Full circle. Almost Severely damaged in fire Not so long ago, St Kitts main crop was sugar cane from which it pro- duced sugar, mostly for export but also for domestic consumption. In fact, sugar was so important to the society and the economy, that St Kitts became known as Sugar City. In those days, people consumed sugar with abandon; as raw sugar, as muscovado sugar, as sugarcakes and as swank, just to name a few. Fast forward to today, where the country is on the brink of introducing a sugar tax, designed to reduce the consumption of sugary drinks. They didn’t say sugar, just sugary drinks. The authorities say that high consumption of these sugary drinks is linked to an increase in morbidity, specifically diabetes and its complica- tions. They have justified this tax by quoting data from several sources, data that showed up to a 10% reduction in consumption of sugary drinks. They didn’t say how much of a reduction is expected as a result of this tax, nor by how much the illness is expected to decline. What was not clear was whether sugar, the actual product, would also be taxed. If it is, prepare for an increase in the cost of living. If it isn’t, prepare for a switch to household produced sugary drinks. A tax on sugary drinks is a step in the right direction; we are not negat- ing that. But it needs to be part of a holistic approach that includes nutrition, exercise, diet, social medicine, just to name a few. There was a time when there was household and community consump- tion surveillance by health workers.

Bangladesh presented an unwavering spirit to success- fully defend 123 runs against Australia in the final T20I in Dhaka. The hosts bowled them out for 62 in the 14th over with the help of Shakib who snared four wickets alongside Saifud- din, who chipped in with three.
