dc.description.abstract | CARICOM Secretary General designate Edwin Carrington leads an OAS team comprised of engineers, technocrats and other experts to assist Haiti in returning to democracy. In St. Lucia, tensions explode between opposition leader Julian Hunte and Prime Minister John Compton when Hunte reacts violently to political ribbing from the prime minister. Following CARICOMs Council of Trade Ministers meeting, three of the six named countries have agreed to remove licensing regimes which form an obstacle to regional free trade by April. The other three have not committed to a fixed date. Frank Da Silva will become a non-resident commissioner operating from Barbados as the Barbados High Commission is set to close operations in Trinidad and Tobago by April. Jamaican students studying in the Soviet Union are experiencing difficulty accessing diplomatic services such as payment of stipends and return airfare since the split of the former Soviet Union into the Commonwealth of Independent States. Although post mortem results list cause of death of Jamaican gangster Lester Llyod Coke from intoxication of carbon monoxide as a result of a fire in his prison cell, a Canadian forensic expert will arrive to further investigate the circumstances surrounding Coke’s death. Following their victory over Pakistan, the West Indies cricket team is confident of beating England in its second world cup match. Finally, the US State Department announced the return of Ambassador Alvin Adams to Haiti one month after being recalled due to an outbreak of violence. | en_US |
