dc.description.abstractIn this report, Haiti's Justice Minister, Ernst Malebranche confirms his resignation and his plans to return to private law practice. Journalist Phillip Wearne files a report on the dilemma of justice versus vengeance issue in Haiti, after President Aristide's return to power. An interview with Jean-Yves Urfie, the editor of the country's only creole newspaper, echoes the doubts of many ordinary Haitians. Sarah Clark, Deputy Director of USAID in Haiti appreciates the problem and the dilemma faced by the current administration in Haiti. Mike Jarvis reports that Dutch St. Martin is to host a regional conference on judicial cooperation next year. Minister of Justice of the Netherland Antilles, Pedro Atacho stated that the region should adopt a joint and inter-regional approach to combat narco-trafficking and money laundering. A decision against casino gambling in Jamaica has seen a local hotel project in Montego Bay scaled down. Following anti-tax demonstrations in Antigua, the Opposition plans a general strike. Rosie Hayes speaks to Federico Mayor Zaragoza, Director-General of UNESCO, who says his agency's main role in Cuba is peace building. In the Dominican Republic, the plight of children being used to spread dangerous and illegal pesticides in agricultural work is examined. Director and Regional Coordinator of the Dominican Republic Environment Liaison Center, Raffaello Baez, has been documenting evidence on the issue for some time but gathering evidence and the denial of information by the government and private industries have hampered efforts. These concerns were then raised with Lesley Roberts, the Director of the London-based Anti-Slavery International.en_US
