POLICE INVESTIGATING DEPUTY GOVERNOR

HON. ANYA WILLIAMS INTERVENTION AT GRAND TURK POLICE STATION CAUSES CONTROVERSY BY HAYDEN BOYCE PUBLISHER & EDITOR-IN-CHIEF

T

he Professional Integrity Unit (PIU) of the Royal Turks and Caicos Islands Police Force is investigating a July 31st, 2013 incident involving Deputy Governor Hon. Anya Williams. A number of junior police officers made an official report to their superiors about how the Deputy Governor interacted with them while her brother Dominic Swann was detained for questioning at a police station in the island-capital of Grand Turk. Commissioner of Police Colin Farquhar told The SUN that the PIU was probing the matter to ascertain the facts about what happened. He did not elaborate. According to sources, the Deputy Governor’s brother Dominic Swann, was picked up by police in relation to a report about stolen coconuts last week. He was warned by police of intended prosecution and was being held by police in a cell when the Deputy Governor Williams and her father Pastor Denis Swann went to the police station. Reports from eye-witnesses indicated that tempers flared and there were some heated words. Well-placed sources told The SUN that one or more of the police officers who were at the Grand

Turk Police Station made official written reports to their superiors in which they complained about being intimidated and insulted. The Royal Turks and Caicos Islands Police Force reports directly to the Governor. Hon. Williams, the youngest Deputy Governor in the British Overseas Territories, recently acted as Governor while the

substantive Governor Ric Todd was on leave for about a month. Government sources said that in the interest of transparency a report on the incident will be forwarded to the Integrity Commission to determine if there was any obstruction of justice or if Hon. Williams breached any rules, laws or codes of conduct.

In accordance with section 102(3) of the Constitution and section 58A of the Integrity Commission Ordinance (the Ordinance), the Integrity Commission recently carried out investigations into allegations of contravention of the Code of Conduct by the Premier Hon. Dr. Rufus Ewing and the Minister Don-Hue Gardiner. They were both cleared.

TWO HAITIANS SLOOPS LAND IN PROVIDENCIALES Two sloops carrying illegal Haitians entered Turks and Caicos Islands waters last weekend. One of the boats landed undetected early last Saturday morning in the Chalk Sound area and an undisclosed number of Haitians were able to get away. Some of them were eventually nabbed by Immigration officials. The other vessel carrying just over 100 persons was intercepted by the Marine Branch Sunday, towed into the South Dock harbour and the illegal Haitians taken to the Detention Centre in Five Cays.

No requirement by MPs to disclose a charge on Belonger discount C

hief Justice Edwin Goldsbrough has ruled that there is no requirement by Members of Parliament to disclose a charge on the register reflecting a Belonger discount. The Chief Justice handed down the judgment on august 6th, 2013, in the matter between the Attorney General and Amanda Misick, George Lightbourne, Edwin Astwood, Derek Taylor, Josephine Connolly and Delroy Williams. The Chief Justice said noted that Section 50 of the Turks and Caicos Islands Constitution requires any candidate for election to the House of Assembly to make a written declaration to the Supervisor of Elections that he or she is qualified for election and that no disqualification mentioned in section 49 applies to him or her. The Supervisor of Elections must publish any declaration made. The declaration may be challenged as to its veracity within five days of publication. He stated: “Under Section 49 there are set out ten disqualifications for elected or appointed membership of the House of Assembly. The relevant disqualification in this instance is contained in section 49 (1) (f) wherein it is provided that a person shall not be qualified to be an elected member of the House of Assembly who, on the date of his or her nomination for election is a party to any contract with the government and who has not, by that date, disclosed in a notice to the Integrity Commission the nature of such contract and his or her in it. Thus it is not the existence or the otherwise of a contract with the government that disqualifies a candidate from election but disclosure of its existence to the Integrity Com-

mission.” He said that a ‘Belonger discount’ is offered to the Turks and Caicos Islander who leases Crown land. That lease of Crown land involves an agreement to develop the land within a specified period of time and thereafter the transfer of the Freehold of the same land subject to a charge in the amount of the discount offered. That charge is conditioned upon the land remaining in the hands of the Belonger for 10 years. If the land is sold or otherwise disposed of within the 10 year period to a person who is not a Belonger then the amount of the discount becomes immediately payable under the charge. At the expiration of the ten year period without such a disposition the charge itself expires without penalty and the Belonger is then free to dispose of the land without reference to the former encumbrance. The Chief Justice added: “In negotiations to secure a parcel of land for the construction of dwelling house between the prospective landowner and the Crown an offer would have been made by the Crown to lease and then transfer the Freehold of the land subject to certain conditions. One of those conditions, in the case of a Belonger discount, is to restrict disposal of the land within 10 years. Another condition will be the construction of the dwelling house itself. When an offer has been made and accepted between parties the resultant agreement often forms the basis of a contract. It is clear that during the period of the lease and until the transfer of the Freehold the lease and the lessor are parties to a continuing contract.”

He continued: “As to the submission that any contract is with the Crown and not the Government, this is based on the notion that Crown Land can be disclosed of only by His Excellency the Governor on behalf of the Crown and not acting on behalf of the Government of the day. In these circumstances, although one can identify examples where the Crown acts as the Monarch as opposed to the Executive, given that dispositions follow from the advice given to His Excellency by Cabinet, it is difficult to see that the Crown is acting in such circumstances as other than the Government. The proceeds of the repayment of any discount would not belong to the Monarch but would form part of Government revenue after all. Because the effect and nature of a charge by way of security under the Registered Land Ordinance the Court is minded to accept the submission that this defendant was not a party to a contract with government that was required to be disclosed under section 49 (1) (f). The court accepts that his was in fact disclosed from an abundance of caution but was not required to be disclosed as a contract within the terms of section 49 (1) (f). Even if that view were considered to be wrong in law, the Court further considers that it should not be expected to be disclosed as falling outside those contracts which need to be subject of disclosure to avoid the targeted mischief. Given the widespread availability of the Belonger discount there is little benefit in confirmation by an individual candidate of the fact that they took legitimate advantage of the scheme.”

Report from the latest Cabinet meeting H

is Excellency the Governor, Ric Todd, chaired the 17th meeting of the Cabinet on Wednesday 7 August 2013 at the House of Assembly Building on Grand Turk. All Ministers were present at the meeting except the Minister for Environment and Home Affairs, who was absent for personal reasons. At this meeting Cabinet: Discussed the establishment of the Audit Committee created in accordance with section 16 (9) - (13) of the Public Financial Management Ordinance 2012.

surplus of $2.2m and a year to date surplus of $12.8m, which is an encouraging start to the financial year. All of the key revenue streams are outperforming last year’s results, mainly from increased compliance efforts. Expenditure is performing broadly in line with expectations with a $3.2m YTD positive variance; this variance will reduce over time as planned activities are implemented.

Noted a paper presented by the Premier setting out proposals for the Government’s Legislative Programme. The programme included some 66 pieces of legislation, identified in consultation with all Government Ministries, which need to be amended or developed over the next 18 months. This legislation is necessary to give effect to Government policies. Cabinet recognised that the list was not exhaustive and would be subject both to new priorities and capacity constraints. Cabinet further agreed that the three priority areas for legislation would be: measures with revenue potential; immigration and employment; and international obligations or matters with international implications. The programme will be published shortly; Agreed on a proposal from the Finance Minister to reduce duty on insurance and freight charges to 5% for building materials, specifically blocks, steel, sand, cement and aggregate.

The areas to be covered will include formalisation of

Cabinet decided to consider the issue further when the review is completed; Noted a report from the Minister for Education, Youth, Sports and Culture on progress made with the School Maintenance works for summer vacation period - 2013. The budget for school maintenance in 2013 is $350,000.

Government to introduce six percent general service tax for professionals and tourism related services A

s an alternative to the introduction of VAT the Government says that it has decided to shift its focus towards improving collection, increasing levels of compliance and audit of the existing tax structure and the implementation of some “temporary” revenue generating measures. The Minister of Finance, in his budget address, announced the introduction of a General Service Tax with an expected implementation of 1 October 2013. The new tax will be imposed on businesses providing professional

and tourism-related services. These businesses are intended to include accounting, architecture, engineering, real estate (including property management), legal, surveying, information technology, water sports, tour operators, spas, consulting, and landscaping services. The General Service Tax is proposed to be levied at a rate of six (6) percent, with no registration threshold. All businesses that are licensed under relevant categories will be required to register, charge, collect

and remit GST, and all registered businesses will be required to issue proper invoices and receipts. Relevant businesses will also be required to keep proper books and records in the TCI in English. The records are intended to include original return forms, invoices, receipts, financial statements, bank deposit statements, and sales books. Registered businesses will have to retain relevant records for a minimum of 5 years. Relevant businesses will have to file GST returns monthly, even if

there are no transactions, on or before the 15th of each month, with Revenue Control. Any return filed later than the 15th of the month will be subject to a 20% penalty. Further penalties of 10 percent will be applied for each additional month outstanding returns remain unpaid. The Ordinance imposes penalties for failing to register, failing to file, failing to keep proper records, fraud, and evasion of the tax. Persons can be fined up to $50,000.00 and/or imprisoned for 2 years.

George Missick clarifies the $20,000 payment for Cubans who fled Turks and Caicos Islands L

ocal attorney George Missick says the $20,000 paid to the court on behalf of Cubans who fled the Turks and Caicos Islands was not because of any breach on his part. Missick said he thought it necessary to clarify the position because some persons got the incorrect impression that he was sanctioned by the court and had to personally pay the government $20,000 for the Cubans leaving, when in fact the $20,000 was paid into a trust account by the client and that same $20,000 was ordered to be forfeited by the judge and paid into the Supreme Court which is usual if someone fail to comply with bail conditions. Misick explained: “One of the conditions of the 9 Cubans being released from immigration detention earlier this year was that they post a $20,000 bail which would be subject to forfeiture if they breached the other terms of bail or in this case left the country while their asylum applications were pending. They posted this $20,000 which the court ordered to be held by my firm instead of paid into the Court, as the Supreme Court did not have a separate account at that time to hold the funds (this was the usual Court order when holding funds). They were released from detention once we received the $20,000 and gave the Court an undertaking to hold it in escrow and to pay it over to the Court if they breached the bail conditions.” The attorney who is a managing partner of the law firm Karam and Misick added: “ As reported correctly in the news, the family left the country before the asylum applications were determined. Several month later the AG’s Chambers made an application to the Court to have the $20,000 forfeited and paid into the Court which was not contested and the court ordered that the mon-

George Missick ey be forfeited, which is the normal and usual order in the circumstances. We paid our client’s $20,000 into the Court and that concluded the matter. The mischief created by the misleading titled article is the inference that the Judge made the family’s attorney personally pay $20,000 because they left. I neither any other member of my firm stood as surety for the family or had to pay any money as a result of the family leaving.”

Missick said the fact that the family left while on temporary admission to the TCI does not weaken the fact that the case set an important precedent in the Turks and Caicos as to when persons held in immigration detention should be released where asylum applications are pending. “It also enhanced the Turks and Caicos’ reputation in the US and international as a country that respects human rights. The fami-

ly had been held in detention for over 3 months although they were never charged with any offence,” Missick added. “ I understand that the family who are related to major league baseball star Yonenis Cespedes are in the US and are working with their lawyers there to regularise their immigration statuses. Also since being reunited with his family in the US, Yoenis Cespedes is playing exceptionally well and on July 15, 2013, he won the Major League Baseball’s 2013 Home Run Derby.” The Cubans, which included four children, were picked up from a home in Discovery Bay, Providenciales in October last year (2012) and taken to the detention centre. Six of them - the four children and their mothers were later released in a domestic setting. While preparation was being made for their repatriation, the Cubans filed for asylum, saying that they would be punished if returned to the communist island. When they went to court in January of this year, then Acting Chief Justice Margaret Ramsay-Hale released them on the basis that their statuses in the country had changed from illegal entrants to asylum seekers. In granting their release, she recommended that a $20,000 bond be posted as surety and that they should report to the police station three times a week until the outcome of their asylum hearing. The Turks and Caicos however, woke up on Monday (March 11) to the news that the Cubans boarded a boat and departed our shores for the United States, where they reportedly received by family members. Reports reaching The SUN are that they might have left the country between Saturday, March 9 and Sunday, March 10.

Director of Tourism Ralph Higgs supports Canada/Turks and Caicos Islands integration T

he deep trade and investment linkages that at least one Canadian Member of Parliament is trying to establish between the Turks and Caicos Islands and Canada have found a friend in a prominent member of the TCI community. Ralph Higgs, who is also the Director of Tourism was the leader TCI ‘s ďŹ rst delegation to Canada in 1987, to establish closer trade and investment relations with that industrialized country, but since then, it appeared as if successive political movers and shakers have ostensibly been steering clear of that collaboration. Recently, Conservative Canadian Member of Parliament Peter Goldring, raised the issue after Premier Hon. Rufus Ewing visited that country on government business in June. But some locals have been skeptical of the link that Goldring and other Canadians have been vouching for, forcing the MP to set the record straight in an interview with The SUN. Higgs, who revealed the idea of the Turks and Caicos Islands establishing a deep trade and investment relations with Canada has been around for more than a hundred years, said that such association would be a good thing for the Turks and Caicos, since it could open tremendous doorways to the wider world. “I picture, and there have been discussions that I am of aware of about using the Turks and Caicos as a free trade zone. In fact, South Caicos was mentioned on multiple occasions. Canadian goods and services coming into the region will be held here and dispensed from here. For example, ships going from South America to North America pass by here every day. “If we had a hub here, we could beneďŹ t. Cur-

If you are coming from Brazil, for example, anywhere in North America – New York You come here, you leave your cargo here, you go back South America. It cuts that down by probably three or four days at sea,� Higgs argued. He said the Turks and Caicos, of forged an alliance with Canada, could become the gateway to Canadian investment in the region. “There would be Canadian goods and services going into the region. Cuba is set to open any day. We have a Haitian population at our doorsteps that is seeking investment every day. I think this can be an investment for Canadian goods and ser-

This could be the hub. Our men and women who want to pursue a life in the military, they can do that with these kinds of relationships.

I think there is tremendous amount of wisdom in it. I think it is precisely what we need to turn the corner as a country in terms of our development and declaring ourselves ultimately for nationhood. “I think it is something that we must explore.

CIBC FCIB Turks and Caicos Islands named in IRS investigation BY HAYDEN BOYCE PUBLISHER & EDITOR-IN-CHIEF

A

revenue agent from the United States of America’s Internal Revenue Service (IRS) says she has uncovered evidence that the CIBC FCIB branch in the Turks and Caicos Islands was one of many in the Caribbean used by wealthy American citizens to hide money. In documents filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, San Francisco Division, Cheryl Kiger, said she interviewed an American taxpayer who controlled three different business accounts and one personal account at CIBC FCIB in the Turks and Caicos Islands. She stated: “Some of those deposits to those accounts represented income earned for advisory services provided to third parties. He failed to report this income on his US income tax returns until he made his voluntary disclosure in 2009.” In April this year, Senior District Judge Thelton E. Henderson authorized the IRS to serve a so-called “John Doe” summons on San Francisco-based financial services firm Wells Fargo & Co, according to the Justice Department. The summons enabled federal tax authorities to identify taxpayers who hold or held interests in financial accounts at Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce FirstCaribbean International Bank (FCIB) and other financial in-

stitutions that used FCIB’s Wells Fargo correspondent account from January 1, 2004, through December 31, 2012. A John Doe summons is used by the IRS to obtain information about possible violations of Internal Revenue laws by individuals whose identities are unknown. Kiger said the IRS has long been concerned with the problem of United States tax payers whether involved in lawful or unlawful activities, evading their United States tax obligations by concealing unreported taxable income in accounts in offshore tax havens or financial secrecy jurisdictions. Kiger said she also discovered information about a U.S taxpayer who had opened numerous bank accounts at FCIB and its predecessor Barclays Bank in a Caribbean jurisdiction in his own name and in the names of various shell companies he controlled. These FCIB accounts were used, among things, as conduits for the transfer of tens of millions of dollars in and out of the United States between various financial accounts he controlled.

The IRS said she a US taxpayer who was the owner of a U.S taxicab company and was also beneficial owner of a Cayman Islands shell corporation formed on his behalf. This shell corporation was formed by an offshore service provider in the Cayman Islands to hold and invest for any portions of “premiums” paid for offshore insurance that were not used to pay his claims. The normal owner of the company was another Cayman Islands corporation formed by the offshore service provider to serve in that capacity. The Cayman Islands shell company opened an account at Barclays Bank, which later became FCIB, to hold the funds. The person did not direct signature authority over the FCIB account, but exercised actual authority through the nominal owner of his shell company, which followed his instructions with regard to the account. Although he was the beneficial owner of the FCIB account, his name appeared nowhere on the documents related to the account, his shell company, or its nominal owner. She also interviewed another American who has an active business in the British Virgin Islands (BVI). In addition to business bank accounts that had previously been opened at FCIB for his

TURKS & CAICOS SUN

business by an agent, he and his wife opened personal accounts at FCIB in 2006, at which they maintained certificates of deposit. The certificates of deposit and their earnings were not reported on their U.S income tax returns until he made his voluntary disclosure in 2009. The IRS also discovered a U.S permanent resident employed by a consulting firm in the United States, who, in 2006, used a Bahamian law firm to set up a Bahamian corporation to hold a bank account to receive commissions for consulting services performed for third parties without the knowledge if his employer. The law firm refereed him to FCIB to open the account. When he opened the account, he was told by an FCIB employee that no bank information would be given to the United States without a legal request. He used wire transfers to move funds in and out of the account. He failed to report any of the commissions that were deposited into the FCIB account on his U.S income tax returns until he made his voluntary disclosure in 2009. Kiger said the experience of the IRS has shown that not only private banking relationships can be used to conceal ownership of funds from taxing authorities and others. Taxpayers making voluntary disclosures under the IRS’s recent offshore voluntary disclosure initiatives have reported the use of undisclosed bank accounts in over 600 banks or branches of banks in jurisdictions around the world. Many of these offshore accounts were held through shell companies and trusts that employed other practices to conceal beneficial ownership information. The investigations are continuing

Cynthia Hinsey remembered as a caring, lovable teacher BY VIVIAN TYSON

C

ynthia Hinsey, the Clement Howell High School teacher, who was killed in a motor vehicle accident on Thursday (August 1) along the Leeward Highway, Providenciales, will be remembered as someone who touched the lives of a number of persons, including many of her students. When The SUN visited the home of her mother – Karen Cox – on Friday (August 2), she said the outpour of love for her daughter was so tremendous, it is almost unbelievable. She said the throng of people who left their beds to journey to the Cheshire Hall Medical Centre in Providenciales, on Thursday night, after the accident, to lend their support, and the dozens of phone calls that she has been receiving was overwhelming. Cox explained that Cynthia, who was employed at the Clement Howell High School at the time of her death, had an incredible effect on her students based on the level of love she received from them wherever they saw her on the street or at an event. One of the most memorable incidents regarding her daughter was when a parent, whose son was not making the grade at the Clement Howell High School, approached her for advice. Weeks after giving his mother counsel, the boy’s grades began to

climb to the point that he was placed ďŹ rst in his class. Cox said that his mother was so thankful that she brought over a huge bucket of ďŹ sh for her and her daughter, and offered to clean their house, the latter which they gracefully declined. Cox, who operates a booth at the weekly Fish Fry at the Bight Park, said that Cynthia and her daughter were also at the event on Thursday, and offered her a ride after the event had ended but she declined the offer on about three occasions. She told her that she would wait until her husband came for her. She said that it was after reaching home a little while that she learned that her daughter and grandchild met in an accident. She recalled Cynthia as being someone with a great deal of resilience. “She was somebody that if she puts her mind to something she is going to achieve it. And I think by deciding to become a teacher is one of the challenges that she overcame. After graduating from college in the Bahamas, the ďŹ rst thing she said was, ‘mommy I made it when others thought I wouldn’t have’. That was the greatest achievement for her. She made some mistakes (while attending school), but I guess she wanted to prove to everybody that she could achieve,â€? Cox said.

Cynthia Hinsey Cox said that after returning to the Turks and Caicos Islands a little over a year ago she had used her personal experience to impact the lives of many of her students and other young people in her community. Cox said, too, that Cynthia was a very outspoken person, and would not mince words when making a point. She said such disposition has won her a great deal of admirers and no doubt some detractors as well. “She has been a teacher for more than a year and she has taught many students life. She is very outspoken, and she likes to talk, just like me. And what was so amazing was how the children loved her. She would always

get involved in her students’ lives. She was already an excellent teacher, actually, she was already (an excellent teacher) because parents had started to come out and say what she had done for their children. In the meantime, Cox said that the outpouring of love she received after the accident remained staggering. She said that a number of persons, some of whom she hardly knew, assisted with ďŹ nance in allowing her granddaughter to y to the Bahamas for treatment on Thursday night. “It was amazing. I had people who came out there (hospital); I didn’t ask anybody for anything. They said: ‘your granddaughter is going off, this is a token on our behalf’. People just blessed me last night (Thursday). I think all that came about by how you treat people. “When you make your children to respect people, the respect goes a long way. I always tell my children to respect people. I like to talk, just like Cynthia. I told my children the truth, no matter what. And if they take it the wrong way, they would only get mad for a couple of days and would later realize what I was saying was right,â€? Cox said. Cox said that she was happy when Cynthia gave her life to the Lord recently at the Abundant Life Ministries International, located along Leeward Highway. “Sometimes she would say, ‘mommy, things rough, but God has it all under control’,â€? Cox said. In the meantime, Cox said that her grandchild was rapidly improving in a Nassau hospital.

Hoax 911 calls a major concern for police P

olice are expressing concern about the alarming number of hoax calls that are being made to the 911 emergency number. According to police public relations officer Audley Astwood, on average, the Royal Turks and Caicos Islands Police Force receives 100 calls per day on the 911 number that are not genuine emergencies. Officers of the Royal Turks & Caicos Islands Police are therefore warning young people of the dangers of making hoax calls to emergency services. “Officers are reminding young people that if they make repeated nuisance calls to police they could be prosecuted for wasting police time and made to reimburse emergency services for any cost incurred to follow up on a hoax call,” Astwood said. “Public reporting is an important part of the fight against crime and any attempt to disrupt this service will be investigated thoroughly.” He added: “Every time someone misuses the ‘911’ emergency call number they are potentially putting others’ lives at risk. This is especially true when we receive a large number of nuisance calls as it could impact on how quickly other emergency calls are answered. This behaviour is unacceptable and we will continue to actively pursue those who make malicious calls.” Earlier this year police officials visited schools throughout the entire country speaking to pupils about nuisance calls and also when to call 911. “You should only call 911 in a real emergency when a crime is happening, when someone suspected of a crime is nearby or where someone is injured, being threatened or in danger,” Astwood stated.

TCIG spent $13million on SIPT and Civil Recovery payments in last financial year BY HAYDEN BOYCE PUBLISHER & EDITOR-IN-CHIEF

T

he Turks and Caicos Islands Government spent a staggering $13million dollars funding the Helen Garlick-led Special Investigations and Prosecutions Team (SIPT) and the Civil Recovery Unit last financial year. According to the quarterly financial report ending March 31, 2013, SIPT expenditure was $6.6million, while the expenditure for the Civil Recovery Unit was $7.3million. According to a document from the Ministry of Finance, Civil Recovery expenditure for the fourth quarter totaling US $1.8 million was 42% over the budget and 4% less than that of the previous year, while the year’s total Civil Recovery expenditure of $7.3million was above budget by 47% and above that of the previous year by 26%. The over spend against budget was due to the Civil Recovery Team taking on extensive work, resulting in additional monies being recovered in the short term, the report said. It was noted that Civil Recovery income for the quarter totaled US $12.3 million. This, according to the document, primarily arose from the Sandals Group Settlement made in Janu-

ary 2013. Civil Recovery Income over the full year totaled US $28.2 million, which included amounts paid for properties in Salt Cay and Emerald Cay. Revenue from land sales totaled US $11.2 million for the year while amounts of US $5.1 million and US $6 million were received from EU as budgetary support and from UK FCO. Other grants stood at US $ 1.6 million for the year, including also US $1.15 million from UK FCO for building renovation to the Courts. SIPT expenditure for the fourth quarter of US $1.5 million was 16% less than the budgeted amount and 9% less than that of the previous year. The full year expenditure of US $6.6 million came in 5% below budget and 14% less than that of the previous year. In March last year it was reported that the law firm Edwards Wildman Palmer which is involved with the Civil Recovery Unit, posted an 18 per cent increase in revenue, from $297.9 million to $352.7 million in its first post-merger financial results. An online report said that the integration process seems not to have had an adverse effect on productivity, with revenue per lawyer rising by 2.5 per cent across the firm, from $587,679 to $602,856. Average profit per equity partner remained flat during the peri-

od, which deputy managing partner Laurence Harris explained was a result of merger integration costs. Edwards Wildman Palmer was formed on 1 October 2011 year by the merger of Edwards Angell Palmer & Dodge and 150-lawyer Chicago firm Wildman Harrold Allen & Dixon. From June 24th to 26th, 2013 a CARICOM Ministerial Fact-Finding Mission led by the Minister of Foreign Affairs of The Bahamas, the Hon. Frederick Mitchell, and comprising the Minister of Foreign Affairs of St Kitts and Nevis, the Hon. Patrice Nisbett, the Designated Special Envoy to CARICOM of the President of Haiti, Noel Peterson, and supported by Ambassador Cohn Granderson, Assistant Secretary-General, Foreign Policy and Community Relations, CARICOM Secretariat, visited the Turks and Caicos Islands. The CARICOM team stated in a report that was presented to the Heads of Government Summit in Trinidad and Tobago, noted that “another common narrative which bears examination is that the justice being administered by the SIPT has cost the people of the TCI some $46million with no end in sight” and that only islanders are facing criminal charges and jail time when non-islanders have been able to purchase justice.

Immigration Minister supports TCHTA Employment website BY VIVIAN TYSON

M

inister for Border Control and Labor Hon. Don-hue Gardiner is conďŹ dent that the employment web portal (www.tchtacareers.com) launched by the Turks and Caicios Islands Hotel and Tourism Association (TCHTA) on Friday (August 2) will complement the jobs data bank at the Labor Department. Speaking at the website launch at the Opus Restaurant, minister Gardiner said that with the creation of a new avenue for unemployed Turks and Caicos Islanders, more opportunities for job placement would be created. “We see this as being an add-on as opposed to be in competition with the (the Labor Department),â€? Gardiner said. “We see this as a true partnership with Labor Department and the TCHTA. What we hope is that the statistical information that we can gather from the TCHTA’s efforts would better enable us to create policies and guide how we would, in the future, developing our own portal and, that the work that we will be doing in the future will assist the TCHTA in that same partnership for growth.â€? Stacy Cox, Executive Director of the TCHTA said that the portal gives locals and those abroad the opportunity to acquire jobs within the sector even easier than before. She said that the career portal would now alleviate the hassle for, especially Turks and Caicos Islanders living locally, of having to journey from one resort to the next, to drop off rĂŠsumĂŠs.

From left – Bridgette Thomas of BNC Consultant and TCHTA Member; Stacy Cox, Executive Director of the TCHTA, Michel Neutelings, President of the TCHTA; and Minister for Border Control and Labor Hon. Don-Hue Gardiner. “It will give locals residing in Turks and Caicos, studying and living abroad an opportunity to go onto our web portal to look for any available job in the hospitality industry, through our membership that is available to them online,� Cox said. The idea is the brainchild of Bridgette Thomas, who said she was only too happy when the TCHTA asked her to lead the project. “Having spent more than 25 years of my career in HR, it was certainly my pleasure, when the board of the TCHTA, which I am also as member, approached me and asked if I would spearhead this project. This is a project that is near and dear to our president, and certainly it was excited for me to be involved with,� Thomas said. Explaining what the system does for the job market, Thomas said: “Essentially, this is a web-

site that creates a resource, not only for employers but also those individuals who are currently seeking employment. It makes the job search much easier. Now (instead of journeying from one resort to the next to drop off) rĂŠsumĂŠs you can go onto this website, and you will be able to see all of these positions that are currently open within the hospitality and tourism industry.â€? For his part, Michel Neutelings, President of the TCHTA said he is exciting about the launch of the project and the prospects it poses for the job market. “We are extremely committed to making sure that there is full employment in the Turks and Caicos, and that we also make sure that there is ongoing training process, ongoing motivational training process,â€? Neutilings said. He added: “The Ministry of Immigration was very helpful and we have got very good feedback from them. We are so thankful that government has been so helpful. We are also thankful to BNC Consultant – Bridgette Thomas - who is the brains behind all of this, and also Stacy Cox, who also runs the Hotel Association. We also thank the executive of the TCHTA for all their involvement.â€? In the meantime, Gardiner thanked the TCHTA for not only recognizing that there are some level of joblessness in the TCI and the need for a system to remedy such reality, but also taking steps to put mechanism in place to kick-start the remedying process. The implored the general public, especially Islanders without jobs to visit the site and see if they could ďŹ nd opportunities.

Miss Turks and Caicos Universe prepares for Moscow BY VIVIAN TYSON

S

nwanza Adams, the 2013 Miss Turks and Caicos Islands Universe queen, is revving her preparation into high gear as she gets ready for the Miss Universe Pageant to be held on November 9, at the Crocus City Hall in Moscow, Russia. Adams will go up against approximately 84 other representatives across the globe for the title as she seeks to bring the title home to the Turks and Caicos Islands. New franchise holder for the event locally, Kazz Forbes, told The SUN that wholesale preparation is now taking place to get Adams in superlative shape for the event. “We are now in the process of preparing Miss Snwanza Adams to participate in the Miss Universe 2013 Pageant. The finale will be November 9th in Russia. So we have a lot of preparation that we are going through now,” Forbes said. In addition to piquing her knowledge on all things Turks and Caicos, Forbes said that the franchise is also assembling Adams’ wardrobe. “We are getting to get her wardrobe approved and signed off, and the wardrobe would be all done by St. George Fashion House,” Forbes said.

Snwanza Adams, Miss Turks and Caicos Universe 2013

“St. George Fashion House is the Art Director and producer of the (Miss Turks and Caicos Universe) Pageant. “She is to start full training which will entail runway, marketing and sales. She is now learning

giving value to our customers and giving an opportunity to win with LIME.” Ms. Hall thanked the partners at Graceway IGA who were fully supportive during both Shopping Spree sessions.

Delleriece Hall with winner Talesiya Missick and Ken Burns of IGA Talesiya resides in Grand Turk so she said, “My aunt and I came into the store last night and planned the strategy.” That strategy was well executed during her run directly to the Meat Department where she stocked up. LIME’s Delleriece Hall commented, “Talesiya topped the old record of just over $1100 from the previous winner. She shopped for over $1500.” She continued, “This is what LIME is about, it is about

Mr. Ken Burns from Graceway IGA noted, “We would like to thank LIME once again for a well organized shopping event and the chance for IGA to host the Shopping Spree.” Mr. Burns thanked his team as well for preparing the store for the event. There were winners all around, a customer participated in a LIME text to win promo and she won airfare and free shopping from LIME and Graceway IGA.

a whole lot more about the Turks and Caicos Islands; so that once she is out there she would be able to highlight us in a very good way. ” He told The SUN that local, as well as upcoming designers from the Caribbean would also be asked to submit apparels, which he said could be added to her line of attire. “We will be inviting local designers and designers from the Caribbean submit pieces for her to wear while she is away. So, it will not be about St. George Fashion House, but will also highlight local designers and other budding designers in the Caribbean. Based on Adams educational background, self-assurance and personality, Forbes believes that she would acquit herself well on behalf of the Turks and Caicos Islands. “What she really offers is that she is a beautiful young lady. She is a teacher at her alma mater – Clement Howell High School. She is truly educated. She has two degrees and Master’s and a Bachelor’s in Science. She is really enthused and excited. She is putting her best and we are really excited, this being out first year as the Miss Turks and Caicos Universe organization,” Forbes said.

DIGICEL NO LONGER CHARGING ROAMING RATES ACROSS THE CARIBBEAN AND US

D

igicel, the best value mobile operator, will dispense with roaming charges across its Caribbean and the US markets, it was announced. The move which applies to voice, SMS and data roaming charges sees customers being able to communicate for the same great rates that they pay at home when they travel in the Caribbean and the US. It will be in place across the region by 1st October 2013 and customers will not be charged an activation fee. As the first operator in the region to dispense with roaming rates, Digicel is reaffirming its commitment to customers and to ensuring that they always benefit from best value. The moves comes on the back of the fantastic customer reaction to Digicel’s “Same Rates a Yaad” plan launched in Jamaica which has since been mirrored in markets like Barbados, Panama and Trinidad and the company’s ongoing mission to ensure that customers get more for less. In welcoming the news, Jamaica’s Minister of Science, Technology, Energy and Mining, Mr. Phillip Paulwell, said; “This move by Digicel is commendable, and is definitely a step in the right direction.” Brian Finn, Digicel Group Commercial Director, comments; “At Digicel, we are always looking for new ways to drive value to our customer base and to keep people connected. We are proud to be the first operator to be making this move and to be ensuring that our valued customers can communicate easily and economically wherever they are in the region.” He continues; “This is all about giving our customers the freedom to communicate as they wish when they travel without the fear of running up high bills.” Digicel Group Limited is a leading global communications provider with operations in 31 markets in the Caribbean, Central America and Asia Pacific. After 12 years of operation, total investment to date stands at over US$4.5 billion worldwide. The company is renowned for delivering best value, best service and best network.

Premier Ewing calls for attitude change in Emancipation Day message P

remier of the Turks and Caicos Islands Hon. Dr. Rufus Ewing said, in a message to mark Emancipation Day, that true liberation will only really come when there are changes in attitudes, beliefs and practices across barriers of race, nationality and socio-economic class. “As our forefathers fought against the whips and chains, so too must we recognize that our battles still remain to be fought against political subjugation, economic suppression and racial discrimination. So cry out we must continue to do, as the late Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King said, “Freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed”,” the Premier said in the message which was released on Emancipation Day which was celebrated in the Turks and Caicos Islands on Monday August 5th. Emancipation Day is celebrated in many former British colonies in the Caribbean during the first week of August in observance of the emancipation of slaves of African origin. The Slavery Abolition Act 1833

Turks and Caicos Islands Premier Hon. Dr. Rufus Ewing ended slavery in the British Empire on August 1, 1834.

The Premier said he celebrated this emancipation day with mixed emotions, “as even though we have won many battles, we as an Afro-Caribbean people have

not yet won the war for full liberation”. He added: “It is essential that we as a people recognize that the power for change lies within us and that the truth is that we must first become the change that we seek by overcoming personal challenges of self-hatred as a race and as a people. We must seek to destroy on a personal level, feelings of envy and jealousy for our own brothers and sisters and to instead together build each other up. If we are to prosper and be dominant as a nation and as a region we must not allow our own lack of self-regard to be the specter of slavery that this generation falls prey to. In the words of the great Bob Marley ‘Emancipate yourself from mental slavery, none but ourselves can free our minds’.” The Premier continued: “My Turks and Caicos Islanders, as a people we must first understand the true meaning of liberation; we must next continue the fight to determine the destiny of our

nation and the destiny of our people. Jose Marti said “The first duty of a man is to think for himself”, and until that time comes when we are the ones to make our own decisions in our best interests we will not be free! Another great philosopher said, “It is better to die on one’s feet than to live on ones knees” so until that time comes when we are no longer told that we cannot survive unless we are still a dependent territory, we will not be free! Until we believe in ourselves as people and a nation and until we believe that Almighty God will guide and protect us all as a new nation we cannot be truly free! Let us liberate our minds, our spirits and our nation as we move each other forward into the promise of our future. I leave you with these words to reflect upon today and charge you to be reminded of the true meaning of this day, as it speaks to how much still remains for us to accomplish as a people as we aspire to reach our goal of true freedom.”

POLICE FORCE TO GET NEW VEHICLES SOON

I

n another few months, the Royal Turks and Caicos Islands Police Force will have 23 brand new vehicles.

A notice recently went out for dealers to tender to supply the vehicles and Commissioner of Police Colin Farquhar said the process should be completed by October. Farquhar told The SUN the force will have 21 sports utility vehicles (SUVs) and two vans. The new vehicles will be shared between the islands of Grand Turk and Providenciales. The Commissioner said the RTCIPF currently has 36 vehicles, many of which are old and/or not in proper working condition. He added that some of these older vehicles will be sent to the family islands and some may even be given to other Government departments that need basic transportation. Farquhar said the 23 new vehicles will be the first installment of a fleet upgrade that would assist police in executing better and more patrols and ultimately reducing crime.

Minnesota’s Paul White Comes Forward to Claim His Share of $448M Powerball Jackpot

P

aul White, from Ham Lake, Minn., wasted no time in coming forward today to claim his share of a whopping $448 million Powerball jackpot. “It’s crazy,” White said at a news conference this afternoon in Minneapolis. “I’ve gone through this in my head so many times and now it’s coming true.” White, 45, who works for an electrical contractor, is one of three winners and will split the jackpot, one of the largest in lottery history. Two winning ticket holders in New Jersey have not yet come forward. White said he didn’t check his ticket until his girlfriend, Kim VanReese, 45, called him this morning at his office to let him know there had been a winner in Minnesota. White told VanReese he was too busy and would check his tickets later; however, his interest was piqued when she said the Powerball was 32, which he remembered he had on two of his five quick-pick tickets. With VanReese on the line, he checked the winning numbers and discovered he had hit the jackpot. I said, ‘I have to call you back later,’” he said. “I think I had 10 people verify [the ticket] before I

Powerball winner Paul White collecting his cheque left the office.” Lottery officials said he opted to the cash payout and was presented today with a pre-tax check for $149.4 million. White, who has a 16-year-old son and a 14-yearold daughter from a previous marriage, said there was now “pressure off my shoulders” for paying for his childrens’ college education. He was joined at the news conference today with his boss at Elliott Contracting. “He started the day my boss and will end the day my chauffeur,” joked White, who said he and his boss had been friends long before they started working together.

Beyonce hairstylist reveals weavewearing singer possessed REAL flowing tresses before pixie crop

I

t was thought that before she revealed her new pixie hairdo on Wednesday she had merely just removed her extensions or weave and trimmed the remaining tresses into a crop style. But Beyonce’s hairstylist has now spoken out about the singer’s shock new look, revealing that she actually cut off a fair amount of her natural hair. Kim Kimble, Beyoncé’s longtime stylist, says that the 32-year-old was previously the proud owner of real ‘thick long’ locks. ‘She had great, thick long hair, which she cut off because she’s ready to make a statement. It’s a great [one] to make: I’m beautiful, sexy, bold and I can do it all,’ Kimble told People magazine. ‘She’s the perfect model for that: A working woman, mom, superstar, businesswoman. She’s powerful in herself. ‘ Kimble, who also owns her own hair salon, Kimble Hair Studio in Los Angeles, says that when she first saw the Instagram image of Beyonce on Wednesday night she became both shocked and emotional. She says she knows how hard it is for the Irreplaceable star to grow her hair back. ‘I got a little teary eyed! I’ve been working for her so long, she has this beautiful long hair and it’s hard to grow hair out,’ she told the magazine.

Kimble says that she too might take a cue from the international superstar who often spawns trends around the world. ‘I feel like it’s my hair, I work so much with her. I feel a little emotional but excited for her too. Maybe I’ll cut my hair off now. Short hair, don’t care!’ she exclaimed to the magazine. This weekend Beyonce and Kimble are shooting a video together and now the sought after stylist says she will have to come up with a brand new concept after originally planning something around the mother-of-one’s usual long locks. ‘I had a whole plan laid out … I wanted to do a retro ‘50s type of hair. I feel like there’s going to be a meeting soon!’ she told People magazine. ‘It won’t be the long, wavy, typical hair, but I’m really excited to do something different. No matter what, she knows I’ll give her what she wants!’

“I’m not going to be one of those people who says I’m going to keep working. I’m never going to work for someone again,” he said. However he did say he wanted to tie up some loose ends at work. Among the splurges White is planning with his windfall are a vacation and a new car. He said he also plans to share his wealth with his parents. His father is 80 years old and his mother, Betty White, is 77, he said. “Imagine what it’s like to say, ‘Go pick up your own car, go pick out your own house, whatever you want.’ It’s amazing,” he said. White said he plans to buy his dad back the first car he owned in 1963, which his father has kept a cherished photo of over the years. He joked that at a recent family gathering to celebrate his father’s birthday, he and his siblings played a game with hypothetical questions that included whose financial plan was to “win the lottery.” “Everyone picked me,” White said, laughing. “Who’s right now?” The winning numbers in Wednesday’s drawing were 58-5-25-59-30 and powerball 32. The store where White purchased the winning ticket, Holiday, in Ham Lake, will receive a $50,000 bonus, according to lottery officials.

MEXICO DRUG KINGPIN CARO QUINTERO ORDERED RELEASED

M

EXICO CITY -- A Mexican court on Friday ordered the release of infamous drug lord Rafael Caro Quintero after 28 years in prison, overturning his conviction for the 1985 kidnap and killing of a U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration agent. The brutal murder marked a low point in U.S.-Mexico relations. The court threw out Caro Quintero’s 40-year sentence for the murder of Enrique Camarena, ruling he was improperly tried in a federal court for a crime that should have been treated as a state offense. A court official who was not authorized to speak on the record said that Caro Quintero would be released because he had already served his time on other charges. The 61-year-old Caro Quintero is considered the grandfather of Mexican drug trafficking. He established a powerful cartel based in the northwestern Mexican state of Sinaloa that later split into some of Mexico’s largest cartels, including the Sinaloa and Juarez cartels. Mexico’s relations with Washington were damaged when Caro Quintero ordered Camarena kidnapped, tortured and killed, purportedly because he was angry about a raid on a 220acre (89-hectare) marijuana plantation in central Mexico named “Rancho Bufalo” - Buffalo Ranch - that was seized

by Mexican authorities at Camarena’s insistence. The raid netted up to five tons of marijuana and cost Caro Quintero and his colleagues an estimated $8 billion in lost sales. Camarena was kidnapped on Feb. 7, 1985, in Guadalajara, the capital of Jalisco state and a major drug trafficking center. His body and that of his Mexican pilot, both showing signs of torture, were found a month later, buried in shallow graves. American officials accused their Mexican counterparts of letting Camarena’s killers get away. Caro Quintero was eventually hunted down in Costa Rica. At one point, U.S. Customs agents almost blocked the U.S. border with Mexico, slowing incoming traffic to a standstill while conducting searches of all Mexicans trying to enter the United States. Camarena’s fellow U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration agents consider him a hero in the war against drug trafficking and the El Paso Intelligence Center, where U.S. federal agencies collect information about Mexican drug barons, is named after him. Caro Quintero is said to have pioneered links between Colombian cocaine cartels and the Mexican smugglers who transport their drugs into the United States.

Obama’s Moscow visit is called off, and not just because of Snowden W

ASHINGTON — The Edward Snowden case may have been the last straw, but the White House decision to cancel a Moscow summit next month came after President Obama decided the meeting was unlikely to resolve any of the issues increasing tension between the countries. The diplomatic snub comes six days after Russia granted temporary asylum to Snowden, a former intelligence agency contractor who leaked information on classified surveillance programs and fled, eventually landing in Moscow. Obama has repeatedly called on Russia to return him to the United States to face prosecution. But Snowden is not the only source of trouble in the U.S.-Russia relationship. The White House, after an unproductive start during Obama’s first term, had crafted an approach to Russia that included a new push for nuclear arms reductions and a joint effort to resolve the civil war in Syria. Both went nowhere. “Major issues were not teed up to make significant progress on the level of a president-to-president summit,” State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said. “That wasn’t a constructive step to take at this point.” Obama expressed his frustration with Russia

and its president, Vladimir Putin, on “The Tonight Show With Jay Leno” on Tuesday. “There have been times where they slip back into Cold War thinking and a Cold War mentality,” he said. “And what I consistently say to them, and what I say to President Putin, is that’s the past and we’ve got to think about the future, and there’s no reason why we shouldn’t be able to cooperate more effectively than we do.” White House Press Secretary Jay Carney, who announced the decision, cited lack of progress on several issues. “We believe it would be more constructive to postpone the summit until we have more results from our shared agenda,” he said in a statement. “Russia’s disappointing decision to grant Edward Snowden temporary asylum was also a factor that we considered in assessing the current state of our bilateral relationship.” Obama made a number of diplomatic gestures to the Russian leader this year, but received a chilly response. This spring, Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel announced what Washington saw as a concession on missile defense deployment, but the Russians dismissed the move as no concession at all. A letter from Obama to Putin, hand-delivered in April by National Security Advisor Tom

George Bush recovering from heart surgery I F

ormer president George W. Bush is in “high spirits” after heart surgery Tuesday morning, his office said. During a physical examination Monday, doctors found a blockage in an artery of the former president’s heart, said Bush spokesman Freddy Ford. “At the recommendation of his doctors, President Bush agreed to have a stent placed to open the blockage,” Ford said. The procedure at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital in Dallas went off “without complication” early Tuesday, Ford said. The news caught the political world by surprise. Bush was among the most physically active of presidents, with frequent exercise that ranged from early morning workouts to bike rides. Since leaving office, he has hosted an annual 100-kilometer mountain bike ride with wounded troops, the most recent in May near Waco. The former president is scheduled to host a golf tournament with wounded warriors in late September, and aides said his plans would not change. Bush, 67, is scheduled to return home Wednesday and “resume his normal schedule on Thursday,” Ford said. Long-time Bush aide Karen Hughes said the former president sent an e-mail to family and friends about his situation. Hughes said she has not yet spoken to her former boss, but “every word that I have is that he is doing great” and back to his “usual, feisty self.” Asked if the heart procedure would slow him down, Hughes said: “Are you

George W Bush kidding? He’s already talking resuming a normal schedule the day after tomorrow.” Supportive notes poured in across the Web. “Prayers to President George W. Bush for a fast recovery,” tweeted Republican Party Chairman Reince Priebus. The former president’s daughter, Jenna Bush Hager, tweeted: “Thanks for your prayers for my dear Dad. He’s well and we’re eager for him to return to Grandpa duty.” White House spokesman Jay Carney said President Obama has not spoken with his predecessor about the heart procedure, but wishes him well. Bush has received medical attention over the years, including treatment for scrapes and scratches from bicycle accidents in 2004 and 2005. In 2002, Bush briefly lost consciousness and hit his head after choking on a pretzel while watching a football game. Also in 2002, Bush had a colonoscopy and temporarily transferred political powers to Vice President Cheney. Lawrence Phillips, a cardiologist with the Langone Medical Center at New York University, said even people who look healthy can have hidden heart problems. They key is to look for symptoms like shortness of breath

Donilon, did nothing to warm relations. And in June, Moscow brushed off Obama’s public call in a speech at Berlin’s Brandenburg Gate for Russia to join the United States to make deep cuts in their deployed strategic U.S. nuclear warheads. Andrew Weiss, vice president for studies at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and a former Russia expert on President Clinton’s National Security Council staff, said Putin sees a political advantage domestically in opposing the United States. “So the question is, is it worth chasing after them?” Weiss said. “It’s not in this circumstance. That’s what’s driving these decisions, as much as” the Snowden case. Obama will still travel to Russia in September for the Group of 20 summit in St. Petersburg, but he and Putin won’t put their lack of rapport back on display. When they last met one-on-one, in June, they exchanged awkward jokes through clenched teeth. “The U.S. president is still coming to St. Petersburg, but saves himself another uneasy and rather useless encounter with the Russian leader,” said Lilia Shevtsova, a senior researcher with the Moscow Carnegie Center.

US ORDERS DIPLOMATS OUT OF PAKISTAN

SLAMABAD -- The U.S. has warned Americans not to travel to Pakistan and evacuated most government personnel from the country’s second largest city because of a threat to the consulate there, a U.S. official said Friday, the latest example of the danger facing diplomats operating in volatile parts of the Muslim world. The action came amid a flurry of deadly militant attacks in Pakistan. It also followed an al-Qaida threat to U.S. diplomatic posts in the Middle East and North Africa that American officials said was unrelated to the situation in Pakistan. U.S. consulates have been attacked previously in different parts of Pakistan, and Washington is still scarred by the memory of the attack last year on a diplomatic post in Benghazi, Libya, that killed U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans. The U.S. is shifting nonessential staff from the eastern Pakistani city of Lahore to the capital, Islamabad, after a specific threat to the consulate there, said U.S. Embassy spokeswoman Meghan Gregonis. Emergency personnel will stay in Lahore, and embassy officials do not know when the consulate will reopen, she said. “We received information regarding a threat to the consulate,” said Gregonis. “As a precautionary measure, we are undertaking a drawdown of all except emergency personnel.” She did not provide any details on the nature of the threat or the evacuation of U.S. personnel, including exactly when it occurred. The consulate in Lahore was already scheduled to be closed for the Muslim holiday of Eid al-Fitr from Thursday through Sunday. The Pakistani Taliban carried out a car bomb and grenade attack against

the U.S. consulate in the northwest Pakistani city of Peshawar in 2010 that killed four Pakistanis. The consulate in the southern city of Karachi has also been attacked several times. The personnel drawdown at the Lahore consulate was precautionary and wasn’t related to the recent closures of numerous U.S. diplomatic missions in the Muslim world because of a threat from al-Qaida, said two U.S. officials, speaking on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the order. Earlier this week, 19 U.S. diplomatic outposts in 16 countries in the Middle East and Africa were closed to the public through Saturday and nonessential personnel were evacuated from the U.S. Embassy in Yemen after U.S. intelligence officials said they had intercepted a recent message from al-Qaida’s top leader, Ayman al-Zawahiri, about plans for a major terror attack. None of the consulates in Pakistan or the U.S. Embassy in Islamabad were affected by the earlier closures. On Thursday, the State Department advised U.S. citizens not to travel to Pakistan, saying the presence of several foreign and indigenous terrorist groups posed a potential danger. The country has faced a bloody insurgency by the Pakistani Taliban and their allies in recent years that has killed over 40,000 civilians and security personnel, and is also believed to be home base for al-Zawahiri, although his exact whereabouts are unknown. Al-Qaida’s founder, Osama bin Laden, was killed in a raid by U.S. commandos in the Pakistani city of Abbottabad, about a two hour drive north of Islamabad.

Opposition challenges election results in Zimbabwe Z

imbabwe’s Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) challenged President Robert Mugabe’s landslide re-election in the top court on Friday, calling for a re-run of the July 31 vote it says was rigged. Lawyers for the MDC, which is led by Mugabe’s defeated rival Morgan Tsvangirai, filed papers with the Constitutional Court in Harare arguing the election should be annulled because of widespread alleged illegalities and intimidation of voters. Western governments have questioned the vote’s credibility. “We want a fresh election within 60 days. The prayer that we also seek is to declare the election null and void,” MDC spokesman Douglas Mwonzora told journalists outside the court. Zimbabwe’s electoral commission announced last weekend that Mugabe, Africa’s oldest leader at 89, beat Tsvangirai with just over 61 percent of the votes against his rival’s nearly 34 percent. The outcome extends for five more years Mugabe’s 33-year rule in the southern African state once known as Rhodesia. Zimbabwe’s constitution says the court must rule on the case within 14 days. Analysts predict

the MDC legal challenge is unlikely to prosper because they say Mugabe’s ZANU-PF party dominates the judiciary and state institutions. Mwonzora said the MDC was also preparing a legal challenge against the two-thirds majority in parliament won by ZANU-PF. “Some High Court judges could back up MDC claims to seats in specific constituencies, but ZANU-PF’s control of the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission and the Constitutional Court make any re-run very unlikely,” Mark Rosenberg, senior Africa analyst for the Eurasia Group, wrote in a briefing note this week. Another defeated presidential contender, Welshman Ncube, called the MDC challenge futile. Tsvangirai was not present in court and the filing of the papers was a low-key event, with no public demonstration by MDC followers to back it. There was no visible police presence, but workers and soldiers peeped out through windows from the Zimbabwe Defence Forces headquarters across the road. ZANU-PF has denied any vote-rigging in the election, which Tsvangirai, who had served as Mugabe’s prime minister in a fractious unity gov-

ernment, has dismissed as a “huge fraud” and a “coup by ballot”. “The person on trial here is not the MDC but Mr. Mugabe. Zimbabweans expect nothing but justice,” Mwonzora said. Mugabe will be sworn in only after the case is decided. While election observers from the African Union and the Southern African Development Community (SADC) broadly approved the presidential and parliamentary elections as orderly and free, the vote has been met with serious scepticism from the West. The United States, which maintains sanctions against Mugabe, has said it does not believe his re-election was credible. The European Union, which has been looking at easing sanctions, has also expressed concerns over alleged serious flaws in the vote. “DUPLICATED VOTERS NAMES” In its arguments to the court seeking a re-run and detailing irregularities in the July 31 vote, the MDC alleged hundreds of thousands of voters were turned away, and that the voters’ roll was flawed, containing at least 870,000 duplicated names.

Swiss apologise for encounter Oprah calls racist G

ENEVA — It’s a glamorous playground of the rich and famous, filled with glitterati from princes to movie stars. It’s also a land with a sometimes uneasy relationship with foreigners — especially when they aren’t white. Billionaire media mogul Oprah Winfrey says she ran into Swiss racism when a clerk at Trois Pommes, a pricey Zurich boutique, refused to show her a black handbag, telling one of the world’s richest women that she “will not be able to afford” the $38,000 price tag. Winfrey earned $77 million in the year ending in June, according to Forbes magazine.

“She said: ‘No, no, no, you don’t want to see that one. You want to see this one. Because that one will cost too much; you will not be able to afford that,’” Winfrey, appearing on the U.S. television program “Entertainment Tonight,” quoted the clerk as saying. “And I said, ‘Well, I did really want to see that one.’ And she refused to get it.” Swiss tourism officials and the boutique owner were quick to offer apologies on Friday. “We are very sorry for what happened to her, of course, because we think all of our guests and clients should be treated respectfully, in a professional way,” Daniela Baer, a spokeswoman for the Swiss tourism office, told The Associated Press.

The tourism office also posted an apology on Twitter, saying “this person acted terribly wrong.” Boutique owner Trudie Goetz told the BBC that an assistant had shown Winfrey several other items before the “misunderstanding.” The newspaper Blick described the bag as a crocodile-leather Tom Ford design named for actress Jennifer Aniston, a fan of the American designer. It quoted Goetz as saying the bag was priced at 35,000 Swiss francs. “I have to admit that the employee is Italian. Of course, she speaks English, but not as well as her mother tongue,” Goetz said in a video interview on Blick’s website. “It was a real misunderstanding.” Winfrey was in Switzerland to attend the wedding of her longtime friend Tina Turner, who has lived in Zurich for many years and has been quoted saying how much she enjoys living among the Swiss. Turner was granted a passport earlier this year, a process that typically takes years. About 23 percent of Switzerland’s 8 million residents are non-Swiss, and the country earned more than $39 billion from tourism in 2011. But Swiss authorities acknowledge that foreigners can encounter discrimination. Last year, a government-appointed commission reported that immigrants and “people who visit Switzerland as tourists or who seek asylum here, and people of a different skin color” can encounter “xenophobia and racism in certain areas of life.” The nationalistic Swiss People’s Party, which has the largest number of seats in the federal parliament, has won support through claims that immigrants can bring crime and social problems to a country that has been an oasis of stability even in Europe’s darkest days.

In recent years, the People’s Party has successfully campaigned to ban the construction of minarets in a country that has about 400,000 Muslims, and to

tighten the country’s asylum law. Swiss lawmakers also narrowly rejected a proposal to ban face-covering veils worn by some Muslim women in public spaces.

Florida murder suspect allegedly posts photo of dead wife on Facebook T

he once-solid lines between the private and public continued to blur on Friday after a South Florida man posted on Facebook what he said was a photograph of his dead wife’s body, then turned himself into authorities. Derek Medina, 31, was arraigned on a charge of first-degree murder on Friday, a Miami-Dade police spokeswoman told the Los Angeles Times. Medina is charged with fatally shooting his wife, Jennifer Alfonso, in the couple’s home in South Miami on Thursday morning. Medina then drove to the South Miami Police Department and surrendered. When police searched the home, Alfonso’s 10-year-old daughter was found unharmed, police said. While tragic, the incident, which began as a domestic argument, is all too common in almost every police jurisdiction. What was different, however, was that Medina took time to share his feelings on Facebook. “Im going to prison or death sentence for killing my wife love you guys, miss you guys takecare Facebook people you will see me in the news,” stated a Thursday morning post on Derek Medina’s Facebook page. The page has since been taken down, though copies of the post and even the picture of the dead woman went out on the Web. Through much of early history there was no distinction between the public and private, but that changed by the time of the Protestant Refor-

mation and accelerated through the technological advances that came with the Industrial Revolution. Whole schools of thought, politics and law are still wrestling with questions devoted to finding the line between personal privacy and governmental action. In the United States, for example, such key issues as abortion rights hinge on that distinction, and rights questions inform such issues as drone attacks and governmental surveillance of private communications. The recent wave of technological change, if anything, have accelerated the discussion even as more issues that once remained hidden have bubbled through the Web. For example, in June, a Utah man issued status updates on Facebook during a police siege. Just days ago, a Colorado rapper posted a song he had recorded chronicling his version of events during a police raid. He then posted his ad hoc artistic endeavor on YouTube. NPR radio journalist Scott Simon famously posted his mother’s dying days -what once would have been a private agony -- on Twitter and won acclaim and followers. The events in Florida and the posting of the picture of the body appear to be a first. Facebook officials wouldn’t comment on the incident, except in a statement emailed to reporters. “The content was reported to us,” a Facebook spokesperson stated. “We took action on the profile — removing the content and disabling the profile, and we reached out to law enforce-

Japan unveils largest warship since World War II C Y

OKOHAMA, Japan-- Japan on Tuesday unveiled its biggest warship since World War II, a huge flat-top destroyer that has raised eyebrows in China and elsewhere because it bears a strong resemblance to a conventional aircraft carrier. The ship, which has a flight deck that is nearly 250 meters (820 feet) long, is designed to carry up to 14 helicopters. Japanese officials say it will be used in national defense — particularly in anti-submarine warfare and border-area surveillance missions — and to bolster the nation’s ability to transport personnel and supplies in response to large-scale natural disasters, like the devastating earthquake and tsunami in 2011. Though the ship — dubbed “Izumo” — has been in the works since 2009, its unveiling comes as Japan and China are locked in a dispute over several small islands located between southern Japan and Taiwan. For months, ships from both countries have been conducting patrols around the isles, called the Senkaku in Japan and the Diaoyutai in China. The tensions over the islands, along with China’s heavy spending on defense and military modernization, have heightened calls in Japan for beefed-up naval and air forces. China recently be-

gan operating an aircraft carrier that it refurbished after purchasing from Russia, and is reportedly moving forward with the construction of another that is domestically built. Japan, China and Taiwan all claim the islands. Though technically a destroyer, some experts believe the new Japanese ship could potentially be used in the future to launch fighter jets or other aircraft that have the ability to take off vertically. That would be a departure for Japan, which has one of the best equipped and best trained naval forces in the Pacific but which has not sought to build aircraft carriers of its own because of constitutional restrictions that limit its military forces to a defensive role. Japan says it has no plans to use the ship in that manner. The Izumo does not have catapults for launching fighters, nor does it have a “ski-jump” ramp on its flight deck for fixed-wing aircraft launches.

ment. We take action on all content that violates our terms, which are clearly laid out on our site.” Police would not discuss the motive for the shooting, which, according to an affidavit, Medina said started as a heated domestic quarrel in the couple’s upstairs bedroom. Medina and the woman argued; then the wife left the bedroom, returning later to say she was leaving him. He said he went downstairs and confronted her in the kitchen, when she began punching him. He said he then went back upstairs to get his gun and confronted her again, at which time she grabbed a knife, he told police. Medina said he took away the knife and put it in a drawer. But then Alfonso began punching him again, so Medina shot her several times, according to the affidavit. The first Facebook post went out about 11:11 a.m. The post said that his wife was punching him and that he wasn’t going to stand any more abuse. The second and last post — also at 11:11 a.m. and titled “RIP Jennifer Alfonso” — was a gruesome photograph showing a woman in black leotards slumped on the floor. The photo was up for more than five hours before Facebook removed the page late Thursday afternoon. Police declined comment on the Facebook posts.

US DEFENSE LAWYERS TO SEEK ACCESS TO DEA HIDDEN INTELLIGENCE EVIDENCE

riminal defense lawyers are challenging a U.S. government practice of hiding the tips that led to some drug investigations, information that the lawyers say is essential to fair trials in U.S. courts. The practice of creating an alternate investigative trail to hide how a case began - what federal agents call “parallel construction” - has never been thoroughly tested in court, lawyers and law professors said in interviews this week. Internal training documents reported by Reuters this week instruct agents not to reveal information they get from a unit of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, but instead to recreate the same information by other means. A similar set of instructions was included in an IRS manual in 2005 and 2006, Reuters reported. The DEA unit, known as the Special Operations Division, or SOD, receives intelligence from intercepts, wiretaps, informants and phone records, and funnels tips to other law enforcement agencies, the documents said. Some but not all of the information is classified. In interviews, at least a dozen current or former agents said they used “parallel construction,” often by pretending that an investigation began with what appeared to be a routine traffic stop, when the true origin was actually a tip from SOD. Defense lawyers said that by hiding the existence of the information,

the government is violating a defendant’s constitutional right to view potentially exculpatory evidence that suggests witness bias, entrapment or innocence. “It certainly can’t be that the agents can make up a ‘parallel construction,’ a made-up tale, in court documents, testimony before the grand jury or a judge, without disclosure to a court,” said Jim Wyda, the federal public defender in Maryland, in an email. “This is going to result in a lot of litigation, for a long time.” LEGAL ACTION AHEAD Kenneth Bailey, who defends drug cases in Sandusky, Ohio, said his firm was drafting new motions in light of the documents made public by Reuters. “Evidence which could prove my clients’ innocence is being intentionally concealed,” Bailey said. “This is why criminal defense lawyers are working so hard to protect the (U.S.) Constitution, because the government is working so hard to destroy it.” The Justice Department is reviewing the practice of parallel construction, and two high-profile Republican congressmen have raised questions about it. DEA officials who defended the program on condition of anonymity said the practice was legal - and necessary to protect confidential sources and investigative methods. The Special Operations Division has used it virtually every day since the 1990s, they said.

Performing against the odds

BY SIR RONALD SANDERS

A

few days ago the BBC Television World Service interviewed one of the wealthiest persons in China. She will be 48 years old next month and her assets are worth US$3.6 billion. Zhang Xin was born into abject poverty, began working in a sweatshop, lived in a single-room with her mother in Hong Kong, saved from her paltry earnings to buy a ticket to the United Kingdom where she took secretarial classes while working. Then she attended my alma mater, Sussex University, where she studied Economics before going on to Cambridge University to get a Master’s degree in Development Economics. In 1995 she set up what is now the largest property development company in China of which she is the Chief Executive Officer. When asked what she believes was the key to her success, her answer was unequivocal – education. That is an answer that would be given by the vast majority of successful persons from the Caribbean in almost every subject. Education liberated tens of thousands of ambitious and hard-working Caribbean people from poverty and allowed them to contribute to the development not only of themselves and their countries but also to other countries where many migrated. More than 60 per cent of the tertiary-educated people of the Caribbean live in Western industrialised nations. All this is germane to the University of the West Indies (UWI) which is the premier institution for higher learning in the Caribbean and which, for 65 years this year, has been producing graduates in a variety of fields. UWI remains crucial to the continued liberation and prosperity of Caribbean people and Caribbean economies through education. But, the institution lacks the support it needs from governments and the Caribbean private sector (including foreign-owned financial institutions that have profited hugely in the region) if it is to continue to serve the 16 Caribbean territories from which its student body comes. UWI is one of the few institutions that have sustained themselves over the last decade. It has done so despite the fact that a number of governments of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) have failed to honour their payment obligations, particularly in the last few years. Reports indicate that UWI is now owed in excess of US$100 million – a less resilient in-

stitution would have collapsed under such a heavy burden of non-payment. It is generally appreciated that the economies of many of the Caribbean countries are in decline. But their governments’ decision not to pay the University is short-sighted. For every Caribbean country – now more than ever – requires educated persons to be well trained, to be entrepreneurial and innovative, and to contribute their skills to economic recovery and growth. UWI deserves praise for its foresight in taking initiatives to reduce dependence on governments including by vigorously pursuing grants and development funds from international agencies. Examples of such external assistance are a CDA$20 million grant from the Canadian International Development Agency to UWI’s Open Campus to increase the number and diversity of distance education progammes; and several grants from the European Union (EU) for a variety of projects relevant to Caribbean development. As a regional University, UWI has won more grants from the EU than any University in the 79-nation African, Caribbean and Pacific group. In its areas of research, despite the fact that it has suffered from a lack of funding from the governments whose countries it serves, UWI has done extremely well to raise money from external sources and gain international standing for research in some topics such as sustainable development in small island states, early childhood development, and select areas in Law, Marine and Environmental studies. It is the University’s good reputation, established over many years, that has made it suitable to donors for assistance. To varying degrees, campuses of UWI have also introduced commercial operations as a means of earning revenue. For all these initiatives, UWI deserves the appreciation of the Caribbean people. The University is a light shining in the gloom of Caribbean integration; its sustained success can help to dispel the darkness. Funding UWI and higher education are now critical issues. For instance, if the University is to generate impactful cutting edge research and innovation especially in science, its laboratories need more resources to upgrade them. The leadership of the University are also well aware that, without adequate funding, the stock of trained and qualified persons, who can help to drag Caribbean countries back from

the backwater into which many of them are slithering, will decline. It is significant that, in the last seven years, applications to UWI have grown from 17,000 to 30,000 and enrollment has grown from 27,000 to more than 40,000. There is, therefore, a thirst for higher education which – if quenched by the University – can serve the Caribbean well. It has to be acknowledged that governments cannot fund every person who wants to pursue higher education. Some of the costs will have to be shared by students as happens in many other parts of the world. But, this should not be an excuse for governments not to meet their financial obligations to the UWI. A formula should be agreed for paying-up past dues and for sharing costs between governments and students in the future. Priorities should also be estab-

lished for training in the specialties that Caribbean countries require for their economies to grow and compete globally. UWI has itself set out a thoughtful strategic plan for 2012-2017. It is a plan that recognizes the University’s strengths, weaknesses, threats and opportunities. But the plan’s effective implementation is hobbled by the debts owed to it. If the University is to continue to produce graduates to meet the Caribbean’s economic development needs and satisfy the ambitions of the region’s people, education has to be a priority for governments and the private sector. They both have to give UWI the committed support it needs. The issue is not academic, it is practical.

The crackdown on bank misbehavior masks a troubling reality BY BETHANY MCLEAN

E

x Goldman Trader Found Guilty for Misleading Investors.” “Bond Deal Draws Fine for UBS.” “JPMorgan Settles Electricity Manipulation Case for $410 million.” “Deutsche Bank Net Profit Halves on Charge For Potential Legal Costs.” “US Sues Bank of America Over Mortgage Securities.” “Senate Opens Probe of Banks’ Commodities Businesses.” “US Regulators Find Evidence of Banks Fixing Derivatives Rates.” “Goldman Sachs Sued for Allegedly Inflating Aluminum Prices.” So goes a sampling of headlines about the banking industry from the past week — yes, just one week. We seem to be living in an era where bankers can do no right. I can’t put it any better than a smart hedge fund friend of mine, who upon reading the news about the $410 million that JPMorgan paid to make allegations that it manipulated energy markets go away, sent me an email. “I am a bank friendly type,” he said. But, he added, in typically terse trader talk, “Something structurally amiss when so much financial activity is borderline.” By one measurement, the problem has gotten worse by an order of magnitude in recent years. In the annual letter he writes to shareholders, Robert Wilmers, the chairman and CEO of M&T Bank, has started keeping track of the fines, sanctions and legal awards levied against the “Big Six” bank holding companies. In 2011, those penalties were $13.9 billion. In 2012, they more than doubled to $29.3 billion. Wilmers writes that the past two years represent the majority of the cumulative $52 billion in charges, from 236 separate actions in eight countries, over the past 11 years. Wilmers also cites a study done by

M&T, according to which the top six banks have been cited 1,150 times by the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times in articles about their improper activities. Perhaps not surprisingly, the biggest bank, JPMorgan, accounts for a sizable chunk of all this. According to a report by Josh Rosner, a managing director at independent research consultancy Graham Fisher & Co, JPMorgan has paid $8.5 billion in fines between 2009 and 2012, or about 12 percent of its net income over that period. The results aren’t in for 2013 yet, but so far, the tune is more of the same. In addition to all of last week’s news, there’s the $8.5 billion that 13 banks agreed to pay to address allegations of robo-signing. Barclays, while not a “Big Six” bank, was also ordered to pay $488 million by FERC; that bank, along with RBS and UBS, has also agreed to pay a combined settlement that is well over $1 billion to settle charges that they manipulated the key interest rate called Libor. How you explain those numbers depends on where you sit. In his letter, Wilmers embraces the argument that a predisposition to wrongdoing is now built into the system, in part because of the decline of traditional banking and the merger of commercial and investment banking. Money center banks, which are desperate to pump up their profits, have increasingly invested in things they know nothing about, whether it be emerging market debt or subprime mortgages. At the same time, Wall Street firms have pushed the envelope in developing newfangled ways for their customers to lose money. (Oops — I meant newfangled ways to help “markets remain efficient and liquid.”) Then, commercial banks have used their balance sheets to inject steroids into Wall

Street’s products. Or as Wilmers writes, “One’s cash from deposits and the other’s creativity led to a symbiotic relationship, enhanced by the closeness of geography.” Another way to think about this is that the combination of investment and commercial banking has brought a tidal wave of government-backed money to businesses that should be purely risk-based. There’s too much money chasing too little return, and the winner takes all. Toss in some rules that are oftentimes too stupid to be respected, therefore inviting gaming, and what do you expect? Banks are constantly going to be right up against the line of wrongdoing, if not over it. Or as my friend writes, “You know it is because some combination of competition, over capacity, resource misallocation, too much money dangled too easily in front of kids. Leads to cutthroat, childish and sometimes borderline behavior.” If you’re a regulator, the story is simpler. You’ve gotten tired of reading that you kowtow to your banking clients. (Hell hath no fury like a regulator scorned.) You know you screwed up in the financial crisis, or in FERC’s case, back in the Enron years. Funding is tight. There’s a need and a desire to show that you’re an enforcer. That said, you don’t want to risk putting your clients out of business. So you don’t charge individuals, and you allow banks to neither admit nor deny guilt, and shareholders pay the big fines. Everyone seems happy. Of course, if you’re a bank, you think the numbers are B.S. You think you’ve been unfairly blamed for the financial crisis, that the spate of enforcement actions are to some degree political, and that regulators have gone wild. They’ve lost their collaborative attitude. But because your overseers allow you to neither admit nor deny guilt, as well as to spend shareholders’ money to make the problem go away — and not incidentally, the fines don’t appear to impact executive compensation — pay you do. (See Goldman Sachs, Abacus.) There’s probably some truth to all these points of view. Look at JPMorgan’s recent settlement with FERC. Banks are in the energy business (pause to think about how weird that is) thanks in part to rulings by the Federal Reserve, which has always believed, often mistakenly, that allowing banks new ways to make money would strengthen the system. Less-regulated investment banks like Goldman Sachs, which turned into bank holding companies during the financial crisis, have been trading energy for a long time. But can today’s banks be trusted with playing a role in what we all pay for power? (This is all now in flux.) As for the regulator, there’s no question that FERC, which was humiliated by the events in California at the turn of the century, is determined to be more aggressive. JPMorgan, for its part, wants to make money. There’s nothing wrong with that. But in a highly competitive, rules-driven

world, especially when the rules seem to invite bad behavior, that can lead to problems. As blogger Matt Levine put it, “FERC built a terrible box, and the box had some buttons that were labeled ‘push here for money,’ and JPMorgan pushed them and got money.” According to newspaper reports, FERC originally wanted around $1 billion in fines and the traders’ heads on a platter. In the end, it was business as usual: JPMorgan paid about half that, no individual traders were charged, and the firm didn’t have to admit or deny any guilt. On the surface, everyone seems willing to live with the current state of affairs. But the apparent calm masks how seriously messed up this all is. Look again at the JPMorgan settlement. According to the New York Times, FERC accused the bank of “turning money-losing power plants into powerful profits centers,” and alleged that a senior executive gave “false and misleading statements under oath.” But the end result — a mere fine — is totally out of synch with that damning language. This makes people cynical about the system. How can you have these apparently bad actors be somehow immune from any serious repercussions? It “smells of cronyism, which is third world stuff,” writes another friend of mine, who, by the way, is not an Occupy Wall Street type, but rather a somewhat buttoned down professional investor. “Scares me.” Supporters of the banks offer an easy answer to the lack of charges (and it might occasionally be true), which is that the actions aren’t actually that bad. The whole thing is just a show, meant to make the regulators look tough and capable and the banks look contrite. But that’s not OK either, because a functioning economy needs a functioning financial system, one in which people have a basic degree of trust. A constant flood of news about supposed malfeasance does not inspire trust. In a recent piece in the New York Review of Books, former Federal Reserve chair Paul Volcker weighed in on the incredibly slow implementation of financial reform. “The present overlaps and loopholes in Dodd-Frank and other regulations provide a wonderful obstacle course that plays into the hands of lobbyists resisting change,” he wrote. “The end result is to undercut the market need for clarity and the broader interest of citizens and taxpayers.” I worry that the end result of Volcker’s “wonderful obstacle course” will be a wonderful playground, chock full of badly designed buttons that banks can press to make money. The regulators will bring charges, no one will pay in any meaningful way, we’ll all get more and more cynical and distrustful, and the show will go on. That is, until all the banks press the buttons at the same time, at which point we’ll have another financial crisis. Come to think of it, maybe that wouldn’t be such a bad thing: It might inspire us to think about a financial system that actually makes sense.

Opposition leader in The Bahamas removed from Parliament by police

N

assau, The Bahamas -- The Bahamas House of Assembly’s morning session was halted on Wednesday when police officers, including two assistant commissioners, filed on to the chamber’s floor to forcibly remove leader of the opposition Dr Hubert Minnis from the premises after Speaker Dr Kendal Major suspended him for two sittings. According to the Nassau Guardian newspaper, this came after the Killarney MP and Free National Movement (FNM) leader refused to withdraw comments he made in mid-July in the House about Prime Minister Perry Christie’s relationship with fashion designer Peter Nygard, despite repeated orders from Major to do so. After he was ordered out of the House, Minnis remained defiant and stayed in his seat. The officers got into confrontations with several FNM MPs who tried to block access to Minnis. Three uniformed officers grabbed Montagu MP Richard Lightbourn by his arms and moved him away from where he stood in order to gain access to Minnis. A scuffle ensued as two officers tried to move around Lightbourn – who stood firm – in order to reach Minnis. Two other officers grabbed Central Grand Bahama MP Neko Grant as they tried to get close to Minnis too. This prompted an outcry from FNM deputy leader and Long Island MP Loretta Butler-Turner, who told police not to touch any opposition member. “Don’t put your hand on me or him. We will leave,” she said. “You all move. Don’t put your hand on any of us.” At one point Minnis dared the officers to move him.

Opposition leader Dr Hubert Minnis and deputy leader Loretta Butler-Turner protest being removed from Parliament by force. “See my tie. Drag me over. Pull me over,” he said to the officers, gesturing with his necktie. Assistant Commissioners of Police Leon Bethell and Stephen Seymour were among the group of officers who filed into the House to escort Minnis outside. Seven FNM MPs, with the exception of Central and South Abaco MP Edison Key, later left the debating chamber. However, the MPs clashed with police a second time when they tried to converge in the House Minority Room. Minnis held an impromptu press conference on the steps of the House flanked by the MPs who followed him out of the House and dozens of party supporters. Minnis said the Speaker’s actions were an affront to democracy. He added that he stood behind the statement he made about the prime minister and Nygard last month. “My belief, and hence my words, remain as on the first day they were uttered,” Minnis said. “The association of the prime minister and

ST KITTS OPPOSITION CALLS FOR CARIBBEAN INTERVENTION IN POLITICAL SITUATION

O

pposition legislators say they are concerned at the continued silence of Caribbean leaders to the ongoing political situation in St. Kitts-Nevis and are warning of possible violence in the future. Leader of the main opposition People’s Action Movement (PAM), Shawn Richards, told the Caribbean Media Corporation (CMC) that to date, none of the regional leaders had responded to their pleas to intervene in the current political stalemate, warning that neither the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) nor the sub-regional Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS) can afford to turn a blind eye to the situation. “It is unfortunate that one doesn’t hear any sort of urgings coming from these particular leaders throughout the region saying to the Prime Minister that what he is going is setting a bad example for democracy not only in St. Kitts-Nevis but throughout the rest of the region. “ We will continue to agitate politically if it means that we have to have more demonstra-

tions we will do so,” said Richards insisting that CARICOM or the OECS cannot argue they have no right to interfere in the internal affairs of St. Kitts and Nevis, since they are guardians of democracy in the region. He describes the political situation as tense and likely to worsen and that there have already been politically motivated acts of violence. “If things are to continue as they currently are we are not certain that that can be avoided. Already you have had a number of incidents because of the fact that tensions are high. You had a political meeting in my constituency in which someone’s windshield was smashed, tyres were slashed, the chairman of the Labour party and also the minister with responsibility for Health Marcella Liburd her vehicle was also damaged. “A candidate of the Labour Party had his vehicle damaged along with some other persons. Recently someone fired gunshots at the house of the Speaker of the National Assembly.

a number of his Cabinet colleagues with Peter Nygard has been judged by many as being most unseemly and outrageously inappropriate. “I continue to believe that the cozy relationship between Mr. Christie, his government and Mr Nygard is unhealthy for our democracy.” The Killarney MP also alleged that Dr Arthur Porter, former chairman of the government’s stem cell task force, was a financial backer of the PLP. Porter is in a Panama jail fighting extradition to Canada over fraud charges connected to a billion-dollar investment in Canada. Lightbourn said police treatment of the MPs was “unfortunate”. “I don’t think that I should have been subjected to what I was,” he said. “They tried to move me and force me away from where I was standing, so I resisted and we finally left without incident.” Major told reporters during the House lunch break that police would stop Minnis from entering the House until his suspension is up. “A sergeant appointed by the speaker will prevent any access by the member for Killarney for two consecutive sittings of Parliament,” Major said. When the House resumed, Prime Minister Perry Christie said the incident amazed him. “Having spent near 40 years in Parliament, and next year would be my 40th year in public life, I don’t think I’ve ever witnessed a display that makes no sense whatsoever,” he said. “I tried my best to understand what could have been the political motivation of the leader of the opposition.” The House resumed the morning session after the FNM MPs left. The stem cell bill was passed in the afternoon with the support of the governing side and Key.

American national sentenced to 165 years in jail for child sex tourism offences in Haiti M

IAMI– A 68-year-old American has been sentenced to 165 years in jail, followed by a lifetime of supervised release, after he was found guilty of child sex tourism offences in Haiti. Acting United States Assistant Attorney General Mythili Raman, said Matthew Andrew Carter, 68, also known as “William Charles Harcourt” and “Bill Carter” was sentenced by US District Judge Joan A. Lenard of the Southern District of Florida on Wednesday. Raman said that on February 28, a jury found Carter guilty of five counts of “traveling in foreign commerce” from the United States to Haiti “for the purpose of engaging in illicit sexual conduct with children” and one count of attempting to do so. “For 15 years, Matthew Carter, under the guise of serving as an international humanitarian, sexually abused more than 50 Haitian children. “He held himself out as a savior to vulnerable children in Haiti, but, in fact, cruelly forced those children to choose between poverty and submitting to repeated sexual abuse,” Raman said. He said child sex tourism is a heinous crime, and the sentence demonstrates the United States’ commitment to bringing the weight of justice on anyone who seeks to exploit “our most vulnerable citizens, wherever they reside”. US Attorney Wifredo A. Ferrer, of the Southern District of Florida said the sentence brings to a close a “horrific chapter in the lives of these victims. “While nothing can ever undo the abuse these victims endured

Matthew Andrew Carter throughout the years, we hope that today’s sentence restores them with some sense of confidence and trust, and satisfaction that justice has been served,” he added. US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Deputy Director Daniel Ragsdale said crimes against children are “some of the most heinous our agency investigates. “It is even more despicable that Mr. Carter used his position of trust to abuse children who relied on him

for care,” he said, adding that the sentence should serve as notice to other child predators. “We will find you, arrest you and make sure that you are prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.” According to court documents and evidence presented at trial, from 1995 to 2011, Carter resided at and operated the Morning Star Center near Port-au-Prince, the Haitian capital, prior to his arrest on May 8, 2011. The Morning Star Center was

US investors to use coconut water in energy drink

G

EORGETOWN, Guyana-The introduction of an energy drink with coconut water from Guyana as one of the key ingredients, is being conceptualised by American investors who met President Donald Ramotar on Wednesday. The product when manufactured will be sold to the high-end consumers in the United States using a marketing strategy to promote Guyana and the business of small coconut producers. The investors – George Papanastasatos and Marim Kinkladze, met President Ramotar and Allison Butters-Grant President and Chief Executive Officer of Global Connections Consultants Inc. “We definitely found the resources (in Guyana). It’s only a matter of building the right resourc-

es for us to get the right quantities and the right quality of coconut water,” Papanastasatos said. The investors are looking for the organically produced coconut water, which he said is the best selling in North America, even as the practice of applying chemicals in farming is well known. “It seems feasible and it seems that we are in the right path to make it happen relatively quickly. Luckily enough we have the right people to introduce us to the locals, Papanastasatos explained. Coconut was the key focus of a seminar earlier this year that was aimed at devising a 2013 plan to revitalise and develop the industry and aggressively advance the country’s agriculture diversification programme

a residential facility that provided shelter, food, clothing and school tuition to Haitian children. The children who lived at the Morning Star Center were from impoverished families that could not feed, educate or otherwise support their children, the Justice Department said. It said the evidence at trial showed that Carter ?specifically targeted children in need and preyed on their vulnerability.? Between 1995 and 2011, the Justice Department said Carter frequently traveled between the United States and Haiti “in order to raise funds from churches and donors for the continued operation of the center. “Carter sexually and physically abused the children in his care and custody at the center during this period of time,” it said. According to court documents and evidence presented at trial, Carter “used force to get these children to comply with his sexual demands and required the children to participate in sexual acts in order to receive food, remain at the center and/ or continue to receive school tuition payments.? During the trial, the Justice Department said 16 Haitian victims who resided at the Morning Star Center between 1995 and 2011 testified. Additionally, it said four witnesses testified that they were sexually abused by Carter in London during the 1970s. Carter previously was charged with and acquitted of charges related to the sexual abuse of children in London, Cairo and Winter Haven, Florida, the Justice Department said.

OSEAU, Dominica– The Dominica government has sought to defend the controversial economic citizenship programme and dismissed suggestions that potential investors were engaged in bribing ministers in order to achieve Dominican passports under the scheme. Attorney General Levi Peter told Parliament that contrary to the criticism of the programme under which Dominica citizenship is granted to individuals and families in exchange for an investment fee, the initiative is very transparent. “It is a well constructed and robust programme. It is a programme which even to this day persists with physical interviews of all ap-

plications. That is to say every applicant for economic citizenship has to present his or herself to an interview panel which comprises on many occasions myself and two other senior officials of government”. Peter said when he is not present, someone else represents the interest of the state, “the intention, the purpose, the exercise being to interview all those who seek citizenship by way of the economic citizenship programme”. Levi said he had heard stories of people “just apparently turn up, talk to some minister or individual, slip him a brown envelope and walk away with a passport is complete and utter rubbish.

University of the West Indies to offer course on reparation for Caribbean slavery T

he Mona campus of the University of the West Indies (UWI) is to offer a course on reparation, looking at the issue of compensation for slavery in the Caribbean. The course is being designed by lecturer in the Department of Government in Political Philosophy and Culture, Dr. Clinton Hutton, who said the curriculum will examine the argument for reparation within a historical context. Caribbean Community (CARICOM) leaders at their summit in Trinidad and Tobago in July, agreed to establish a committee under the chairmanship of the

Barbados Prime Minister Freundel Stuart to drive the issue. Suriname has already said it would instruct the councils of the Union of South American States to collect “all relevant information for Suriname and CARICOM” on the reparation matter. St. Vincent and the Grenadines Prime Minister Dr. Ralph Gonsalves said the Caribbean is demanding reparation from Europe for native genocide and African slavery. Hutton said that it is important to educate the Caribbean population about the issues of slavery and reparation, as many young people still do not see a

connection between themselves and their enslaved ancestors. “In other words, they are unable to feel empathy for their own ancestors,” he said, noting that the same lack of feeling displayed for our ancestors is the same that the Europeans had towards black people. Hutton said that during his lectures, some students have argued that the reason their foreparents were enslaved was because they were uneducated. He argued, however, that some of the people, who came across the Middle Passage, were state makers, scientists and highly skilled persons.

Shanique Myrie CCJ decision expected 4th October T

he long awaited Caribbean Court of Justice (CCJ) judgement in the Shanique Myrie case will be handed down on the 4th of October. A news release from the CCJ said the decision would be made by way of video conference at 10 a.m. Eastern Caribbean time from its Henry Street headquarters in Port of Spain Trinidad and Tobago. The Jamaican Shanique Myrie took her case against Barbados to the CCJ in its original jurisdiction, alleging that as a CARICOM national, she was subjected to inhumane and degrading treatment when she arrived at the Grantley Adams International Airport for a short visit on March 14, 2011. Myrie is asking the CCJ to pay her more than US$400 000 in punitive and moral damages. Myrie’s legal team led by Michelle Brown also wants the court to award special damages for what she went through. and costs, which could take the total judgment past Barbados $1 million. Brown is urging the regional court to make other declarations, orders and awards. For example, she wants the justices to declare that Barbados breached the right of her client to enter this country in pursuant of Article 45 of the Revised Treaty of Chaguaramas in conjunction with Articles 9, 12, 28 and 240 of the same

Shanique Myrie

Treaty and the 2007 CARICOM Heads of Government Conference decision, subjecting Myrie to inhumane treatment. Myrie’s legal counsel told the CCJ that the current case was about her client’s right to enter Barbaddos under the CARICOM decision of 2007. She also urged the court to make a declaration that the Barbodos breached the Treaty by discriminating against the claimant on the grounds of her nationality only, in denying her entry and subjecting her to inhumane treatment. Another request was for the judges to declare null and void this island’s decision to refuse Myrie entry. There are about another 14

points on which the claimant’s legal counsel has asked the CCJ to make declarations. According to a Trinidad Express Editorial the cross-Caribbean hearings of the Shanique Myrie case have given the Caribbean Court of Justice (CCJ) much-needed and well-deserved prominence as a forum where the average Caricom citizen can seek legal protection and redress. While the CCJ has had some impact on the life of the region, none of the cases that have come before it has excited the public imagination as much as the discrimination and sexual assault case of Shanique Myrie vs Barbados.

“In fact, the reason for Europeans going to Africa was that Africa was rich in tropical agriculture and not because of the physical makeup of our ancestors,” he stated. “We need to walk through the passages that our ancestors walked, and we can only do that if we educate ourselves,” he added. He said education will also generate a bigger and growing political voice to support the work of the National Commission for Reparations (NCR). “I have no doubt that if the people are educated they will begin to think differently,” he said.

JACK WARNER PLANS TO SUE SIR DAVID SIMMONS

T

he newly elected member of Parliament for Chaguanas West, Austin Jack Warner says he will shortly be taking legal action against Sir David Simmons, who chaired CONCACAF’s ethics committee. It is the report from this committee which alleged that Warner was fraudulent in his management of CONCACAF and the ownership of the Centre of Excellence, which forced Warner to resign as National Security Minister, UNC chairman and Chaguanas West MP. Addressing a news conference at the Independent Liberal Party (ILP) Chaguanas headquarters on Wednesday, Warner said he intended to sue Simmons and in due course, the public will hear more. Warner said he sought the advice of three lawyers — Justice Zainool Hosein, Andrew Mitchell QC and Bertram E Commissiong QC — who found that the report was flawed, and in light of this, Warner said he received fiat from CONCACAF, giving him permission to take legal action against Simmons. Simmons, a former Barbados chief justice who chaired the committee, retired United States District Court Judge Ricardo Urbina and ex-Pricewaterhouse Coopers partner and auditor Ernesto Hempe released the damning report in April this year leading Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar to accept Warner’s resignation. Warner declined to divulge much information on the matter pointing out that in time this agreement will also be made public. “Everything is timing, that is why I am here today as the member of Parliament for Chaguanas West,” he said. “In this country the higher one is in office is the least likely he or she will ever resign on a principle. I did, others have not,” adding that he thought the entire UNC cabal should resign for giving bad advice to the Prime Minister. ILP interim chairman Robin Montano commented that there have been allegations against Warner for 12 years yet FIFA has never brought any criminal or civil action against him, while ILP deputy political leader Anna Deonarine, said the allegations were unsubstantiated, baseless and that FIFA was biased against Warner.
