As the December 2005 deadline for the coming into being of the Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA) arrangement approaches, there are concerns about the ability of industries in the region to effectively compete and take advantage of trade opportunities.Dr. Rosalea Hamilton, Trade Policy Consultant and Executive Director of the Institute of Law and Economics, is of the view that the region, even with its small size and vulnerable economies, can compete in the FTAA.
She says that the FTAA provides new opportunities, including easier access to the largest markets in the world. "If we have the creative, competitive products, goods and services that we can sell, then we have a real chance of increasing our income and getting out of our economic woes. So, it really does depend fundamentally on how prepared we are and our ability to compete," she argues.
"The opening up means that there are possibilities of increased investment within the region and the hope and expectation is that with those investment will come employment opportunities, growth opportunities and new technological arrangements," Dr. Hamilton tells JIS News.
She points out that the creation of the Caribbean Single Market and Economy (CSME) is important to the region's ability to compete.
"I believe that by forging stronger relationships between our countries, among our peoples, especially with the facilitation of the movement of people provision within the Revised Treaty of Chaguaramas, lies our greatest opportunity to put on the world scene, our creative goods and services. I think if we can do that, building on who we are, our music, our food, our entertainment, our history, our culture, our language, then there are huge possibilities," Dr. Hamilton says.
The FTAA is essentially an economic arrangement to facilitate free trade among the countries in the western hemisphere from Alaska all the way down to Argentina, with the exception of Cuba. The main thrust of the negotiations is to remove tariffs as far as possible, to facilitate trade in goods and services.
It is a fairly ambitious agenda because of the uneven economic relationship between the countries. For example, the largest economy in the world, the United States (US), would be trading with the smallest economies, such as the countries of the Organization of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS). All these countries have different concerns about what would be in their best interest in the negotiations.
CARICOM's major position is essentially to create negotiating space to take account of the fact that the region is small with very vulnerable economies. Throughout the negotiations, the concern has been to ensure that there is adequate time to adjust, to cope with the reciprocal trading arrangements that are required, as well as to seek the necessary financial and technical assistance.
Many analysts think that the 2005 time-frame is unrealistic, but there is still the expectation that it can be achieved, given the agreement reached at a meeting in Miami in November of last year, where the Trade Ministers agreed on a two-tiered approach to the negotiations.
The idea is that there will be a core or common tier, which will incorporate all countries, and a plurilateral level, which will allow individual countries to sign on later if they feel that they are ready to be part of the agreement. Prior to that meeting, a very ambitious agenda had been set, to undertake a whole range of negotiations, many of which were very controversial.
Details of the two-tier approach should have been fleshed out at a meeting of the Trade Negotiations Committee (TNC) of the FTAA in Mexico in February, but those discussions were stalled on the conflicting positions around agriculture.
Essentially, the US, with its extensive subsidies and domestic support, has sought to keep agricultural issues out of the FTAA considerations and have argued they can be more effectively addressed at the level of the World Trade Organisation (WTO). Countries like Brazil and Argentina, which have a large agricultural sector and can benefit from increased access to markets such as the US, have been arguing very strongly for the inclusion of agriculture in the agreement.
Recently, the US created a new free trade agreement with Australia and the fear is that this is likely to set a bad precedent because in that agreement, agricultural issues were left out.
Ambassador, Dr. Richard Bernal, Director General of the Caribbean Regional Negotiating Machinery (RNM), in a release after the Mexico meeting, had said that the region was concerned by the fall-out from the impasse. He said the deadlock had forced the postponement of Caribbean roundtable discussions under the Hemispheric Co-operation Programme (HCP) and new dates would be proposed in due course.
The roundtables are a follow-up to initial dialogue held last October between potential donors and countries seeking assistance for trade capacity building for the implementation of the FTAA.
The RNM efforts are being supported by the work of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Foreign Trade consultative mechanism, the Jamaica Trade and Adjustment Team (JTAT), which is designed to encourage greater private sector involvement in trade negotiations in which Jamaica is engaged, including the FTAA. A number of business groups, including the Association of Development Agencies (ADA), Friedrich Stiftung and the Jamaica Agricultural Society (JAS), have been attending the meetings and they have helped to increase public awareness of the issues. But even while the RNM continues to seek technical support for capacity building and to prepare industries to compete under the new trade arrangements, Dr. Hamilton says that CARICOM governments must be pro-active in designing a strategic trade policy that would focus on the strengths of the region.
"The writing is on the wall, both in the FTAA as well as in the WTO. people are moving away from preferential arrangements to more reciprocal trade. It means that firms must adjust to do things differently, to be much more competitive and they ultimately have to withstand the competition both at home and abroad in order to sell their goods and services," she argues.
Dr. Hamilton tells JIS News that the region can also take advantage of its cultural diversity by forging linkages with countries such as India and China that are emerging to be major economic power blocs. "The opportunities we have to harness and create those linkages are real and I think we need to just build on that," she emphasizes, adding that already there was emerging trade in 'chutney' music between musicians in Trinidad and Tobago and India.
The trade expert also points to the need for increased public education on the issue. "We have to recognize that it's not just business as usual; we have to begin to think outside the box. We need to re-organize the kind of self-confidence that I know we have as a people and do things differently, so that we can effectively penetrate these markets and access opportunities that are opening up. We have to do that to offset the obvious threats that are out there," she stresses.
As the December 2005 deadline for the coming into being of the Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA) arrangement approaches, there are concerns about the ability of industries in the region to effectively compete and take advantage of trade opportunities.Dr. Rosalea Hamilton, Trade Policy Consultant and Executive Director of the Institute of Law and Economics, is of the view that the region, even with its small size and vulnerable economies, can compete in the FTAA.

Let me take you back to ten years ago when I played American Dragon: Jake Long – Rise of the Huntsclan for Game Boy Advance and American Dragon: Jake Long – Attack of the Dark Dragon for the Nintendo DS.

Review of Shantae And The Pirate's Curse Review (Nintendo 3DS version) - By Wing See Li (xflowerstarx from Twitter)
This is when I first discovered WayForward's potential. Fast forward to this year, everything comes full circle as I play Shantae And The Pirate's Curse for the Nintendo 3DS.
To be honest, I knew next to nothing about the Shantae series back then until I heard a lot of optimistic things about the upcoming instalment, Shantae: Half Genie Hero, via word of mouth on the internet, social media and Kickstarter a couple of years ago. Since then, curiosity got the best of me that spurred me to gather research on the aforementioned series. That's when I eventually learned it existed in the same year (2002) as the Ratchet & Clank series, Girls Aloud, VBirds, Sly Cooper and Super Mario Sunshine, to name a few. Unfortunately, high school, Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, Mario, Kirby, Girls Aloud, Sugababes, Cartoon Network (back when Cartoon Network is still in its golden age) etc caught most of my attention at the time and completely overshadowed the series. It isn't until this year (2016) I finally got the opportunity to try out one of the Shantae games when one of my internet friends told me he'd offer me the download code of Shantae and the Pirate's Curse if I handed him a £15 Nintendo e-shop card. After I traded the £15 Nintendo e-shop card for the download code, I wasted no time in downloading the game from the Nintendo e-shop. I haven't regretted it ever since.
You know a video game is extremely astounding when the gameplay is insanely addictive with bouncy, infectious tunes with Bollywood undertones to complement the main heroine, Shantae, if the soundtrack is anything to come by. In fact, I haven't had this much fun in a very long time.
Speaking of her, she is a purple-haired half genie, half human who is the Guardian Genie of her homeworld, Sequin Land. She does everything in her power to protect it at all costs on a daily basis from her arch nemesis and the main antagonist of the Shantae series, Risky Boots, who is the scourge of the seven seas.
Figure 2: Risky Boots, the self-proclaimed Queen Pirate of the Seven Seas and the main antagonist of the Shantae series.
Shantae And The Pirate's Curse is the third instalment in the Shantae series and is released for Nintendo 3DS, Nintendo Wii U, PlayStation 4 etc, following the obscure video game title, Shantae, for the Game Boy Colour and the critically acclaimed sequel, Shantae: Risky's Revenge, which is originally released for Nintendo DSi. The director's cut version of this game is later ported to the Nintendo Wii U and Nintendo 3DS and most recently, physical copies of the aforesaid game from Limited Run Games will come out only for PlayStation 4 this year.
Following the events of Shantae: Risky's Revenge, Shantae wakes up from her dream. Ever since she lost her magical powers, she's been experiencing the same dream repeatedly. Suddenly, a deafening noise boomed outside of her lighthouse, resulting in her exiting it only to discover Scuttle Town is under attack once again. When she arrives on the scene, at first she assumed the pirates (most specifically, Risky Boots and her Tinkerbat crew) were behind the attack but her friends, Sky and Bolo, informed her that Ammo Baron and his Ammonian army are the ones who wrecked havoc instead. She then sets out to track down Ammo Baron whilst wiping the pavement floor with his army. After making short work of the Ammonian army, she encounters Ammo Baron before they engaged in battle. Despite emerging victorious from the scuffle, she lost in a sense since Scuttle Town is now under her enemy's control and the royal guards from the Sequin Land Palace have given her a court summons scroll and ordered her to stay at her home. After her friends and her uncle, Mimic, returned to their homes, she returned to her lighthouse and complained about her current situation, all thanks to Risky stealing her magic and her genie lamp for her evil purposes earlier. Noticing a (suspiciously placed) bathtub, Shantae decided to take a bath to relax only to realise she doesn't own a bathtub later on. Apparently, it's the work of Risky Boots as she leaped from the roof and landed on the floor of the room where the aforementioned bathtub is located at before laughing evilly. With a gloat and a smug expression plastered on her face, she revealed to the former half-genie the bathtub is in fact a boobietrap. However, the aforesaid ex-half genie isn't having any of it. During their conversation, Risky threatened Shantae she'll kill her right there and now as well as accusing her of stealing her Tinkerbat squadron and her pirate armoury.
Proving Shantae is "exacting her revenge on her" or so she assumed, Risky somehow towed the bathtub with her in it to Mimic's workshop to find a Tinkerbat locked in a glass tube of a contraption. After the nefarious pirate demanded the return of her weaponry and her Tinkerbat posse, she and her arch nemesis spotted a combination of purple and black substance mysteriously floating around the pipe of the machine before consuming the Tinkerbat, transforming it into a Cursed Cacklebat. After it escaped from the machine, a short skirmish ensued. Once the former half-genie trounced the Cacklebat, Risky handed her adversary the magic lamp with the purpose of absorbing the dark magic into it. When this is taken care of, Shantae is surprised that her arch foe didn't bother to steal the magic lamp back, seeing as she told her she had bigger fish to fry, in other words the Pirate Master. Without saying goodbye, the dreaded pirate departed from the workshop, leaving a confused Shantae behind. When she exited the abovementioned workshop, she approached Risky, who is standing in front of her pirate ship, asking about the Pirate Master. She soon learned that back then the Pirate Master is the greatest threat Sequin Land have ever known and long ago it took the combined powers of all of the genies to seal him away in the depths of the grave or the netherworld. Unfortunately, the absence of a map of the forbidden isles prevented Shantae and Risky from setting off. Fortunately for the pirate, the hair-whipping heroine knew the location of the map, which just so happened to be at the library in the Sequin Land Palace. So, in the meantime, they formed a truce and a temporary partnership to boot. Donning a pirate bandana, she and Risky Boots set sail for a swashbuckling adventure, spanning across a multitude of islands whilst sailing the seven seas in a bid to put an end to the dreaded curse and stamping out the Pirate Master once and for all.
On that note, you start out the quest with Shantae's signature ability of whipping her purple-hued long hair which is tied in a ponytail as if you're using a whip but as you progress through the game you unlock Risky Boot's pirate weaponry and equipment by means of opening treasure chests that are normally scattered in numerous, cavernous dungeons.
The pirate weapons and equipment that used to belong to Risky Boots (which she stole from the Pirate Master in the past) makes up for the lack of a double jump, a triple jump and a long jump. Thus, making Shantae stand out from the ever-increasing line-up of 2D and 3D platforming mascots. Without her magic, Risky Boot's arsenal of pirate artillery replaces it for the time being.
These are the following weapons Shantae will take advantage of during her voyage across the seven seas below in order:
• Flintlock Pistol
• Pirate Hat
• Scimitar
• Risky's Boots
• Cannon
Touching the left or right arrow icons on the touch screen allows me to gain access to the inventory (where I store items), key items and the map. If a highlighted shape on the abovementioned map is shining, this shows my current location in a level, area or dungeon. Speaking of the map, a map of an island, a map of a dungeon or the Forbidden Isles can be hidden in locked treasure chests, dropped by a Tinkerbat after vanquishing a boss or secured in a globe within the Sequin Land Palace library respectively.
Speaking of the dungeons and the items (in other words, the pirate gear), the pirate weapons Shantae finds in treasure chests in the dungeons will aid her to traverse through them, overcome obstacles, trounce bosses and so on, similar to The Legend of Zelda series. Take the Flintlock Pistol she retrieved in the Ancient Aquifers (Spittle Maze) for instance, it helps her to activate switches from afar and shoot at foes that posed little threat to her from a safe distance.
Figure 3: Each location, level and dungeon have a map.
The game is a 2D, 16-bit side-scrolling platformer but it's also open-world since collecting objects encourages exploration and backtracking. Not to mention, there are light RPG elements in terms of the storyline, how much hit points you, the bosses and the enemies can take, how many hit points the adversary takes before they're trounced, accumulating Heart Squids to forge more Heart Holders, upgrading the attack power of the weapons, purchasing items from a shop and so forth.
Concerning hearts, they are usually dropped by defeated enemies, found in small and fairly large vases that are littered in a variety of spots in every locale, sometimes there are slightly bigger hearts which refills some of Shantae's health and there are Heart Squids to collect. Bring them over to the Scuttle Town Squidsmith and she'll forge them into Heart Holders. Though, she can only forge four Heart Squids at a time. One important thing to mention is at the Bath House in Scuttle Town, there is an herbal spring that Shantae can bathe in to gradually replenish her health one heart point at a time and vigour. Finally after emerging victorious from a boss showdown, she jumps into the air and she twirls on the spot while floating above the ground, she recovers her some of her health.
Oddly enough, Shantae doesn't have any lives just like most video game heroes in this game in contrast to the first Shantae game. The instant she loses all of her hearts, it's game over. During the game over screen, it shows the main antagonist, the Pirate Master, in his ghoulish, inhuman form and the player is given the opportunity to choose between continuing from the last save point or return to the title screen.
The gameplay at its core consists mostly of Shantae hopping from platform to platform all the while combating monsters by whipping her hair at them, taking full advantage of her newly-equipped pirate arsenal or protecting herself with pike balls, super pike balls and bubble shields or evading their attacks and leaping over bottomless pits. There are times when she occasionally plunges into pits on purpose to uncover secrets, unseen items and hidden passageways. The game controls and Shantae's abilities are all part of the gameplay. Best of all, the gameplay is insanely addictive! It's so addictive, I almost lost track of time! I invested a lot of my time and a lorry full of hours into this game, I seriously don't know when to stop playing! This got to the point where I've wasted my life away for numerous days or weeks straight! I haven't played a highly addictive game since Animal Crossing: New Leaf.
Whenever a monster is defeated, they drop a variety of items but they vary from Flesh Pops to Monies (the currency of this game).
At Scuttle Town which serves as the hub of the game, there are many activities to do such as talking to the inhabitants, visiting the Bath House, Bird House (where Sky lives at), Save Room, Mimic's Workshop, item shop and the Scuttle Town Squidsmith shop and boarding the Steam Powered Oceanic Tinker Tub Mark 2.
Within the item shop, there are items and upgrades to purchase such as Potions, Auto-Potions, Pirate Flares, Pike Balls, Super Pike Balls, Bubble Shields, Monster Milks, Super Monster Milks, Shampoo, Silky Cream, Pistol Tune-Up, Scimitar Polish, Learn Backdash, Learn Recover and Learn Power Kick. The prices of these items can vary; depending on which and how many items you buy. Shantae can carry up to twelve slots in her inventory. Throughout the adventure, there are heaps of secrets that are cleverly hidden. Sometimes, they aren't compulsory but you'll never know what you'll uncover in your travels. These secrets can be discovered by whipping your ponytail at a seemingly fishy spot or a random wall, dashing at the speed of light as if her life depends on it by using the Scimitar and Risky's Boots at once until you crash into a suspicious-looking wall or spot or using another method by means of making use of the weapon of your choosing. For example… Spoilers Alert! There is a Dribble Fountain hidden within the dungeon (the first dungeon of the game) at Saliva Island. If you want to search for every secret, you must find them in every nook and cranny unless you have a lot of motivation and loads of spare time to do so.
Figure 4: The Dribble Fountain is a throwback to the first Shantae game.
The other secret I uncovered is the enemy gauntlet, which is hidden within the Ye Royal Sewers. Once inside, Shantae confronts almost every single monster of this game except for the tiny annoyances such as the spiders while Risky Boot's theme ("Do You Even Whip?", according to the name of this music track in the game's original soundtrack) is being played. This reminds me of the Pit of 100 Trials from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door.
Figure 5: This enemy gauntlet pits Shantae against nearly every monster of the game.
Unlike American Dragon: Jake Long – Rise of the Huntsclan and American Dragon: Jake Long – Attack of the Dark Dragon, Shantae and the Pirate's Curse can't be saved automatically. In order to save, Shantae must find a save room or save point in each area. Therefore, you must save a save file manually. This can be exasperatingly bothersome, especially if you've lost track of time so much to where it gets to the point of you forgetting to save your game. I can't stress this enough, every time you buy an item, obtained dark magic by sucking it into your magic lamp, completed a dungeon, gained a new pirate weapon etc, you must save your progress under no circumstances. Though, it's mandatory to save your game manually in most video games. There are also checkpoints but they only occur if you fell into bottomless pits that are now marked with numerous skulls with crossbones so you know you mustn't drop into them. Even if you tumble into them, you lose one heart point from a single heart and you start at the beginning of the same area where you plummet into a bottomless pit.
Figure 6: The green-clothed, elderly save guy saves your progress if you approach him.
The sprites of the characters provide the game a sense of nostalgia and an old-school feel as if you're playing a game from yesteryear. The animation of the sprites is animated very well and I loved the attention to detail in the background and foreground. For instance, the Middle East-based buildings are being demolished in the background while I'm making short work of Ammo Baron's army in the foreground at Scuttle Town during the beginning of the game.
The script and dialogue are top-notch, a joy to read and they're well written and the aforesaid dialogue is always accompanied with a detailed artwork of a character, showing their current emotion. The artwork is obviously in an anime-inspired style and is noticeably drawn in a sexualised fashion when it comes to the female characters and the dialogue or script is laced with innuendos and dirty jokes just like the scripts in each Ratchet & Clank game and within the Ratchet & Clank comic book series. The execution in the humour rivals with the Ratchet & Clank series, the first three Paper Mario games (Paper Mario, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door and Super Paper Mario), Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars and the Mario & Luigi series.
There are times when I've been chuckling and laughing a bit or laughing my head off, it depends on whether I understand the joke or not or if I find the dialogue humorous or not and this is coming from someone who doesn't get amused easily most of the time.
Speaking of the dialogue, it can be beneficial especially if some of the words are highlighted in yellow and are in capital letters. These important words indicate an item a non-playable character either lost or you must retrieve it from an island or someone else. For example, the words "enchanted blade" and "desert" are in capital letters and are highlighted in yellow. This means you must recover Bran-Son's enchanted blade from the Tan Line Island, which is later revealed to be a desert-themed isle. Aside from gathering all of the dark magic (there are 20 in total, according to the Key Items stash which you can gain access to by the touch screen. In order to gathering them, you must defeat all of the Cursed Cacklebats) by means of a magical lamp and the main objective of the game, there are other mini side-quests to keep you occupied and entertained such as collecting all of the Squid Hearts (there are 32 Squid Hearts altogether) and embarking on countless fetch quests.
Figure 7: This is one of the many dialogues laced with innuendos throughout the game.
Figure 8: Brandon a.k.a. Bran-Son is parody of He-Man.He also reminds me of Captain Qwark from the Ratchet & Clank series.
Figure 9: Don't we all? I'm sure we all love to blow up a villain's hideout to kingdom come.
Here are the controls of the game, Shantae's wide range of aptitudes, her inventory and her Key Items stash (including Risky Boot's pirate arsenal) as follows below:
Game Controls and Shantae's Abilities
• Y button – When pushing the Y button, Shantae whips her ponytail as her main method of attack. Therefore, it's her signature melee attack. She can also lash out her ponytail while she's crouching. • A button – Firing Risky's Flintlock Pistol, talking to non-playable characters or confirming chosen options. • B button – Jump. Also pressing the B button will allow Shantae to fire Risky's cannon in the direction she is facing. However, she can only shoot herself upwards three times. • Circle Pad/D-Pad – Moving the circle pad/d-pad to choose between options. Moving the circle pad or the d-pad will let Shantae to run in any direction, depending on which way the aforementioned circle pad/d-pad is pointing. Also, shifting the circle pad/d-pad in any direction will cause her to build up speed. If she is glowing, press the Y button to release the energy. With the Scimitar in one of her hands, she is capable of running at breakneck speeds. • Down direction on Circle Pad/D-Pad – holding down on the d-pad or circle pad while pointing left or right will cause Shantae to crawl. • R button – Holding the R button while airborne will enable Shantae to deploy Risky's hat to hover over hazards and obstacles whilst defying gravity and soaring to new heights. • L button – Press the L button while standing will result in Shantae to perform her back dash ability. Additionally, pressing this button while she is in the air to perform a downward thrust with the Scimitar which is useful for breaking blocks beneath her or bouncing over hindrances. • X button – Holding the X button will cause Shantae to withdraw her magic lamp from her Key Items stash in order to suck dark magic, scent etc. • Holding circle pad or the d-pad upwards while pressing A will result in Shantae to execute her Heavy Kick move. • If Shantae is knocked off her feet, pressing the B button will result in her back flipping with the intention of recovering. • Start button – Skip conversations or pause the game. • Select button – Pause the game. • Home button – Suspend the game or resume suspended game.
• Potion – Downing this red-coloured liquid recovers most of Shantae's hearts. • Auto-Potion – As the name implies, it automatically restores all of Shantae's health. • Monster Milk – Drinking this milk will boost up Shantae's attack power for a short period of time. • Super Monster Milk – One swig of the milk will increase Shantae's attack power for a limited amount of time. • Pirate Flare – Lighting this flare outside of a dungeon will transport its user to the port. • Bubble Shield – Upon utilising it, a light blue-tinted bubble forms temporarily around Shantae like a force field that defends her from most projectiles. • Pike Ball – Once equipped, a handful of grey spiked balls orbit around Shantae to protect her from harm and touching her foes upon contact. • Super Pike Ball – A souped-up version of the Pike Ball. Once arming her with the aforesaid Super Pike Ball, three bladed balls whirl around Shantae at a blindingly fast pace. • Flesh Pop – Foul tasting food that restores a bit of health. • Meat Chunklet – Savoury meat still fresh on the bone! Restores a fair amount of health. • Bento Box – A delicious assortment of highly nourishing edibles. Restores a lot of health. • Lobster Tail – A five star feast that restores tons of health!
Key Items
• Magic Lamp – The golden magical lamp is used to suck up dark magic released from the Cursed Cacklebats as well as scents. • Squid Hearts – Forge them into new Heart Holders. • Door Combo – the door combination for the Tan Line Temple. • Flintlock Pistol – This single gun with unlimited ammunition can be fired at distant enemies and switches. • Hat – Deploying this hat will allow Shantae to float above hazards and land on platforms that are out of her reach. • Scimitar – Utilising this weapon in the air will destroy blocks, enemies and obstacles with a down thrust. • Risky's Boots – Wearing Risky's Boots and wielding the Scimitar simultaneously will cause Shantae to skim across lava, spikes or water in a blinding blur, knocking out enemies one after the other in succession like dominoes in the process. While both items are in effect, she is invulnerable. • Cannon – This is used to blast Shantae into the air up to three times in any direction she is facing. It can also be used to attack ground and airborne enemies. • Shampoo (x 3) – The shampoo increases the attack power of her hair. • Cream (x 3) – The cream removes the tangles in her hair for much quicker hair-whipping. • Pistol Up! (x 3) – an upgrade for the Flintlock Pistol. Just like the shampoo and cream, the pistol can only be upgraded thrice. • Polish – the polish is for sharpening the Scimitar weapon. • Back Dash – The Back Dash ability allows Shantae to avoid attacks from monsters and her opponents. • Heavy Kick – Press the A button while holding the circle pad or the d-pad upwards will result Shantae to deliver a heavy kick to her adversaries. • Recover – If Shantae is knocked off her feet, pressing the B button will cause Shantae to perform a backflip in order to recover from an overwhelming assault. • (Along the way during the swashbuckling escapade, Shantae will collect other items such as Court Summons, Royal Gate Key, Library Card, Forbidden Isles Map etc which will be temporarily stored in the Key Items stash. They must be returned to their rightful owners or given to the correct non-playable character).
The main area of the Shantae series, Sequin Land, is split into seven islands which are known as Scuttle Town, Saliva Island, Spiderweb Island, Tan Line Island, Mud Bog Island, Frostbite Island and Lonely Grave. During the game, Scuttle Town acts as a hub and Risky Boot's pirate ship, Steam Powered Oceanic Tinker Tub Mark 2 (apparently, Shantae blew up the first pirate ship to kingdom come, according to Risky Boots), acts as a method of transportation. Each of these Forbidden Isles have in-between areas, levels and dungeons like for instance, the Scarecrow Fields, Tangle Forest and the Ye Royal Sewers.
Figure 10: There's just something about Mud Bog Island that gives me the heebee-jeebies.
Figure 11: The Hexer is one of the characters in Shantae and the Pirate's Curse.
Figure 12: Wrench is a weird name for a bird but I've heard stranger names or surnames.
Just like the numerous games before it throughout the years, this game is without its faults.
My first criticism is the backtracking. Fortunately, backtracking have toned down in this game. Too much backtracking can cause the player to forget which non-playable character needs the retrieved item in terms of fetch quests or it can result in said player to forget some of the locations of the Squid Hearts and the Cursed Cacklebats. However, it can be helpful when the situation calls for it occasionally like for example, making use of the pirate flare to return to the port. However, I couldn't backtrack to the entrance of the palace even if I wanted to just in case I've come unprepared (in terms of not stocking up on enough items properly), which is ridiculously unfair where as in the Palace of Shadow from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door and Fawful's Castle from Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story, I'm able to backtrack to the entrance and then return to these dungeons later after restocking on important provisions.
Figure 13: Backtracking can be useful sometimes, especially if you haven't stocked up on enough items properly.
My second nitpick is the difficulty spike. It can range from easy to difficult or brutally challenging, depending on which island or area you're at. Plus, the difficulty spike can occur when you least expect it and it's all over the place. Thereby, catching you off guard. In addition, there are times when I've been cursing up a storm. One of the examples are when I first stepped into the Tan Line Temple, I instantly got mistaken for a princess. Before I knew it, I've been locked in a room fit for royalty until the coronation. Similar to the Princess Peach interludes from Paper Mario and Secret Agent Clank, I've been tasked with sneaking around the temple in a stealthy manner whilst trying to escape, all the while attempting to avoid being spotted by using the environment to my advantage by means of hiding in the shadows even as the guards are patrolling around their posts. If I get caught by one of the guards, they usher me back to the confines of my room.
Figure 14: Similar to Paper Mario, one little mistake and you get sent back to your room.
Another example is the final dungeon of this game known as the Pirate Master's Palace. Near the climax of the quest (or as the gamers call it, "Endgame"), I didn't expect the Sequin Land Palace as the final dungeon to deal with. As far as video games are concerned, this isn't the first time I've seen a megalomaniac dictator taking over someone else's castle or palace and giving it a makeover to their liking in any way they see fit. When I arrived at the entrance of the palace after the nightmarish journey through a hoard of hellish foes, I barely noticed the newly-transformed exterior due to the ominous storm raging outside which is pulsing with evilness that prevented me to see its appearance. Little did I know what I'm in for? Upon entering the first room, the only sentence that popped into my head is, "He may have redecorated a little…", referring to the Pirate Master as I allowed my eyes to wander all over the gruesome surroundings. This final dungeon takes no prisoners and there's no room for error. Not only that, but also this dungeon isn't for the faint hearted in terms of the insane difficulty spike. Each room is more frustratingly tougher than the last. I've experienced a lorry full of final dungeons throughout my gaming life but the Pirate Master's Palace really takes the cake. Furthermore, it's going to be the death of me for the umpteenth time.
Figure 15: The Pirate Master may have redecorated a little…
In addition, this said dungeon is the first hardest final dungeon I tackled in a very long time. I can't even remember the last time a final dungeon that gave me so much trouble to where it gets to the point of me nearly throwing my game controller (or video game handheld console, in this game's case) out the window. Probably the previous final dungeon with an identical difficulty level I experienced is the Palace of Shadow or the Pit of 100 Trials from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door or Fawful's Castle from Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story.
Figure 16: Utilising Risky's Boots and the Scimitar simultaneously will cause Shantae to dash at a breakneck speed.
If there is one thing video games and my father have taught me throughout the years is to never, ever give up, even when things seemed daunting and hopeless for me. At first you don't succeed, try, try again. Here's my tip: aside from the important essentials regarding the inventory and the key items, what you need are nerves of steel, willpower and the constant refusal of surrendering. Stubbornness can be another thing to list down. No matter how many times I failed miserably or how many things the dungeon can throw at me, the difficulty spike didn't deter me from venturing deep into the palace.
Figure 17: It's understandable final dungeons are meant to be difficult but the unexpected difficulty spike is unfairly unforgivable.
To put it simply, if you reach near the finale of the game, don't expect this godforsaken dungeon (with a sudden, unforgivable difficulty spike) to hold your hand. It's like an unrelenting gauntlet of never-ending torture and doom that will put all of your skills, abilities and endurance to the test.
My third complaint is the sense of getting lost and not knowing what to do, resulting in the player wandering around an area, level or dungeon aimlessly and willy-nilly. Usually this is a result of an excessive (and unnecessary) amount of backtracking which I pointed out earlier. The layout of the map can be another reason.
Beside the aforementioned criticisms, there are other minor nitpicks such as the A button being reserved for firing the Flintlock Pistol instead of the B button which will confuse gamers if they're playing this game for the first time. In most games these days, the A button is for jumping when it comes to video game protagonists. The other nitpick is either WayForward, Nintendo UK, Nintendo of Europe or whoever localised the game can't be bothered to change the dialogue to British English or they can't tell the difference between British English and American English which is one of my pet peeves in video games throughout the years.
Last but not least, there's yet another nitpick I'd like to point out which is I've noticed Shantae lacked the ability to swim in this game. Previously, she's capable of swimming in Shantae: Risky's Revenge. Most 2D and 3D platforming heroes, heroines and sidekicks possess the capability of swimming but it is strange Shantae couldn't swim, similar to Skylar from the upcoming fellow indie 3D platforming game, Skylar & Plux: Adventure on Clover Island. I can't stress this enough that swimming is a natural thing to do, even for humans and living, breathing creatures and since Shantae is (half) human, it's inexcusable she isn't capable of doing just that.
Now on the subject of the video game soundtrack, Jake Kaufman composes it. Some music tracks from it are more memorable and catchy, more so than others. In fact, there's not a single music track I didn't like. Regarding the soundtrack, it certainly have set the bar high and it's up there with video game soundtracks from Super Mario 64, Super Mario Galaxy, Super Mario Galaxy 2, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, Spyro 2: Gateway To Glimmer, Mario & Luigi: Dream Team Bros., Densetsu No Stafy 4 and Ratchet & Clank 2: Locked and Loaded, to name a few.
Figure 18: Almost every boss in the level share the same Boss Battle theme except for the Squid Baron and the Pirate Master.
Some of my favourite music tracks from the soundtrack are "Boss Battle", "We Love Burning Town", "Scuttle Town", "Scorching Dunes (Sunburn Island)", "Trip Through Sequin Land" and "Beyond Permafrost (Abandoned Factory)". I recommend you to listen to the entire soundtrack with your headphones for the full experience. Just like the islands and the dungeons themselves, the soundtrack can whisk you off to places beyond your wildest dreams. Furthermore, they enhance the game experience indeed and make you feel as if you're actually traversing through the locations, levels, dungeons and islands.
As I listened to the soundtrack, it took me more than a while to become aware of the theme of "Boss Battle" is remixed and used multiple times, similar to the "Boss Battle" theme from the Japan-only, 2D side-scrolling Nintendo DS game, Densetsu No Stafy 4. What both boss battle themes from these games respectively have in common are they are intense, heart-thumping, exhilarating, infectiously catchy and fast-paced. However, unlike the "Boss Battle" theme from Densetsu No Stafy 4, the "Boss Battle" theme sounds more Bollywood-like.
Thankfully, my positive views outweigh my negative opinions I had for this game in terms of the varying amount.
My overall verdict of Shantae and the Pirate's Curse is it's an enthralling game with unexpected surprises at every turn which will keep you guessing, highly addictive gameplay, a phenomenal, infectiously catchy soundtrack oozing with ear candy and a well written, laugh-out-loud script that will keep you engaged for many weeks to come, despite it's an indie game, its short length, its flaws and its price. I assure you it's worth every penny in spite of the frustrations I had with the game sometimes. All I ask of you is give Shantae a chance; she might surprise you just like she did the same to me. If you like what you see on what Shantae and the Pirate's Curse has to offer, then you're in for a treat when Shantae: Half Genie Hero is finally released! In the meantime, I suggest you check out Shantae and Shantae: Risky's Revenge if the Shantae series have tickled your fancy.

HerMoney Happy Hour
Welcome to your HerMoney Happy Hour! Grab a drink!
A HerMoney Happy Hour is one of our most popular tools. It is a gathering of 8 to 12 women with the express purpose of talking about money. You can do this with your friends, your book group, at networking meetings, even with women you've just met. Having people of different ages, professions, and perspectives in the room is terrific. A full set is 40 cards!
Here's how it works: The person with the next birthday begins by drawing a card and starting the conversation. Everyone can and should chime in. Then, go around in a circle with each person drawing a card and talking in turn. If you pull a card that doesn't apply, pull another. If there's time (there usually isn't), you can go around again.
Ground Rules:
Here are 10 HerMoney Happy Hour questions to get you going
- What would make you feel financially "free"?
- Are you holding onto any past money mistakes? What are they? And would it take to let them go?
- Would life be better if you could say no more often? What can you do to change that?
- What is it about money that makes you want to scream/pull out your hair/grab the Chardonnay?
- We share shopping tips. Why not investment tips?
- Is it OK to hide money from your spouse/partner in your underwear drawer?
- Does money make friendships more complicated?
- What does it mean to have enough?
- Some people believe women are more risk-averse than men. Is that true for you—in investing, career, life?
- If you had a financial wake-up call, what was it? How did you handle it?

Our Junior High Students from St. Theresa Middle School were extremely excited about this evening visit, as it gave the students an opportunity to introduce their "linked" senior to their parent. This visit also allowed our seniors to invite their family members to witness the wonderful relationships that they have built with the students.
Our Family Meet and Greet visits are very similar to a regular Linking Generations visit, as we had a structured activity to do together as Families !!!
A special Thank You to Strathcona Councilor (Ward 1) Vic Bidzinski for his dedication and support to Linking Generations !

What Unites Us: Reflections On Patriotism
- $19.99
- $19.99
Publisher Description
At a moment of crisis over our national identity, Dan Rather has been reflecting—and writing passionately almost every day on social media—about the world we live in, what our core ideals have been and should be, and what it means to be an American.
In a collection of original essays, the venerated television journalist, Dan Rather, celebrates our shared values and what matters most in our great country, and shows us what patriotism looks like. Writing about the institutions that sustain us, such as public libraries, public schools, and national parks; the values that have transformed us, such as the struggle for civil rights; and the drive toward science and innovation that has made the United States great, Rather will bring to bear his decades of experience on the frontlines of the world's biggest stories, and offer readers a way forward.
After a career spent as reporter and anchor for CBS News, where he interviewed every living President since Eisenhower and was on the ground for every major event, from the assassination of John F. Kennedy to Watergate to 9/11, Rather has also become a hugely popular voice of reason on social media, with nearly two million Facebook followers and an engaged new audience who help to make many of his posts go viral. With his famously plainspoken voice and a fundamental sense of hope, Rather has written the book to inspire conversation and listening, and to remind us all how we are ultimately united.

We loved being at the breath-taking Harborside East venue this weekend for Sirena and Khemari' s big day! The space was dressed head to toe in shimmering flashes of deep purple and gold that only added to the beauty of the venue. With the help of Jevettra at Avila Dawn Events, this wedding was a showstopper just like our brides! She made sure every detail was perfectly set and is a delight to work alongside.
We had the pleasure of passing our beloved Sweet Tea Barbeque Chicken Topped Corn Bread Round and Fried Green Tomatoes topped with Herbed Goat Cheese, Pickled Pepper and Micro Arugula to their hungry guests as they took some fabulous pictures by the water for cocktail hour! (Priscilla Thomas, their photographer, really has an eye for gorgeous shots!) Such a great simple southern start to get everyone ready for dinner!
Family and Friends quickly headed up to the stations after enjoying our pre-set Field Fresh Salad with Fresh Cucumbers, Tomatoes, Red Onion, House-made Croutons and Dijon Vinaigrette. They were welcomed by our staff serving up our yummy Pecan Encrusted Chicken Breast with Bourbon Maple Mustard Sauce with Sautéed Green Beans and some amazing Roasted Sweet Potatoes with a Brown Sugar/Cream Cheese Sauce that'll make your mouth water! On the other side of the room, our Shrimp and Grits station stole the show with those Parmesan Grits I know you've heard so much about!
After everyone had enjoyed our stations, there was nothing stopping them from hitting the dance floor…and believe me, they were ready! DJ Mike had them dancing non-stop and as the night slowly crept to an end what better way send our brides off with a pretty ribbon send off! Congratulations to our new Mrs. and Mrs.! We truly hope you have a lifetime of happiness!

Independent Scotland 'would not keep aid jobs'
An independent Scotland could not expect to keep the hundreds of jobs currently based at the UK's overseas aid headquarters in Lanarkshire, the coalition's International Development Secretary has said.
Justine Greening said that the staff would not transfer to a new state, despite her Scottish equivalent telling the same committee that such a step would be "up for negotiation" after a Yes vote.
The Department for International Development has about 40 per cent of its staff at East Kilbride and is a large employer for the area. Speaking at the Commons International Affairs Committee last month, Humza Yousaf, the Scottish International Development Minister, said the SNP would "look to preserve the continuity of employment" for these staff in the event of a "yes" vote. However,

Abbott headed for 'policy cul-de-sac'
WAYNE Swan has told his caucus colleagues July 1 will be a "game-changer" for the lagging fortunes of the federal Labor government.
The Treasurer, who is acting Prime Minister while Julia Gillard attends the G20 meeting in Mexico, predicted Opposition Leader Tony Abbott would find himself in a "policy cul-de-sac" when his "relentless negativity" about the carbon tax proved to be exaggerated.
He said the coalition would face credibility problems when the sky did not "fall in" on July 1.
Mr Swan also highlighted the substantial combination of household payments already delivered to millions of Australians since the Federal Budget.
Those payments - including increased family, pension and jobseeker payments - were "useful and effective" for Labor MPs to discuss with constituents, particularly those worried about the potential impacts of the carbon tax.
Community Services Minister Jenny Macklin reminded caucus Schoolkids Bonus payments would begin appearing in families' bank accounts from Wednesday and continue until the end of the month.
About 1.3 million families will receive the payments, which is replacing the Education Tax Refund.
Families receiving Family Tax Benefit Part A on a fortnightly basis will receive $409 for each child in primary school and $818 for each high school student.
Schoolkids Bonus
The number of students in each of the electorates in APN's footprint who will receive the Schoolkids Bonus payments:
- Dawson - 15550 students

Would have been nice to run this morning.
If I could have done so and stay dry.
Oh, and sleep in. Heck, if I hadn't slept in, I would have missed that enlightening dream where a friend was bullshitting me about some simple piece of electronics while someone I don't know in real life but apparently knew in the dream was trying to sell a piece-of-shit Pontiac Fiero to some rube.

Mary Johnson, of MaryQuilts.com, expresses joy in seeing her quilt design used for some in this collection of donation quilts. The makers are members of two Tyler Texas churches and the entire lot, all 111, are going to the local Salvation Army.
Of her pattern, "Quick Strippie", she explains,
Just a yard of a novelty print and two coordinating fabrics from stash and it always looks so cute!
I agree. Notice the quilt on the front row, third from the right, where the quilter used a yellow print with pink and blue strips. Adorable. If you need a go-to quilt pattern for donations or quick gifts this is a must-have.

Which war causes the loss of so many fellows?
In 2018 at least 1923 workers lost their lives
The hours spent on the road to reach work. Precarious working conditions: long working hours, one person having to do the work of two people, bad food, lack of safety measures at work, insults from bosses… It is as if we live in order to work, not the other way around!
At home there's rent to be paid, the costs of food, of schooling and health, other bills… The inflation is over 20% according to official figures, but in reality it's even higher. People are being fired, there's oppression against workers who stand up for their rights, strikes are banned… This is unbearable, we can't make a living anymore!
This is exactly what they call precarity! During the administration of AKP, in which precarity became the current order of proletarian work and life, approximately 22.500 workers have lost their lives in work-related murders.
1923 Work-related Murders
According to the information we obtained from the national and regional press (in 83% of the cases) or from colleagues and relatives of the deceased, specialists on job safety, company doctors and unions (in 17% of the cases), in 2018 at least 1923 workers lost their lives.
Our report shows 10 cases of work-related murders resulting from occupational diseases (6 farmers died of Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever, 1 worker in the sandblasting jeans industry and 1 mineworker succumbed to silicosis, 1 construction worker died of malaria, 1 agricultural worker died of rabies). When we keep in mind that figures from ILO and WHO show that for every person 'dying in a work-related accident' there are approximately six cases of 'death caused by an occupational disease', it's clear that that occupational diseases in Turkey are made invisible.
For 2018, the distribution of work-related murders by month is as follows:
In January at least 144 workers lost their lives in work-related murders, in February at least 128 workers, in March at least 130 workers, in April at least 189 workers, in May at least 169 workers, in June at least 151 workers, in July at least 201 workers, in August at least 185 workers, in September at least 167 workers, in October at least 179 workers, in November at least 155 workers, and in December at least 126 workers.
When we look at the distribution of work-related murders by form of employment, we observe that 1573 of the people who died were employees (workers and civil servants) while 350 were self-employed (farmers and shopkeepers). In other words, 82% of the people who got killed consisted of employees, whereas 18% was self-employed.
The distribution of work-related murders by professional sector is as follows:
Of the people who lost their lives, 457 (268 farmers and 189 workers) were working in the sectors of agriculture and forestry; 438 workers in (road) construction; 233 workers in transportation; 118 workers in trade, office work, education and movies; 114 workers in the metal industry; 88 workers in municipalities and general work; 66 workers in mining; 63 workers in the energy sector; 47 workers in the hotel and entertainment sector; 44 workers in food and confectionary; 42 workers in the sector of defence and security; 36 workers in the petro-chemical and rubber sector; 29 workers in health and social work; 28 workers in textile and leather; 21 workers in cement, earthworks and glass; 17 workers in wood and paper; 16 workers in the sector of shipping, docks, maritime business and harbour; 6 workers in communication; 3 workers in banking, finance and insurance, and 4 workers in the sector of press and journalism. For 50 workers who lost their lives, we weren't able to determine the sector they were working in.
The distribution of work-related murders by cause of death is as follows:
408 workers lost their lives in traffic accidents, while being transported in a company bus or otherwise; 379 workers were crushed or got trapped under debris; 325 workers died after falling down from a height; 200 workers died of a heart attack or brain haemorrhage; 113 workers died of an electric shock; 112 workers fell victim to violence; 82 workers died of intoxication or suffocation; 73 workers committed suicide; 50 workers died in an explosion or fire; 40 workers died after being hit by a (falling) object; 24 workers died as a result of cuts or losing limbs; 117 workers lost their lives as a result of other causes.
The distribution of work-related murders by gender is as follows: 119 female workers and 1804 male workers lost their lives.
The distribution of work-related murders by age is as follows:
23 child workers at or below the age of 14,
44 child/teen workers between the ages of 15-17,
285 workers between the ages of 18-28,
944 workers between the ages of 28-50,
371 workers between the ages of 51-64,
98 workers at and above the age of 65,
and 158 workers of unknown age lost their lives.
In 2018, 110 refugees/immigrants lost their lives. If we look at the countries they are from:
48 Syrian workers; 28 Afghan workers; 5 Azerbaijani workers; 4 workers each from Iraq, Pakistan and Turkmenistan; 3 workers from Georgia; 2 workers each from Iran, Russia and Ukrainia; 1 worker each from India, Kyrgyzstan, Hungary, Nigerian, Uzbekistan, Romania, Tajikistan, and Zimbabwe.
In 2018, 48 (2,49%) of the workers killed in work-related murders were union workers and 1875 (97,51%) were non-union. The union workers were employed in agriculture, food, mining, chemistry, textile, metal, energy, transportation, security, and municipal businesses. There may be more union workers who have lost their lives. However, we have to state that union memberships on paper are not real organizations and that many unions do not acknowledge the deceased members, so we are unable to give precise information. We could not determine this especially in terms of public employees / civil servant unions...
We determined that in 2018 work- related murders took place in 81 cities across Turkey and in many foreign countries:
226 deaths took place in Istanbul; 81 deaths in Kocaeli; 70 deaths in Manisa; 69 deaths in Bursa; 68 deaths in Antalya; 66 deaths in Izmir; 56 deaths in Ankara and Aydın each; 50 deaths in Gaziantep; 48 deaths in Adana; 45 deaths in Denizli; 43 deaths in Konya and Sanliurfa each; 39 deaths in Samsun; 35 deaths in Mersin and Sakarya each; 33 deaths in Balıkesir and Tekirdağ each; 31 deaths in Zonguldak; 29 deaths in Hatay and Mugla each; 27 deaths in Çorum; 25 deaths in Kütahya and Trabzon each; 23 deaths in Adiyaman, Elazig and Sivas each; 22 deaths in Bolu and Kastamonu each; 21 deaths in Kahramanmaraş; 20 deaths in Karabük and Mardin each; 19 deaths in Diyarbakır and Kayseri each; 18 deaths in Eskişehir and Osmaniye each; 17 deaths in Ordu; 16 deaths in Çanakkale, Düzce and Malatya each; 15 deaths in Isparta; 14 deaths in Burdur, Nigde and Sirnak each; 13 deaths in Aksaray; 11 deaths in Afyon, Artvin, Bartin, Giresun and Rize each; 10 deaths in Bitlis; 9 deaths in Erzincan, Erzurum, Hakkari, Kars, Siirt, Usak, Tokat and Van each; 8 deaths in Edirne and Kirsehir each; 7 deaths in Bilecik, Iğdır, Kırıkkale and Kırklareli each; 6 deaths in Amasya, Ardahan, Karaman and Sinop each; 5 deaths in Batman, Gumushane and Nevsehir each; 4 deaths in Yalova and Yozgat each; 3 deaths in Ağrı, Bingöl, Çankırı, Muş and Tunceli each; 1 death in Bayburt and Kilis each; and 33 deaths abroad.
Our main demands in our struggle
1970 workers in 2016, 2006 workers in 2017, 1923 workers in 2018… A reality insuppressible by the capitalists and the government continues scorchingly every year. Work murders and occupational illnesses have reached alarming levels, unemployment and debts continue to increase, and the workers remain unorganized. Some workers lose their hopes and end their own lives in desperation, while some others struggle to find other forms of resistance…
This is where our slogan "Worker Resistance for Life" comes from. This is the point where the working class should organize, should stand in unison and solidarity, and struggle for equality, freedom, brotherhood, sisterhood, and peace, which are the universal values of working class. We should ORGANISE to live and let live.
At this point, our urgent demands are:
1- 98 percent of the workers killed were not member to any union. Working without union membership brings death. Workers' participation is a prerequisite to prevent work murders, and to be able to work healthily and safely. Workers can only acquire that through unions. Union workers in Turkey are often fired as the capitalists don't want unions in work places, or they bring the unions they like. Going even further, the government bans press conferences, meetings and strikes organized by the unions, thus prohibiting the right to collective-labour bargaining. The pressure on HESA labour councils, worker's representation and on union organizations in general should be lifted. The prohibition of strikes should be brought to an end.
2- In work places, workers are arbitrarily made to do works that do not fit the job description. Work hours reach ten to twelve hours per day. Overtime pays and the rights to leave are denied. While subcontracted labourers have especially been subjected to such horrible conditions, rented labour now brings even worse practices that are no different from slavery. In private sector as well as the public sector, all practices of subcontracted or rented labour should end.
3- The bosses, bureaucrats and politicians responsible for work murders are usually not prosecuted. Those who are prosecuted are often the occupational safety specialists who have been made the scapegoats. Courts do not punish work murders, instead they release the offenders through fines divided to twenty-four installments. Bosses, bureaucrats and politicians responsible for work murders should face trial.
4- ILO and WHO data suggest that for each "death by occupational accident," there takes place six "deaths through occupational diseases." According to Social Security Institution, however, 500 workers on average have occupational diseases each year, and almost none of them die from it. The policy of concealing occupational diseases should be abandoned and an approach that diagnoses and prevents such diseases should be put in place under the coordination of our health organizations.
5- Responsible for supervising work life, the labour inspectors' dependence on political powers should be precluded, providing the 'Work Inspection Board' to be an independent organ of supervision comprised of social stakeholders, with labour organisations having a stronger say in the direction of the board.
6- Employment/job security and humane living wage are the two pillars of protection of labour rights. Minimum wage must be raised in order to ensure adequate minimum standards of living, and dismissals and unemployment must be stopped.
7- Transportation, housing, and nutrition rights are indispensable to health and life safety of workers. All employer-provided transportation must meet applicable safety standards, sanitary accommodation must be provided for all the workers, and food poisoning must be prevented. Public transportation, housing and food prices must be revised.
8- 60-70 child workers die every year. Although 2018 was declared as the "Year against Child Labour", 67 child workers lost their lives in Turkey last year. At this point, 4+4+4 education system, which aims to provide cheap labour for industry, must be terminated and child labour must be banned.
9- Working life begins early in our country and continues nearly for a lifetime. Retirement after a certain number of working years, which is a right of the worker, should be determined in accordance with gender and occupation. Age limit as a determinant in eligibility must be removed and the practice of gradual increment and designation of 65 as official retirement age, which means retirement in the grave, must be abolished.
10- Women's labour in industry services, agriculture, service sector and home was rendered invisible but 120-130 women die by work-related causes every year. Worker health policies must be focused on women.
11- Millions of refugee/migrant workers live and work in our country. Job, health, accommodation, and wage security must be provided for refugee/migrant workers who are deprived of basic regulations. Wage and work policies that set workers of Turkey against refugee/migrant workers must be abandoned as well as the policies that cause war in the region.
The working class will carry out the struggle for workers' health and safety.
