Martinique, which our Hon. Prime Minister will sign with the regional council in
Martinique sometime in December, is the conducting of a seminar on pain
management this is going to be done by Dr. Winston Paris. He has indicated that
he would introduce pain management seminar in Martinique so this is one of the
activities that we are hoping to do in Martinique during the first half of next
