dc.description.abstractAt the opening of a two day conference in Georgetown, Dr. Yesu Persaud Co-Chairman Guyana’s Private Sector Commission makes strong criticism about the region’s private sector being left out of trading negations. He noted that CARICOM needed less academic discussion and suggested that more power be given to the CARICOM Secretariat. Prime Minister Cheddi Jagan shares his sentiments as well– correspondent Yvette Rowe. The West Indies team has gotten a chance to view both white and black South Africa during its first official tour and charity match there. Conrad Hunt former Vice Captain comments and correspondent Timothy Eckert reports. Tougher sanctions are on the way for Haiti from the US and Canada to bring about a return to democracy, after failed diplomacy attempts by US Envoy Dante Caputo - correspondent Michael Norton reports. 300 public workers in Grenada are scheduled to be retrenched by mid-year by Prime Minister’s Nicholas Brathwaite administration. In an interview with correspondent Ronnie Bhola - PM Brathwaite discusses the possible impact of the retrenchment on the incumbent government - saying that he believes the government is stable enough to survive the execution of structural adjustment programme. The Manning administration faces massive trade union protest. It was undoubtedly the strongest worker force and solidarity that Trinidad and Tobago has seen since after the first 90 days of the ANR Robinson administration which began to feel the effect of unpopularity which eventually drove it from office in 1991 –correspondent Andy Johnson reports. Popular Guyanese born singer - Eddie Grant travelled to London for medical tests.en_US
