| dc.description.abstract | The authorities in the Dominican Republic say a man who was injured in clashes between protestors and police on Tuesday has died in hospital. Next, South Africa is confident of gaining partial membership of the Lome Convention, smoothing the way for a free trade deal with the European Union. In the following, there is increasing concern in Britain about the health of a number of asylum seekers at Worcester Prison near London. The detainees come from a number of countries including Jamaica. In this segment, European Parliament socialist have said that they want to ensure that a twelve month campaign against racism produces practical results. It is hoped that Europe’s year against racism should not just result in fine words while discrimination remains a problem. Next, Jamaica’s Angela King, a former UN Advisor on Gender Issues and the Advancement of Women, has been appointed Assistant Secretary General of the United Nations. Also, Jamaica’s Tourist Board starts a campaign in London next week to increase the number of tourists visiting the island. Concluding the report, the gathering of attorney generals from the Caribbean community in Trinidad have completed their two day talks. It was hoped that they would reach the decision of a Caribbean Court of Appeal and a Charter for Civil Society. | en_US |
