dc.description.abstractThis report highlights a flotilla organized by Cuban exiles in Miami to Cuba. Jose Basulto, one of the organizers, states they will not violate the island's territorial waters or airspace but the possibility of confrontation is there. Meanwhile, a Cuban delegation has been in London to help forge plans for an international conference on sanctions. Alfredo Leon of the International Department of Cuba's Communist Party comments on the additional actions which can be taken by Cuba to get Washington to reconsider its sanctions against Havana. Caribbean activists and academics attended a landmark forum on women in Beijing, China. Caribbean non-governmental organizations have been most vocal on the issue of poverty. Montserrat's Governor Frank Savage has dismissed suggestions that the entire island should be evacuated following the increase in volcanic activity. In Britain, the debate on racism in cricket was re-opened following a controversial article in the Wisden magazine. The article has sparked a campaign to fight racism in the game. Charles Freeling, one of the organizers of the campaign "Hit Racism for Six" states that the overall aim is to ensure all cricket lovers could enjoy the game without fear of harassment. St. Vincent and the Grenadines have won a second international gold medal at the World Summit Games in Tokyo, Japan.en_US
