dc.description.abstract | A four part documentary series on Kingston’s Public Hospital could make the Chief Executive Officer, Donald Nelson lose his job. The document tarnishes the image of health services across the country and of Jamaica as a whole. Next, St Lucia's media workers slap a news blackout on government and opposition events. In the following segment, the Chairman of st. Lucia's Banana Growers' Association has described the industry on the verge of collapse. Cheques issued by the association were dishonoured. This comes as banana growers and local bankers refused to veto the association’s effort to borrow 10 million dollars. The following segment states that the Premier of Bermuda arrives in London tomorrow for discussion with the British government. One of the matters that would be up for discussion is the cleaning up of the former Royal Navy Base. Lastly, Europe’s year against racism is about to be launched. | en_US |
