dc.description.abstractDutch and Netherlands government officials have adjourned the meeting on the future status of CARICOM territories without reaching a decision on Curacao and Aruba, and officials in Curacao and Aruba have rejected the plan. Renwick Rose, Windward Islands Farmers' Association is interviewed by Mike Jarvis and correspondent Eddie Williams reports on the situation. An agricultural diversification project in the Windward Islands is being criticized by at least one Non Governmental Agency for lack of coordination. The Dominican Small Projects Assistance Programme has been assisting small farmers to diversify. Correspondent Mike Jarvis interviews Jacinta Bannis, Assistant Program Director. Cuba has rejected a UN Resolution condemning human rights abuses on the island as lies and hypocrisy – the Resolution was approved in Geneva at a UN Human Rights Commission Meeting. Ricardo Alarcón, Cuban Foreign Minister says that the resolution was orchestrated and manipulated by the US and that Cuba will not welcome the investigator nor accept any manipulation of the US to get rid of Cuba’s Socialist Regime - correspondent Lionel Martin reports. Similarities are being drawn between US David Koresh leader of a Branch Davidian religious sect/ cult and the late cult and commune leader Jim Jones in Guyana. It is also noted the increased number of people of Caribbean origin are being drawn to the cult, and Jone’s ability to lead members of the commune to drink cyanide in one of the biggest ever mass suicide - correspondent Jeremy Vine reports. A report published in Britain by the London Research Centre (an independent body) noted that 1 in 10 families belonging to ethnic minorities in London have been subjected to racial harassment, in the form of verbal or physical attack. The report is described as the first large scale survey - one of the most disturbing findings of the survey is that the number of these crimes that have not been reported to the police – correspondent Mike Jarvis reports.en_US
