353 AnonymousI think this policy will be detrimental to the development of a viable industrial base in the carribbean. It will lead to mass unemployment and hunger and in turn will fuel drug smuggling and illegal migration which is not in the best interest of the carribbean or europe

377 Chris HalsallFor the record, I am not fundamentally against trade agreements. However, I do not find myself appropriately informed on the advantages vs. disadvantages of this particular agreement. If more information was available, I might reconsider my position...
378 Nirad TewarieI took a long time to sign this petition in part because I was waiting to hear what regional leaders would highlight as the advantages for the Caribbean in the EPA. Having taken a disinterested approach to the negotiations, probably out of ignorance, most leaders are unable to do so because they just don't understand either the agreement itself or its implications. Indeed, as we try to find our space in the world we should be entering into more arrangements with countries of the South, especially smaller so-called 'frontier states'. Consequently, the breakup of the ACP could never be in our strategic interest. With CariCan negotiations set to get underway and FTA negotiations with the US looming, the EPA in its present form is not in our best interest - not a single CARICOM state can really identify how they have gained or put in place the policies and infrastructure to benefit. Leaders ay well find that contrary to their current leanings, it may be far more politically expedient to delay and revise the EPA rather than proceeding like they are - blind, mad bulls in a china shop one could argue.

381 AnonymousI choose nr. 1 because I am a Caribbean woman living for many years in Europe but hope to someday return to my country. I know there is danger in the EPA. and I think it is best to limit the EPA.
382 Gillian MignottLet us await the translation of the Taubira report!!!
383 Azizah Abdul-HaqqThe ability to measure the socio-economic impacts of the EPA on crucial segments of our societies and renegotiation after review of the EPA provisions are critical elements!

385 Kozel Peters-Frasercaribbean governments need to listen to the voice of the people and push for renegotiations of the EPA. I have yet to see the development in the developmental dimension.

387 WINFA Staffwe at WINFA call on our governments not to proceed with the planned September 2nd signing of the EPA as currently negotiated and instead to insist on a renegotiation of the Agreement to ensure that the best interests and livelihood of the Caribbean people are preserved.
