The WI teams seems to be badly out of it and looks like a group not very excited about playing the game. The situation is probably the cumulative effect of constantly admitting that batting is not constructively present. Everybody just seem to be going through the motions and hoping for the best. Th...
I wish T&TEC well in their investigation to get to the root cause of this latest black-out. Indications seem to have existed at least since late Dec. when we suffered a less severe national outage, that something in the distribution network was in need of attention. Our key service providers whi...
The dynamics of traffic flows this year will be very unusual since many of the seasonal, work and school circumstances are not what we are accustomed to pre covid19.

Whilst waiting for my gate to close before driving off about 2 weeks ago, I reflected that thankfully no mishaps with falling gates had taken place for some years. I must admit that I did shake my head and accepted that it was just a matter of time and hoped that it wouldn't be so. Poor workmanship,...
The underlying principles on which our education system has evolved into what it is today have long needed reexamination and a resulting revamping of same.

TSTT continues to be an organisation which seems to be just drifting along day by day, and not concerned about getting ahead of the pack in their particular business which globally seems rich in opportunities.
The design short comings are evident from the failure of the work here and it is difficult to understand how the engineers 'underestimated' the destructive nature of the impacting hydrological forces which the load bearing base would be subjected too. I expect the failure that is taking place may we...
The rapid test do play a role in the mitigation strategy to control the spread, but they are subject to many usage directions (eg best results 3 days after possible infection etc.) and non have achieved accuracy standards like the PCR. Unfortunately, I have experienced the loss of a family member wh...
I am not sure that citizens who have failed to buy into the need to be vaccinated should be vilified, since most of these individuals are responding to an outlook driven by their deeply embedded learning and even values. The challenge we face nationally and even globally is really how can we bring t...
I have always held that an officer or employee of any organisation should not be using said organisation's letter head to tendering his or her resignation. My research into this practice seems to support my position.
This situation demonstrated a serious lack of planning on the part of those with responsibility to safe guard our economy from inflationary pressures. Even with what seems to be a concession to allow for some controlled imports, what has happened is that the price thresholds suppliers will look for ...
Our statistics have reached and is holding at a levels which suggests that we are now all sitting ducks. The national discourse keeps going around the same circle of ideas and there seems to be no evident break-out strategy to address the need for ending the cycle. The lack of consensus and common c...
There is a ole saying "who pays the piper calls the tune". One must wonder if the THA will find support forth-coming from the Minister Of Finance given the state of play today. Tobago may find itself in the 'damned if you do and damned if you don't' mode. The brutality of Tobago's circumst...
Folks, just do the right things . The reality which I can now attest to is bad and our existing systems which includes retrieving your lost one remains, is becoming a challenge and medical personnel cannot sustain prerequisite levels of support and care. Our threshold by age for infections is now ca...
We really appreciate all your expressions of sympathy and encouragement. I used all my knowledge and persuasive skill to encourage acceptance of the vaccine and was convinced that there are other deep reasons why there was no acceptance. In fact, we must consider issues such as real fear,embedded re...
My family this morning has been plunged into grief with the loss of a love-one who has succumbed to the virus. Unfortunately, this special family member resisted availing themself to the available vaccine and just lost the battle. One cannot be certain that being unvaccinated is the only reason for ...
The simple fact, is that underdeveloped and developing countries are always in need of funding and China is in play. What creates issues are the negotiated terms and conditions of the financing package as well as the inefficient use of the funds and in many cases the misuse of same. When countries f...
The ministry has advised of a significant number of road repair projects, I however am yet to see one. One wonders if the Ministry has mistakenly sent their crews in another country or make be they are just 'ghost' crews.
This saga continues to leave a very sour taste in the mouth of a large number of citizens and is certainly bringing The Equal Opportunity Tribunal into disrepute. One wonders if ego erodes common-sense. The question now becomes....Is the Tribunal really committed to protecting the rights of the disa...
Radio stations playing parang and christmas music as well as ads. with all kinds of sales and I am struggling to get in any kind of mood actually I find myself wondering if its just a bad joke. I just have great difficulty processing the pain and suffering embracing our country with a tradition of f...
Calm down Trinis, There will be no lockdown. Really don’t know what allyuh beating for. 2 years now allyuh suppose to be following the protocols. Makes no sense bawling and howling like monkeys with the high cases and deaths. The citizens are to be blamed for their continued irresponsibility. Wear ...
In my environment, I am blown away by the numbers of individuals at the bars, casinos and other like establishments. I really feel like my reality must be some kind of illusion and I need to seek help.
We are right smack in the middle of a hellish scenario and solutions to our problem seem to be difficult to determine with the confusion reflected in the various discussions for the way forward. Our economic well being was in a free-fall prior to the panic and it seems with the pandemic resident amo...
Apparently we have some local casareep being produced. I understand that the product isn't of the quality as that of the guyana product, but it is being used with some level of satisfaction. If you look around it will pop-up in some groceries and markets.
Diwali is very much like Xmas for the hindus. We are fully mobile and citizens are moving around almost normal, infection rate are certainly going to rise. Our mortality rates are not going to be unique and until our vaccine uptake mirrors the experience of the countries that are gaining control mor...
I am quickly coming to the conclusion that sooner or later, I am going to be infected. The daily challenge is to do all in my power to reduce my exposure and additionally avail myself to approved medical interventions which may strengthen my ability to fight. I do worry about those who are in denial...
This is really a suggestion that we can use first world surgical solutions and this comes as no surprise. The question still remains, how can the average citizen access this kind of health care with the age old deficiencies and inequities self evident in our public system.
