dc.description.abstract | Trinidad and Tobago's Prime Minister Basdeo Panday heads to London to undergo heart surgery. Mr. Panday spoke about his upcoming surgery and his hope to be back in time for the budget presentation. Tony Fraser comments on what exactly the surgery involves and the impact of the Prime Minister's health problem on Trinidad's politics. In Mr. Panday's absence, A.N.R. Robinson will return to the seat of power. In French St. Martin, hotel workers who lost their jobs as a result of hurricane Luis, have staged a demonstration. After a miserable Christmas, Montserrat's residents are optimistic for the new year following a drop in the level of activity at the volcano. Governor Frank Savage announced the good news. In Haiti, the level of apathy towards the political process remains high as two thirds of eligible voters did not bother to cast their ballots. The world's population grew this year by 100 million people, the largest increase ever. However, Caribbean countries are in line with efforts being made to control the world's every expanding population. In cricket, England's cricket captain Mike Atherton was handed a reprieve by match referee Clive Lloyd after his show of dissent in a match against South Africa. | en_US |
