AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Maritime Safety & Regional Response: A Trinidadian fisherman, Anthony Murray, died after being rescued from the sinking MV St Vincent VII off the coast of French Guiana, following a fire onboard; six crew survived nine days adrift before the Marvel Kite rescue, but Murray’s condition deteriorated en route to Barbados as the vessel’s destination was changed to St Vincent and the Grenadines. Fishing Community Alarm: Families of six missing crew from the same St Vincent VII are urging intensified search-and-rescue across Suriname, French Guiana and Brazil, saying the burned vessel has been without power or communication since July 13 and may still be drifting. Ferry Disaster Watch: Off Guyana, the MV Barima tragedy continues to reshape regional maritime scrutiny as officials revise the passenger count to 179, with 27 confirmed dead and 83 still unaccounted for amid a search spanning about 1,040 sq km and support that includes a French Guiana dive team. Connectivity & Investment: EllaLink and ASN say the Lum@link submarine installation is on track, with the CS Île d’Yeu sailing to Cayenne to start work on the first direct French Guiana–continental Europe connection by end-2026. Regional Integration: Martinique and French Guiana officially joined CARICOM as associate members, expanding associate membership to eight territories. Tax & Digital Economy: CARICOM’s COTA conference in Georgetown (27–31 July) will focus on smart, data-driven and AI-enabled tax administration. Energy Projects: French renewable firm HDF Energy secured Jamaica land for a utility-scale solar plus hydrogen and battery storage project, inviting investors and operators. Business & Leadership: Guyanese Dr. Kimberly Manbodh assumed leadership as Rotaract District 7030 representative, highlighting local entrepreneurship and community finance networks.
