| dc.description.abstract | The leader of Guyana's PNC - former President Desmond Hoyte is bringing Guyana's opposition leader Hamilton Green before the party's disciplinary committee. About 170 Haitian refugees in Miami have gone on hunger strike over unfair US immigration practices, they have vowed not to eat anything except water until they are treated like Cuban refugees. Speculation continues unabated over the possibility of premature general elections to be called in Jamaica by Prime Minister Percival Noel James Patterson. Parliamentary rejection of an agreement between the Suriname Government and two large bauxite companies is leading to large scale economic disruption in the country - the agreement was over the rate of exchange demanded by the bauxite companies a rate of 1.8 Sur guilders to the US dollar but the rate was thrown out in parliament. A record breaking partnership between Brian Lara and Richie Richardson of the West Indies team have posted an impressive reply to Australia’s mammoth first innings total 503-9 declared, which featured an unbeaten - 248:2 by Brian Lara in his maiden test century. Lara and Richardson combined to establish a new West Indies partnership in Australia of 217 runs, their marathon third record stand was also a test record for the Sydney cricket ground, that saved the match and the day. Brian Lara in an interview with BBC correspondent Reds Pereirra gives his thoughts on the condition that attributed to the West Indies victory in the match 7. (12:49-15:09) | en_US |
