La guadeloupéenne Kanelle Valton, résidente de la section Antilles-Guyane de Sciences Po Alumni siégera au conseil d’administration de l’association des anciens élèves de l’Institut d’études politiques de Paris. Un événement pour la prestigieuse institution qui déploie depuis quelques années, une logique d’ouverture. Rencontre avec une jeune femme brillante.
Tout d’abord, c’est grâce à la création de la section Antilles-Guyane, que nous avons pu avoir accès au conseil d’administration de l’Association. En effet, l’Association fonctionne en réseau composée d’entités en régions ou à l’International mais c’est relativement récent. Avant, nous nous organisions entre anciens élèves guadeloupéens, autour de deux grands axes, l’information sur le cursus et la préparation aux épreuves d’admission….

Depuis quelques mois, d’après les éleveurs de bovins le vol de leurs animaux s’est intensifié. Les malfaiteurs agissent la nuit et n’hésitent à revenir parfois pour finir le travail. Sans témoin, il est quasi impossible de les retrouver. Ces vols à répétition mettent en péril les exploitations.
Pourquoi déposer plainte ?
Bien qu’il soit chanceux de n’avoir pas subi de vol, Charly Singarin, éleveur basé à Desvarieux (Petit-Canal) et président du Syndicat régional des éleveurs de la Guadeloupe est inquiet. Son cheptel compte entre 30 et 40 bêtes. Il craint d’être une des prochaines victimes. Si cela finissait par lui arriver, il pense qu’une plainte déposée à la police ou à la gendarmerie, ne l’aidera pas à protéger ses bêtes, en raison du manque d’informations sur les voleurs. Il n’y a pas de témoins et il n’y a aucune indication sur les véhicules avec lesquels les malfaiteurs opèrent. Ils agissent la nuit et dans des lieux reculés où il n’y a pas ou peu d’habitations. Il se plaint de ne pas recevoir d’aides de la part des SICA comme Cap’Viande ou Sélection Créole, ni de l’Iguavie (Interprofessionnelle guadeloupéenne de l’agriculture, de la viande et de l’Élevage), ni de la chambre d’agriculture de la Guadeloupe, pas même de la Région ou du Département. Il en profite également pour critiquer les entreprises de la grande distribution, qui selon lui, ne soutiennent la production bovine locale, en dépit de leur message publicitaire.
Des solution difficiles à trouver
Charly Singarin estime que pour protéger son exploitation, il n’y a pas 30 solutions : les forces de l’ordre devraient multiplier les rondes autour des élevages (bovins, caprins, porcins, les volailles). L’installation de caméras de surveillance n’est pas à envisager selon lui, car les élevages se trouvent le plus souvent dans des zones qui ne sont pas électrifiées. A moins d’opter pour le solaire. L’éleveur est pessimiste. Il craint de devoir jeter l’éponge. A l’entendre, il a effectué de lourds investissements et comme pour ses autres confrères, le vol de ses animaux mettraient en péril son exploitation.
« Des dispositifs de sécurité devrait être mis en place »
Mettre des caméras solaires
Les maladies, l’attaque des chiens errants…
Les éleveurs de bovins en particuliers doivent faire à différentes maladies qui touchent leur cheptel. La gale (maladie de la peau touchant les bovidés et provoquée par des acariens – notamment des mouches- est une de celle là. Elle crée des lésions de la peau parfois très importantes et très douloureuses. Une situation qui est fréquente dans les élevages allaitants, mais aussi chez les laitiers. Ils doivent aussi faire face à la tique sénégalaise (maladie également transmise par les mouches), à l’attaque des chiens errants ou encore à l’augmentation du prix des intrants. Les trois années de sécheresse et les deux années de crise sanitaire qui ont ralenti la filière bovine sans compter le manque de foncier agricole.

CABINET NOTES:
The Director of the SLBMC and the Chairperson of the Board which governs the hospital were invited to address the issue of “waiting time” at the Emergency Room at the SLBMC.
The challenge of all emergency rooms is determined by the volume of patients who present themselves for emergency care.
More than 40,000 patients present themselves before the SLBMC each year. The research reveals that most are in need of “urgent care”, not “emergency care”; nevertheless, all who show up are treated.
The SLBMC is working to increase the number of doctors and nurses in the Emergency Room, in order to reduce the waiting time of patients.
An increase in the number of doctors at the Clinics is also being worked-on, since “urgent care” is dispensed at clinics.
The many clinics throughout the country fall under the control of the Chief Medical Officer.
Hence, increases in doctors and scheduling changes can be determined by the CMO, and not the Director of the SLBMC, the Cabinet was informed.
The proposed changes to the functioning of the clinics will be addressed shortly, the meeting indicated.

HURST REPORTS ON CABINET of Wednesday 12th October 2022
All members of Cabinet were present. Cabinet commenced at 10:30am following prayers by the Priest.
The Cabinet summoned a number of agencies to appear before it, in an effort to strengthen governance and to ensure compliance with policy:
The Department of the Environment (DOE), led by its Executive Director, came bearing samples of mosquito traps for households and the outside.These traps were purchased through a grant provided by the Global Environmental Fund (GEF). Mosquito traps, the Executive Director reported, were distributed to households in the McKinnon’s Swamp area and in Yorks Village where stagnant water enables mosquitos to breed in large numbers, and to invade the homes. The traps are environmentally friendly and are powered by electricity. Thousands more are being imported from a wholesaler in China for distribution to households in waterlogged areas, where children live. The fear of children contracting mosquito-borne diseases drives this policy. The use of fogging will continue; however, fogging can be harmful to some useful flying insects, and continues to be used sparingly. The traps are also being sold in hardware stores throughout Antigua.
The Director of the SLBMC and the Chairperson of the Board which governs the hospital were invited to address the issue of “waiting time” at the Emergency Room at the SLBMC.The challenge of all emergency rooms is determined by the volume of patients who present themselves for emergency care. More than 40,000 patients present themselves before the SLBMC each year. The research reveals that most are in need of “urgent care”, not “emergency care”; nevertheless, all who show up are treated. The SLBMC is working to increase the number of doctors and nurses in the Emergency Room, in order to reduce the waiting time of patients.
An increase in the number of doctors at the Clinics is also being worked-on, since “urgent care” is dispensed at clinics. The many clinics throughout the country fall under the control of the Chief Medical Officer. Hence, increases in doctors and scheduling changes can be determined by the CMO, and not the Director of the SLBMC, the Cabinet was informed. The proposed changes to the functioning of the clinics will be addressed shortly, the meeting indicated.
iii. The Commissioner of the Inland Revenue Department and his Deputy were invited to Cabinet in order to operationalize the waivers and forgiveness of property taxes announced last week. It was agreed that the waiver of unpaid taxes would apply for the period January 1, 2015, to December 31, 2021. The tax owed for 2022, will be required to be paid. That payment is to be made before March 31, 2023, in order to realize the waiver/forgiveness.
The rules which currently provide for a 10% waiver when the property tax is paid early, continues to govern; and, pensioners continue to enjoy a 50% discount.
The Directors of the National Solid Waste Management Authority (NSWMA) and the Central Board of Health (CBH) were invited to Cabinet, along with six additional technicians, in order to address the overgrowth in grasses and unwanted vegetation along busy highways and secondary roads.The end of the national solid waste clean-up campaign is over; more than 2,500 derelict vehicles were removed from the streets of Antigua during the period.
Deploying personnel in a manner intended to address the overgrown bushes that now pose a health challenge and are unsightly, is henceforth undergoing fundamental re-examination in order to maximize effectiveness. The Cabinet and the Ministry of Health agreed to regularize the contracts, to make regular payments, and to provide more supervisory control in order to ensure that the teams spend the time contractually agreed. The teams are also to interact with the representatives of the areas in order to ensure that priority areas are addressed. The rainy season poses special challenges to the grass cutting and removal.
The CBH also addressed the challenge posed by the shrinkage of burial spaces for the dead, especially those who lived in the City of St. John’s. Throughout Antigua and Barbuda, about 600 people die each year. Very few are cremated; the overwhelming majority are buried. The Cabinet agreed to bring all private landowners’ burial grounds under full control of the Government/CBH. The new cemetery at Tomlinson’s will be brought into use sometime next year.
The Cabinet also invited the Officer-in-Charge at the Immigration Department to explainhow soon the Amnesty Certificates were being issued following the application for amnesty; and, how long would it take for citizenship to be granted, following the receipt of the Amnesty Certificate. The Officer-in-Charge made reference to the many applicants not requiring amnesty who had submitted applications and who were awaiting the final stages prior to the swearing-in. A period of almost one year would be the waiting time, it was explained, before citizenship is finally granted. Amnesty Certificates were issued within 30 days following the successful amnesty application.
2. The Minister of Health reported that not a single case of monkey pox has been found in Antigua and Barbuda. Several suspicious patients were tested and they have all proved negative, thus far; one more test case remains to be reported, but that too is likely to prove negative. A pending proposal to purchase monkey pox vaccines was not approved by the Cabinet, at the urging of the Health Minister.
The Minister of the Environment proposed to Cabinet the recycling of plastics, including the ubiquitous drinking water bottle, by way of construction of a recycling plant.The proposal was approved by the Cabinet. The plant would turn the discarded plastics into several products that can be utilized in Antigua and Barbuda, and even exported to other neighbouring Caribbean islands.
The Cabinet reflected on the recent graduation of the first cohort of UWI-Five Islands’ graduates on Saturday past, and congratulated the men and women who earned their baccalaureate degrees at the campus. Congratulations were also heaped on the head of Sir Richie Richardson for his role in West Indies Cricket which earned him a Doctor of Laws Honorary Degree. The Cabinet repeated its pledge to spend $75 million dollars to expand the campus and the offerings of its many Schools. New dormitories and classrooms are soon to be added to this magnificent achievement.
5. There will not be a Parliamentary sitting on Thursday, October 13, as agreed last week, because of changing circumstances.

AHATA ta bisa cla y raspa:
Tin hopi preocupacion grandi riba tur esaki
ORANJESTAD (AAN): Aruba Hotel & Tourism Association a revisa gobierno di Aruba su plan di impuesto 2023 y ta sumamente preocupa pa e efectonan negativo cu esaki por trece pa pais Aruba. Segun Presidente y CEO di AHATA, Señora Tisa LaSorte, e plan ta un “fundraiser mandatorio” cu ta recauda mas fondo di tur esnan cu ya ta cumpli cu impuesto.
Aunke cu e anuncio di gobierno falta hopi detaye y no ta duna bista completo riba su efecto, AHATA ta desea di splica e preocupacionnan di mas grandi relaciona cu e informacion disponibel:
(*) E enfasis di gobierno ta robes: ta hisa entrada di gobierno pa sostene un instituto ineficiente door di di cobra mas y pone mas peso financiero riba nos comunidad, en bes di baha gasto gubernamental structuralmente, crea mihor eficiencia, y implementa un plan agresivo pa hisa cumplimento di impuesto den e grupo grandi cu no ta paga y cumpli cu nan deber.
(*) E plan di impuesto ta hisa gasto di compania cual lo resulta den prijs mas halto y costo di bida mas halto pa comunidad.
(*) E elementonan di compensacion (por ehempel: baha loonbelasting) ta masha tiki compara cu e cantidad adicional di impuesto tur hende lo paga.
(*) Prijs mas halto por resulta den menos consumo di residente y di turista. E ora e fondonan extra cu gobierno a calcula cu nan lo ricibi, no lo resulta.
(*) Un di e elementonan di mas dañino pa compania den e pakete di impuesto nobo ta e limite riba devaluacion di propedad inmobil. Esaki ta afecta e entrada di un compania drasticamente. Un decision asina ta core cu inversionista en bes di atrae inversionista.
(*) E prijsnan mas halto hunto cu e problema existente den distribucion global lo keda causa mas inflacion.
Segun LaSorte, ta di lamenta cu sector priva, incluyendo AHATA, consistentemente a ofrece pa participa den e proceso di crea un reforma fiscal efectivo pa Aruba, pero cu gobierno ta nenga di acepta e expertisio y ayudo.
E falta di transparencia y inclusion ta trece su consecuencianan negativo pa henter comunidad.
