. In the capital Roseau there are people working on every street corner, cleaners wearing masks hosing down the streets, and water tankers spraying the roads. Vehicular access has been restored in all the island\u2019s roads. The extent of the damage and the cost of the rebuilding will be announced shortly by independent multi-lateral agencies, but is likely to be many multiples of the country\u2019s GDP.<br>\u201cWhat we\u2019re doing is to take an opportunity to build back better,\u201d Prime Minister Skerrit told reporters. \u201cAnd we\u2019re now putting the master plan in place. It entails sustainable livelihoods. In respect to energy, moving more into renewables \u2013 geothermal and solar.\u201d<br>Mr. Asaria also visited Range Developments\u2019 project, The Cabrits Resort Kempinski, on the north-east of the island near Portsmouth.<br>\u201cI am delighted to see how our team responded to the crisis,\u201d says Mr Asaria. \u201cIn the most challenging of circumstances they are already returning to work. Supplies are beginning to get through again as the roads, ports and airports are now re-open. Dominica will rebound from this stronger and in better shape to deal with anything similar that might occur in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>About Range Developments:<br>Range Developments is an international property developer focusing on high-end hotel resorts in the Caribbean that are well-designed, sustainable and desirable.
