You may think that with a small population of 410,000, there are few opportunities to trade with Malta. But principal UK s to Malta are the by-products of petroleum, chemicals, building products, paper and board, electrical materials, medical and pharmaceutical products, electrical goods, transport, and food stuffs. There is now a national effort to place Malta on the global ICT map as a leader in the region.

By using an input-output model, the present paper examines the impacts of increase in the domestic petroleum prices on cost production in the Malaysian agricultural and agro-based sectors. This study simulates the different scenarios of the petroleum price changes on sectoral cost production, which comprises of domestic materials cost, imports and labor. The simulation results indicated that the agricultural sector particularly fishing, forestry and logging products, as well as oil palm primary products industries are mostly affected by the increase of the domestic petroleum price. These industries are significantly affected by domestic petroleum price increase because they consume large amount of petroleum products as intermediate inputs in their production process.

There are a number of things that are happening now that are destabilizing and threatening the existence of Caricom. The political integration that is being pursued by Trinidad and a number of countries in the Eastern Caribbean may very well be commendable, but I believe that it is at the detriment to the deepening and strengthening of Caricom," he said.
On [Chavez]'s ALBA, [Bruce Golding] contended that he believed "that the membership of ALBA, which now engages three Caricom countries, is going to have a destabilizing effect on Caricom.
