dc.description.abstractColin Ferguson, Jamaican immigrant was responsible for the NY commuter train shooting and killing four passengers and wounding nineteen was convicted. Thomas S. Gulotta, CEO of Nassau County expresses the shock, pain and anger faced by the local residents and the victim’s families. In other news, Robert Malval, Hiati’s Prime Minister made a last ditch attempt to get help from the Vatican to end the crisis there and restore democracy. Leslie Griffiths, British Catholic Priest – friend of Aristide in an interview with BBC correspondent Carol Orr is asked if he thought that it was too late, and gives his opinion on the controversial issues. International negotiators continued meetings in the hope of achieving a world trade agreement by December 15. The question remains - why the GATT negotiators have faced so many longstanding problems? The international charity - Christian Aid says that African, Caribbean and Pacific countries would be the biggest whether GATT is signed or not. Wendy Tindale, Head of Christian Aid’s Latin American and Caribbean section says that it is a no win situation for ACP countries. And, David Holford, West Indies manager says that it has been decided – that the West Indies test match with Sri Lanka that play will take place on Friday’s rest day - Carol Orr reports.en_US
