    The Report opens with a commentary on the ranking of Caribbean as a top tourist destination. But things are not perfect in paradise as the first report highlights the New Year strike in Barbados by hotel workers. The report also looks at the reasons the Caribbean is seen as a top tourist destination. Another report looks at the high levels of crime in Jamaica. Following this there is a segment on the resignation of politician Senator Brian Kuei Tung in Trinidad and Tobago. After this report, there is news of the economic problems facing Cuba and the attempts by the government to curb crime in Puerto Rico by seizing control of housing projects. The programme ends with news of the murder of a Guyanese Roman Catholic priest in Jamaica.
