"Gold is not sold"
July 30, 2008, 19:55 (GMT -04:00)

ORANJESTAD - The government is under no circumstance intends to transfer part of the gold to sell. This she says in response to the statements of group Rudy Lampe (RED).

This suggests that consideration be given to a part of the gold to sell for as a miljoenenschuld of the Land to be repaid as a result of a contract that was completed in 1999. The opposition party refers to the 2007 annual report of the Central Bank Aruba (CBA). It says the Bank will soon take a decision on the so-called gold collar option contract. This last year for a loss of 89.8 million ensured florin (compared with 55.2 million in 2006) because of soaring gold price. The contract expires on 28 april next year. The Bank is considering to sign the contract (in part) to terminate or for a certain period of time.

Should the contract be terminated then the debt of almost 90 million cash florin be repaid or (partly) the gold be sold, according to the Bank. "Once a decision has been taken by CBA and the financial implications are known, they are included in the financial report."

Prime Minister Nelson Oduber has been in the media know that Aruba has absolutely no intention to sell the gold. Oduber said this after he and Finance Minister Nilo Swaen recently with CBA president Hassanali Mehran have consulted.

It is not yet known whether this means that the Bank as a result of this decision to renew the contract or terminate it. In the latter case, nearly 90 million florin cash paid to Barclays Capital Bank.

Oduber late at least know that Aruba still expect money from the Netherlands of the proceeds from the Plant-hotel and also 90 million florin of Valero should be given due bbo overdue payments.

According Swaen the Bank really has no other option than to terminate the contract. "The current situation is very different than in the 90s (when the contract was completed, ed) The gold prices have meanwhile risen drastically, and this probably remain so, given the financial situation worldwide. According to the contractual price, CBA gets 367 dollars a troy ounce (31.1 grams, ed) to the sale of our gold. "The annual report of the Bank reports that on 31 december last year the gold price 635.70 dollars per troy ounce. The price of gold is now about 900 dollars per ounce.

Contract

Swaen expressed earlier this week in a press release sharp criticism Lampe that the problems in trying to move the shoes of the MEP government. "Lampe would give the impression that the MEP government is responsible, and I in particular. He plays a political game with our gold in the CBA. "The minister believes that a political leader who has aspirations to govern the country, 'seriousness' must show at the time that he or she is making policy. "With manipulation and the truth to bend over so as to win sympathy at the expense of others, I do not think you follow the right path to meet the power needs."

The Minister further explains that the gold collar option contract was signed during the Cabinet-Eman. "This contract is a crazy decision that Cabinet has taken Eman, and now it appears disastrous for our island." The contract with the banker Rothschild (the contract was taken over by Barclays, eds.) was afsloten time because the strong gold prices in the fall were. The then president of the Central Bank then proposed to Minister of Finance, Tico Croes (ASF) to the gold sales, said Swaen, so to prevent the country even more so suffer losses. There was a fixed price agreed to allow CBA to a further decline in gold price does not need to collect more loss. It also meant that if the gold price above the agreed price of 367 dollars a troy ounce would come true, those profits went to the banker. "The purpose of this contract was clear to our gold selling", said Swaen. "As Minister of Finance I do not think that our gold may be sold." Moreover, the financial consequences of the contract by CBA never mentioned in the annual reports, said the minister. "This began only after the MEP government demanded this."

Autonomy

On February 25, 2004 extended the CBA contract, according to Lampe something that should never have done, because then there was a significant loss. "The Bank Saturday to determine the contract and had no other option. The bank then had to extend it. "Also Mehran's predecessor Rob Henriquez, who is adored as by Lampe," has done nothing in the contract, accuses the Swaen RED-parliamentarian.

Because the contract expires next year, the Bank once a decision.

Swaen: "I have the directors of the bank asked for me as soon as possible to inform them of the solution that will be remembered for this, and so far I am still waiting for response". If the contract is renewed, it remains Aruba in any case until the gold price remains high millions florin wrong, said the minister. The decision remains the responsibility of CBA.

The minister says to the strange conclusion that he believes that the RED group resulting wants to change the law allowing the authority and independence of the Central Bank will be affected. Lampe would legally define that in exceptional circumstances and only after approval of a two-thirds majority in Parliament the gold can be sold. Swaen: "Lampe has always been in favour of an autonomous Central Bank and now he wants autonomy mitigate this!"

OT here but another tourist incident recently in Antigua. Mod feel free to remove if this has already been posted.I feel unspeakably sorry for the victims in this case, but i also feel it is important to be aware of just how much crime really does occur in paradise.

Briton shot on honeymoon heading home from Antigua

August 1, 2008
ST JOHN'S, Antigua and Barbuda (AFP) — A British doctor, still in a coma from an attack that left his newly wed wife dead, left Antigua early Friday for Wales aboard an air ambulance.

A police escort and a five-person medical team helped Benjamin Mullany's brother transfer the injured man from hospital to a waiting Learjet 35.

Officials shielded Mullany from the view of gathered media with white sheets and he was boarded onto the plane, which will stop in the United States en route to Britain.

The body of his murdered wife, Catherine, will also be flown home to Wales via a commercial flight to London later Friday.

Catherine Mullany, 31, was shot dead Sunday and Benjamin, also 31, was left in a coma after assailants entered their room at a luxury resort here in what police are treating a robbery "gone bad."

Police spokesman Cornelium Charles earlier told AFP that Benjamin Mullany's family had decided to transfer him to Britain for medical care.

The move came after Antigua's prime minister asked British police to help investigate several unsolved murders there in the wake of the brutal shooting.

In a national broadcast Wednesday, Prime Minister Baldwin Spencer said his government had made a "formal request of Scotland Yard for its assistance in cracking the number of unsolved murders still on the books." Scotland Yard refers to London's Metropolitan Police.

A team of detectives from Wales, where the couple lived, is already expected on the Carribean island to help investigate the brutal weekend attack, said Antiguan police.

Antigua hotels and businesses have offered a 130,000 dollar reward for information leading to the arrest of those responsible for the shooting.

No arrests have been made, although police are pursuing several leads and had been questioning people about the murder.

Antigua Hotels and Tourist Association chairman Ted Isaac said his group has planned a march and memorial service on Sunday in Mullany's honor to show how seriously hoteliers were taking the issue.

"We want the world to understand that we abhor this despicable crime," Isaac said.

The Mullanys, from Pontardawe, in South Wales, were nearing the end of a two-week honeymoon on the island when they were attacked.

The parents of both victims arrived in Antigua on Tuesday and issued a statement distributed by the Foreign Office in London, asking for privacy.

"We have found some of the stories reported in certain areas of the press insensitive, untrue, and have added to our distress," read the statement.

"While we understand that media interest in this tragic incident is inevitable, we feel that our privacy has been invaded at an extremely upsetting time for us all."

Yes, I'd read about that BB...so heartbreaking; and you're right about crimes in paradise.
