WGC: GHANA IMF GOLD PLAN REJECTION SIGNALS GROWING OPPOSITION
New York--Jun 29--Ghana's public statement that it wants the IMF to
stop its plans to sell gold to raise funds for debt relief is a
significant and strong signal that opposition to the plan is growing, said
Michael Barlerin, chief executive of Western Markets for the World Gold
Council. Ghana is the largest gold producer among the heavily indebted
poor countries (HIPC) which the IMF plan is aimed to help. (Story .18853)

GHANA WANTS IMF TO HALT PLANS TO SELL GOLD FOR HIPC DEBT RELIEF
Ghana--Jun 29-Ghana has said that the International Monetary Fund
(IMF) should stop its plans to sell gold to raise funds for debt relief,
calling the planned project counter-productive. "We have to bring this
proposal to an immediate end," Ghana's Minister of Mines and Energy Fred
Ohene Kena told Bridge. The IMF expects to set up a special fund with
money from the gold sold and use interest accruing from it to finance debt
reduction for highly-indebted poor countries. (Story .16721)
