dc.description.abstract | In this report, Jamaica's Finance Minister, Omar Davies responds angrily to suggestions that the upsurge of gun violence in Jamaica is being taken too lightly. Journalist Gary Alleyne reports on the inability to identify the factors behind the increase in this type of violence and the effect it is having on the community and the political electorate. Carib Express, the region's newest airline has reported a good response since opening its reservation system. The British General Manager, Rory Barnes states that Carib Express has met nothing but goodwill. BWIA has been holding talks with both Carib Express and LIAT about future cooperation and shared bookings into Eastern Caribbean destinations. Ian Willabus reports on BWIA's plan to step up flights into Guyana which has angered aviation officials in Georgetown. The Cuban Foreign Minister Roberto Robaine has begun an official visit to Nepal. In Barbados, the cricket team has won the Red Stripe Championship after four years in the doldrums. Keith Holder responds to whether Barbadian cricket has regained the depth that made it so dominant in the past. | en_US |
