Antigua and Barbuda Prime Minister Gaston Browne visited Duba on Friday as part of a wider investment promotion tour.

Before arriving in the United Arab Emirates, the Prime Minister visited an International Residency Summit at the Jumeirah Carlton in London, while also holding a town hall meeting with Antigua and Barbuda nationals living in the UK.

Following his trip to Dubai, Browne will visit Singapore, where he will be a speaker at an international investment conference, also holding bilateral discussions with CEOs and with the Prime Minister of Malta, the government said in a statement.

Singapore is the stated model for Browne’s development plan for Antigua, as elaborated following his election.

The government said Browne’s trip was privately funded.

For more on Browne’s ideas for the country, see this CJ article.
