As we bid farewell to the year behind us and welcome the promise of a new one, we stand at a crossroads of reflection and ambition.
This is a moment to honour our journey, acknowledge our challenges, and embrace the opportunities ahead— it is a Time for Progress.
As we enter the New Year, the People’s Progressive Movement is energised by the opportunity for renewal. As our movement evolves, we will rise to the occasion with a team that balances experience with fresh perspectives and innovative thinking — a team fully dedicated to doing what’s right for our country.
For us, progress is more than a word; it is a commitment to building a better tomorrow for every Caymanian. Progress is about action — not empty promises. It is about delivering real results, tackling our challenges head-on, and creating a future where every Caymanian can thrive.
Progress is not just an ideal; it is the ongoing effort to ensure that every family benefits from economic growth, every community feels safe, and every generation inherits a stronger Cayman Islands.
Reflecting on the past year, we cannot ignore the mounting challenges that weigh heavily on our nation. Rising living costs continue to squeeze hardworking families while growing public debt threatens the financial stability of future generations. Decisive action has been lacking, and political instability has left too many Caymanians feeling uncertain about what lies ahead.
These issues underscore the urgent need to return to stable, accountable governance. Critical matters, such as affordable housing, affordable healthcare access, and addressing crime, have been met with delays, indecision, and ineffective solutions for too long. Caymanians deserve better. The Cayman Islands need better. And 2025 is our Time for Progress.
Looking ahead, we are presented with a choice.
A choice between moving forward with purpose or continuing down a path of stagnation and instability. Progress demands bold leadership, a clear vision, and the will to take action.
It demands a government that prioritises you — your families, your communities, and your future.
2025 is your chance to shape this future. Cayman’s democracy is only as strong as the people who stand up for it. Please register to vote by January 15th, and let your voice be heard on election day on April 30th. Our stability depends on you. Our future depends on you.
In April, Caymanians can, and I believe they will, elect a strong, stable, and united PPM team for government once again.
On May 1st, we will be ready to hit the ground running with a clear programme for government. A programme that responds to the issues that Caymanians have told us are most important to them.
A programme to reverse the decline in living standards we have endured over the last four years and to make housing and healthcare more affordable for Caymaian families.
A programme to tackle the out-of-control immigration we have seen since the end of the pandemic, a programme to reduce crime and the fear of crime, and a programme to protect our precious natural environment and to start the long process of protecting our Islands from the impacts of climate change.
We stand ready to lead the transformation of the Cayman Islands into a new era of innovation and growth - an evolution we term Cayman 4.0.
We will ensure that growth is not just a headline but a reality for every family, improving living standards and creating opportunities for all Caymanians to flourish.
We will balance economic progress and environmental protection, respecting our islands’ natural beauty and resources.
We will create Cayman-focused immigration policies that put Caymanians at the centre while meeting the needs of a dynamic economy.
We will modernise our approach to crime prevention, focusing on forward-thinking strategies that enhance community safety and build trust in law enforcement.
This is more than a vision; it is a commitment to creating a stronger, more united Cayman — one where progress is intentional, inclusive, and sustainable. It is not just a political agenda; it is a roadmap for a better Cayman — a Cayman that works for everyone.
2025 is not just a new year; it is a turning point. Together, we can build a Cayman Islands that is united, resilient, and ready for the challenges of tomorrow. Together, we can create a future we can all be proud of.
On behalf of the People’s Progressive Movement, I wish you and your families a prosperous New Year. Let 2025 be a new chapter, the year we turn hope into action. Let 2025 be our Time for Progress.
Happy New Year. May God bless you and your family and continue to guide and bless our beloved Cayman Islands.
