dc.description.abstractThe Windward Islands Banana Development and Exporting Company (WIBDECO)-Fyffes bid for Geest banana division runs into obstacles as there are concerns about the type of deal secured. Moreover, Dame Eugenia Charles called on the Windward Islands leaders to explain the proposed arrangements being made. A group of ten Haitian boat people landed on Jamaica's Northeastern coast seeking political asylum. In the US, the Republican controlled Congress target immigrants in a bill which seeks to end the automatic granting of citizenship to everyone born in the US. Also, three men were arrested by the FBI in what they claimed was a conspiracy to invade Cuba. In Guyana, the final report of the Omai cyanide spill continues but the socio-economic impact report has been delayed. Orin Gordon reports on a new foreign bid from Barama Timber Company which is interested in gold mining in Guyana. In cricket, the West Indies team remains without a win after three one-day matches in the World Cup Series. Sports commentator 'Reds' Pereira comments on Lara's return to the team and states West Indies batting needs Brian Lara. Finally, in Montserrat despite the threat of the active volcano, residents prepare for dual celebrations of Carnival and Christmas.en_US
