They could just take a pirogue from Venezuela and land in Cedros/Moruga like all the other illegal Venezuelans.
No need for Customs and Immigration.

What de ass wrong with these 68 people who got Ramesh Lawrence Maharaj to send a legal letter to the government?

Deyalsingh should have said what was in the letter.

bluefete · Postby **bluefete** » March 21st, 2020, 11:22 am

40 of the 68 tested positive.

Postby **Dave** » March 21st, 2020, 11:23 am

Probably said to bring them back home forthwith.

bluefete · Postby **bluefete** » March 21st, 2020, 11:25 am

Should have left them out there until mandatory quarantine period passed.

Imagine that they wanted to use the law to allow community transmission. kudos to the Ministry of Health Trinidad and Tobogo

That is how Ramesh operates so I am pretty sure that is how it went down.

Dizzy28 · Postby **Dizzy28** » March 21st, 2020, 11:28 am

Ramesh should go meet with them personally

Blame Kamla in full flow - courtesy Stuartie.

Opposition wanted bars to serve food.

Why not though ?? I could go line up for 1/2 hr in Bucks or KFC. These half measures are seemingly a bit punitive

It will be released soon

It's good.

This is a matter which transcends politics but they can't help bickering.

The population wanted someone to blame, and the UNC just gave them one.

Now Trinis,

You see why i was saying that the Trinidadian mentality is the WORST thing in this country for Covid19?

The govt did a great job in advising ppl well in advance.....DO NOT TRAVEL

But no, allyuh Trini kants want to go on a blasted bess price cruise.....

The resources of the MOH is being stressed due to the irresponsibility, illiteracy, negligent, self-centered behavior of Trinidadians.

And then the nex setta kants in Magaraita begging to come home.

Allyuh doing very good.

Take notice it's not the poor suffers you guys routinely look down on that brought home and spreading around this virus. It's also not the poor suffers who decided it's better to go cruise that lean on the side of caution. As for mass gatherings check the cross tonight...
