*  *  *  Good Evening, We are at the end of June graduation month, a time when classes of diligent and hopeful people are filled with excitement to attend the traditional graduation ceremonies. These exciting ceremonies are often glamorous, as everyone makes quite an effort, like all of you did, to look special.
So the low point of the night is usually the dull speech by the guest speaker, which luckily, for tonight is yours truly. So let me introduce myself to you. I’m Jwala Rambarran, Governor of the Central Bank of Trinidad and Tobago, and if you believe the headlines, the person to blame for why you can’t even get 100 US dollars for your vacation.
