Yesu Persad says that Guyana’s is the only country in the Caribbean practicing free trade,and two trade missions from Britain and the US are seeking investment opportunities in Guyana. Correspondents Debbie Ransome and Yvette Rowe report on the statements of Sally Yearwood of Caribbean Central American Action (CLAA) and Michael Adder. Suspension of individual agents buying foreign exchange on behalf of the Bank of Jamaica has raised questions about the integrity of the entire system.
