GEORGE TOWN, Cayman Islands: Caribbean
Net News is currently in the initial stages of testing a new Internet
radio station: Caribbean Net Radio.
This latest service will be largely news-focused, along with Caribbean and
other easy listening music. According to the publisher and editor in chief of
Caribbean Net News, Mr Desmond Seales, the new radio station will
follow the successful format of the existing online publication by offering
regional news and information, without being influenced by national political
agendas. “With the rise of supranational
economic and political groupings, notably the European Union, NAFTA, and the
as yet unrealised Free Trade Area of the Americas, as well as CARICOM itself,
the Caribbean needs to move rapidly towards greater regional cohesiveness if
we are to survive amidst the global behemoths,” said Mr Seales.
“We hope that Caribbean Net News and Caribbean Net Radio will be
able to play a small part in the progress in this direction of the region as a
whole,” he added. Caribbean Net Radio’s
streaming audio (currently in Windows Media format) may be accessed here:
mms://160.79.128.178/caribnet17463 Also,
according to Mr Seales, the first print edition of Caribbean Net News
is planned for late April and will be distributed throughout the region, as
well as the Caribbean Diaspora, to be followed by a Hurricane Special 2005
edition in June.
