Interesting, if CARICOM cannot dissolve the imperial WICBC- I doh care what they call themselves these days, a pig with lipstick is still a PIG, then what good is CARICOM?
Perhaps there should be another report urging the immediate dissolution of Caricom for allowing West Indies cricket to be owned, not by the people, but a private institution.
In the meantime CLR James must be turning repeatedly in his grave.

What do we have here, a case of the cart pulling the horse?
Or is this an attempt at throwing out the baby with the bathwater?

Sleep with the devil to remove the WICBC.
In reply to Emir
My perspective is that You should have addressed your Remarks to the Prime Minister of Antigua &
Barbuda .
I get the impression that he has thrown his Lot in with Cameron &
Co. By doing this he has & is rendering the Regional Governments to becoming Impotent
in their attempts to make the WICBC
become a Responsible Entity ,
with Transparency ; Accountability
& Good Governance as the centerpiece of the WICBC .
As I have stated elsewhere in this
Forum , the Prime Minister of Antigua & Barbuda , was selfishly
only looking out for the Interest of
his Country alone .
HE missed the Big Picture , which is
that he has allowed himself to be used by the WICBC for its own selfish Interest .
NOT THE INTEREST OF WEST
INDIES CRICKET AS A WHOLE .
The Antigua & Barbuda P.M.
apparently is oblivious of the WICBC Strategy which obviously is
TO DIVIDE & CONQUER ; to achieve
its Goals.
This in my opinion ; is a Classic
case of Crabs in a Barrel Mentality.
He has broken ranks with those who want the WICBC to change its
Modus Operandi .
This apparently did not matter to
him . So he & his Countries will
get some money .
HOWEVER , WILL THE STANDARD
OF CRICKET IN THE REGION IN THE
LONGER VERSIONS OF THE GAME
IMPROVE IN THE INTERNATIONAL
CRICKET ARENA ????
I DON'T THINK SO ; HOWEVER
TIME WILL TELL .
