UN General Assembly
2016

Finally, we reiterate our support for the President and his presidency. We also take this opportunity to pay tribute to the Secretary-General for his tireless work on behalf of all countries and peoples, and more especially for his sensitivity to the interests of small island developing States like my own, for which he has promoted specific initiatives. His presence here will surely be missed. We hope that his successor will carry forward his work on behalf of small island developing States. We wish him well in his future endeavours.
