Rovin · Postby **Rovin** » January 17th, 2018, 12:35 pm

it so ironical d pm is from tobago that u wuda thunk he have special interest like say how robbie had for his homeland , but shitkicker pressuring he own countrymen & making their lives soooo miserable ... look like once he forrin bank acct full of $$$ from sandals , ferry purchase & other projects that he cud care 1shit bout his own island , maybe he already planned after he retires to haul ass to go live in another country after he finishes ruining here

tobagonians on d other hand rel docile , is like their pm cud do dem anything & they go jes lie down quiet & take it like some mooks ..... wonder if d love for pnm so great they willing to do anything for their beloved party , even self sacrifice ..........

Do you fellas find it would make sense to construct a sea port on the northeastern side of T'dad, in let's say Toco, & lease spots to private ship/boat owners that act as hired charters? Of course such charters for hire would have to be inspected annually & even be made to pay a modest licensing fee to operate, essentially reducing the need for a state bought & subsidized vessel, & allowing Trinbagonians the ability to come & go as & how they see fit while generating revenue for the state.
That makes alot of sense....and would work, be convenient for citizens and tourists alike.....so thats y it would never be implemented by the relevant authorities....

Sorry, i forget is dis backasswards place we in
never mind

Yes, please take your forward thinking ideas to another country that isn't a s***hole. Like maybe one of the smaller Caribbean islands that will be taking us over as a dominant force in the region soon enough.

I do. Truthfully speaking i feel safe in tobago. i could enjoy the beach, at storebay, the restroom facilities are clean, short walk and i get good food with a variety, decent bars. Even when i drive up to argile waterfall or charlottesville i have no problem leaving my car open (could be because is a rental but my personal stuff in there ) and i dont feel afraid. I hit some of those places on Shirvan road and also have a good time. Back in south i have to worry if police doing breathalyzer around the corner , if i going to get rob when someone walks towards the bar.
And the price of flights is a big plus.

They don't have the breathalyzer in Tobago?

to me it has its pros and cons
pros
1/3 of the time to get there or less
Development to that part of the island
Reduce port traffic in port of spain
few people will get rich/richer due to the level of corruption in this country
possibly reduce flights to tobago saving loads of money

Cons
Toco to far road infastructure not there , better port facility should be Salybia but again some one will complain about the turtles
Drive from pos to toco 1.5 hours with above point single lane no overtaking loads of delivery vehicles.
loads of wastage of tax payers dollars

Don't think I know anyone who has no desire to go Tobago. Bago is always a perfect mini getaway.

JUHN Scarfy only proclaims his Tobagoness when hiding from floods, or trying to look like the little boy from the obeah area who grew up to be an Oreo.

They appealing for change...but we all know the majority of tobago likes it so.....also read that the new ferry is slower and has less capacity....

There was one from 1881 - 1930.

That is how the majority of Tobagonians came to Trinidad in the 19th to early 20th centuries.

we dont know that.

There was a private sector study that showed benefits to international shipping in that they do not have to come around and into the GoP thereby saving time fuel money

If they build it out-it could open up the Eastern side of the island.

They should publish this information.

It is either justified or not-based on proper qualified analysis.

we had donkey carts too-

A big part of the move away from trains had to do with the facts that we had an abundant supply of oil and refined same here.
The world was moving towards vehicular traffic.

There were pros and cons.

My boys-
I have one boy-he in school.
I emphatically disagree with the rapid rail.
leave the sycophant noise to those so inclined

Again our size,geographic realities,population and natural resource base is what would dictate our choices.
They did then....and they did now.

if you choose to ignore those realities-in second guessing a decision made decades ago...fix up.

Bullchit stop spreaing propaganda about moving away from trains.

Is was the then car dealers lobbying PNM to scrap the trains to open their market for new cars and the assembly plants that existed .

Redman · Postby **Redman** » January 22nd, 2018, 9:24 am

Sure the car biz was a player in the mix.

Jah bless the PNM else Tuner woulda be Trainer.

But there were other factors.
Decentralized transport created value and all levels in the economy.

In the same way that those in the chamber pushed for point Lisa's.

Or in IT push for modernization using their tech

You can't create policy without having solutions to support.
