Caribbean governments could create a national infrastructure bank to remove the concern from sovereign debt.This was the suggestion made by Minister of Works and Infrastructure Jack Warner in his address during yesterday's Seminar on Cooperation in Finance and Infrastructure at the third China-Caribbean Economic and Trade Co-operation Forum.The forum was held at the Hyatt Regency, Port-of-Spain.Warner was responding to Finance Minister Winston Dookeran's suggestion of developing a new type of financing for infrastructure.Warner said with a national infrastructure bank, money for infrastructure could be borrowed independently and would not be an addition to sovereign debt.He said inefficiency in infrastructure could result in reduced economic growth.Warner described the China-Caribbean forum as a timely intervention and a manifestation of a shrinking global village. He said it set up a paradigm where resources were now available outside of the geography where a country was located.Also speaking at the seminar was Jamaica's Works and Transport Minister, Mike Henry.Henry said that in order for the Caribbean to benefit from any trade agreements, ministers of works and Transport within the Caribbean must come together to develop a Caribbean transport hub.Henry told the audience that with the Panama Canal being completed in 2014 large ships would need a hub in order to distribute goods and services in a timely manner.Henry believed that an open skies agreement would be needed in order to capitalise on the outreach."We have to encourage airlines to connect in order to connect our people," said Henry said.
