Caribbean Report 12-08-1988
This program takes a critical look at the level of security in England prior to this year’s Notting Hill Carnival, and the Carnival Committee’s apparent lack of preparation. The program briefly explores the political climate of Dominica in the midst of the country’s 10th anniversary of Independence and the run up to general elections on the island. Additionally, it also takes a look at the reception given to Cuban President Fidel Castro by the Ecuadorian people as he visits Ecuador on the occasion of the presidential inauguration of Rodrigo Borja Cevallos. In cricket news, reactions to Clive Lloyd’s appointment as West Indies team Manager by Vivian Richards and Jackie Hendricks is examined, and finally the program reflects on the contribution of John Logie Baird to the invention and early development of television on the eve of the 100th anniversary of his birth.
