Nominations sought for 2024 royal gongs
(CNS): The Governor’s Office is asking people in the Cayman Islands to submit nominations for the King’s 2024 New Year’s Honours list. People who are nominated should have made an exceptional contribution to the country and stand out for sustained, exceptional achievement and service in public life or serving Cayman.
Officials said they should be people who have made life better for others or who are outstanding in what they do and must still be actively involved in what they are being nominated for. This includes long-term volunteers and people who make a difference in their community or field of work or show moral courage.
Nominations should be made to the Governor’s Office by Friday, 5 May. The Cayman Honours Committee will then review them and decide which nominations they will submit to the UK.
Nomination can be sent
By email to GovernorsOffice.Cayman@fcdo.gov.uk

I nominate the Minimum Wage Committee formed last year for doing fun all to rectify the deplorable slave wages facing locals and permit holders alike.
You deserve the Top World Class Honorable Do Nothing award dudes.
Try so take us back now from 1950 and back to 1776. Shameful wages that can’t even support school leavers who are our Largest employed group.
Mann I love these list of nominees cause its a rogues gallery of useless and villainous men and harmless ladies in our society!
They give these rewards without checking to see if the person/persons actuary did anything to earn it. check last year list including the Brac.
One guy got it despite having a criminal conviction…nobody checks.
Sir Jeff Webb does have a nice ring to it. He’d fit right in with the other Knights of the Ironwood Table too.
All gong….and no dinner.
This always seems to attract some of the absolute worst of our society or some menaces of our high society with some very troubling past issues. Whom most people seem to have either forgotten their past misdeeds or have selective memory about their character and whom have only got involved with charitable clubs or actions when it has only benefited them and their very own families or those who sit on this honorary Committee! Unfortunately the crown seems to seeks favour on some occasions with some very dubious persons in society who’s loyalty and brutality become an admirable quality worth recognition!.If you know anyone whom the criteria I have listed above this fits, please feel free to nominate them for such awards and maybe just maybe they will stop doing harmful narcissistic shit for once in their lives to others in society!
So “watered-down”, in many cases just for marking time. Blah blah!
I say we nominate Jon Jon…. Im struggling to find a good reason why, but that didnt seem to stop others from getting one
Mr Dart should receive a knighthood for all that he has and is doing for Cayman! Get MBE for all the major executives at Dart also for getting great things done.
Hmm. For services to closing every place locals could go to on the beach?
I’m not convinced.
Surely you meant to say “for all he has and is doing for himself”. Tell us exactly what it is he has done for the Cayman Islands.
A full knighthood for the God of West Bay and the best and brightest of our society.
McKeeva Bush. Nobody better.
Only a knighthood? Is that all? Surely only a Dukedom is good enough for the Honourable Professor the Honourable Doctor (Honorary) McKeeva Bush, Most Honourable Member of Parliament, Beloved of the Lord, Righteous Among Men, Keeper of the Sacred Flame, Lord of West Bay and Hereditary Giver of the Fridge?
JTB you are forgetting BOSS HOGG!of these Cayman Islands
What about being the ladies man of Cayman?
FFS. Is there really anyone left who hasn’t got one yet? Must really be scraping the bottom of the barrel now.
Sorrowful attitude. So, you’re saying that you have been eligible for years, but still not given the tap?
Ever wonder why?
Try doing good around you without an expectation of reward.
I have done some good, without expectations. It’s not why I do good. I do good things for people because that is the way I was raised up. I will someday die with satisfaction and peace.
Not even remotely close to what I was saying but do carry on.
Hahahhahaahahha
ha ha u can’t even name one good deed
Let’s start with suggesting HM strips McKeever of his MBE! I’d vote for that.
And look for those who every day devote time and effort to help the less fortunate, as opposed to those who invite the Governor to black tie dinners.
