Medium term Perspectives Appendix The History of Suriname Geography People Highlights Overall Country Risk Rating B Political Stability B Economic Conditions B External Position and Foreign Exchange Availability B Suriname's macroeconomic situation continued to be broadly favorable in 1996. Real GDP rose 3.0%. The prospect is of economic growth holding up in 1997 and improving in 1998. This year exports should benefit from the upward trend in aluminum prices. Annual average inflation has declined from 236 percent in 1995 to around -0.8 percent in 1996. Preliminary indications of the new government's economic policies point to a continued emphasis on sound fiscal and monetary policy, which should ensure that a stable macroeconomic environment is maintained. The government has defied some of the initial skepticism about its economic management by consolidating the macroeconomic achievements of the previous government. A program for the restructuring and privatization of state owned companies is well on the way.

Welcome to the Caribbean Home Page Welcome WTTC News Business ... Vegetation Geography and Geographical Features Reportedly, the physical beauty of the region fascinated the first Europeans who traveled to the Caribbean. These Spaniards in Columbus' ships described the Caribbean as green and fertile, cooled by the trade winds, with a climate of `perpetual spring'. The lush vegetation, types of fruits and the flora and fauna were portrayed with great enthusiasm. The Caribbean region, located in the tropics, extends in a broad arc of over 4000 km from the Bahamas in the north to Guyana and Suriname in the south. The region also includes, based on historical factors, Belize which is in Central America bordering Mexico and Guatemala. The countries are widely different in physical and population size as well as landforms and geology. It is to be noted that Dominica, St. Vincent and most of St. Kitts have no white sand beaches. The volcanic ash that characterizes these islands is extremely fertile. Historically, St. Kitts has produced sugar cane with yields comparable to those of high yield sugar-producing countries, like Australia and Cuba. The verdant green of the valleys in St. Vincent is an indication of the fertility of the soil in that island.
