    The West Indies Cricket Board of Control discusses among other issues, the future of Brian Lara with the West Indies team. In Haiti, the country heads into Presidential elections with Rene Preval, candidate for President Aristide's Lavalas party, regarded as a favourite to win. American journalist Allan Nairn states that he has uncovered new evidence which further implicates the CIA in supporting the paramilitary gang FRAPH in Haiti. Police are investigating fires at two Cable and Wireless installations in St. Lucia which affected many cable subscribers and ran into millions of dollars in damages. In Antigua, there is a leadership crisis in the two months old People's Democratic Movement. Some Antiguans express skepticism about the new party and Mr. Hugh Marshall comments on the power struggle within the ranks. Jamaican Ambassador Richard Bernal urges small developing countries to vigorously pursue the process of preparation for participation in the Free Trade of the Americas (FTAA). In cricket, the West Indies Cricket Board has taken a decision that its headquarters will be moved from Barbados to Antigua.
