| dc.description.abstract | The program reports on the response by the Haitian people to a call by the Opposition party for a national strike to prevent President Prosper Avril from returning to Haiti. The majority of Haitians did not answer the strike call. Secondly, a new Caribbean export agency, the Eastern Caribbean States Export Development Agency (ESCEDA) calls for free trade in the Caribbean in order to increase the effectiveness of the organization. Following the Financial News, the focus is on the recently concluded COMECON meeting in Bulgaria which was attended by Cuba’s Vice President, Carlos Rafael Rodrigues. Cuba’s stance against the proposed reforms at the meeting was addressed. Finally, the sporting segment centres on the first anniversary of the death of St. Kitts/Nevis cricketer Will Flack who died at the wicket in Gambia one year ago. The program concludes with the victory of Nigel Benn against Sanderline Williams and his upcoming fight against Roberto Duran as he vies for the World Middle Weight Title. | en_US |
