Following the election, ROC (Taiwan) Ambassador to Saint Vincent and the Grenadines Fiona Huei-chun Fan promptly conveyed sincere congratulations on behalf of the government and people of Taiwan to Prime Minister Friday and the newly elected members of parliament.
The electoral process was peaceful and smooth. The people of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines completed voting through an open, transparent, and peaceful democratic mechanism, demonstrating their staunch belief in safeguarding democracy as well as their mature and stable political culture.
