 Press Release
Cable and Wireless has admitted that if it failed to reach an agreement with the OECS which would halt the phone company's plan to pull out of St. Lucia, there could be a cloud over future relations with other OECS member nations.
Cable and Wireless had hoped that the last meeting between its representatives and the OECS Ministers on 31 January 2001 would reach a settlement of the outstanding issues and was disappointed that the meeting failed to get started.
Mitchell said the OECS negotiating team would be tabling and reinforcing a number of positions during the one-day meeting that sub-regional leaders called for while in Barbados attending the 12th inter-sessional meeting of leaders of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM).

This year, there was also a taste of history as various floats paraded Barbados' achievements over the years, including the progress made in the telecommunications and electronic industries via Cable & Wireless and the Barbados Light & Power, which were major sponsors.
It was, to some extent, a scenario of "wuk" and "work" as 12 T-shirt bands, some containing as many as 400 revellers, and 15 BWU floats, took to the streets from as early as 9:30 a.m., winin' and rolling along to the music of Barbadian and Caribbean soca hits.
In a revived Caribbean Congaline Carnival incorporating the traditional May Day labour celebrations and the revelry synonymous with Kadooment, Queen's Park was swarmed by tens of thousands of Barbadians and visitors when T-shirt bands and the floats of the Barbados Workers' Union (BWU) came together for a spectacle of fun, colour and revelry.

 Barbados National Cultural Foundation Crop Over calypso music at Barbados Kadoomant carnival
Last month, BET, the top United States television network whose programming accent is on African-Americans, announced its partnership with telecoms giant Cable and Wireless to share Caribbean music with audiences worldwide – including 80 million American households – by covering Sumfest in Jamaica, Crop-Over, and the 2006 Trinidad Carnival.
He stressed it was an important initiative as Barbados looked at ways to increase and attract visitors through its cultural products, noting that the significant contribution made to national economies by festivals was sometimes overlooked.
Saying that artistes would be offered exposure similar to that of Edwin, Rupee, Magnet Man and Rihanna, the senator said BET would "afford to these artistes free of costs what would otherwise have been almost prohibitive costs in marketing themselves".
