The fifth report from Cancun is in the can. The World Trade Organisation meeting is taking place in Cancún, Mexico till Sunday 14th September and it seems that the so-call development round was not -surprise, surprise!!- about development at all, but an attempt to further weaken the position of developing countries. Conall O'Caoimh, project coordinator with Comhlahm, is an NGO observer on the official Irish government delegation and he reports daily to NEAR fm 101.6 from Cancún. You can listen to him on radio @ 11.00pm on Saturday or 12.30 pm on Sunday and/or download his reports from NEARfm's website (Saturday and sunday will not be available till Monday, though!) http://www.nearfm.ie/cancun.html ... read full story / add a comment
