Leaders of the Caribbean Community gathered Thursday at the Chaguaramas Convention Centre to salute the vision of the four founding fathers of the Community when leaders of Guyana, Jamaica, Barbados and Guyana signed the treaty establishing CARICOM.

He said that even though much has changed and there has been some progress, the need for integration is greater now.
