Sunday, September 13, 2015
AS expected, a collective sigh of relief has blanketed the nation following the end of the 2015 General Election in Trinidad & Tobago.
The People's National Movement (PNM) leader has somehow manoeuvred his way into the driver's seat and, because of a mysterious decision to extend voting outside of extraordinary circumstances, suspicion will forever haunt him as to the legitimacy of the Government and Cabinet he now leads.
At least half the population already sees him as illegitimate. And with a 20-year reputation of ill-tempered and erratic outbursts, serious credibility questions and a slew of allegations, Keith Rowley appears to be kicking off his term in very bad form.
Following a botched swearing-in, where somehow Rowley thought it sensible to swear in Cabinet members before he himself took the oath of office, Rowley read from a speech prepared for him by someone who clearly doesn't understand the man.
While one would want to think that his election proves some kind of political superiority, or even the greatness of his party, that's not so. Rowley's election, in fact, proves the power of marketing, especially when his opponents put up a multi-level fight that failed to truly represent the former Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar, and the unprecedented term of performance and delivery she led.
In Rowley's entire political career he has never taken a political stand for the people; he has never taken up issues that affected anyone but himself; he destabilised his own party (the PNM) twice, and all through his career some people have refused to work with him because of what they say is his arrogance and irrational behaviour.
His most memorable outburst came after he decided to out his former leader, Patrick Manning, because he was fired for attempting to bully the Cabinet to get his way. His then leader would finally admit to the nation that he had had as much of Rowley as he could take, describing him as a raging bull who couldn't take 'no' for an answer. It also speaks volumes about a man who has gone so far once as to accuse the former Government of conspiring to murder a journalist. When it was later found that his e-mails never actually existed, Rowley and the PNM immediately went silent and avoided questions on what became known as "email-gate".
Building on this dubious reputation, during his campaign Keith Rowley made a number of promises, including the end of the Ministry of Local Government, an increase in salaries and benefits for himself and his Cabinet ministers, widespread spending cuts, and that elected members of parliament would be made to do the work of the people they represent, and not all occupy Cabinet positions. With mere days since the general election, Rowley has already recanted on some promises. He has taken the local government ministry and combined it with a Rural Development Ministry, placing his long-time friend and PNM chairman, Franklin Khan, as minister. Trouble is that the former Persad-Bissessar Administration undertook a comprehensive rural infrastructure transformation programme that leaves little work to be done in rural areas.
On his platform, Keith Rowley also boasted of the diversity of his party, one that has historically been seen as pro-Afro based political organisation. He also boasted fresh new faces, but the line-up of his Cabinet, so far, tells another story. It is, perhaps, another indication of a Government term that can be expected to be filled with broken promises and even repeats of the PNM's history of discrimination.
A look at his Cabinet tells a story. Faris Al Rawi, an old party stalwart who supported Rowley's bid, is now attorney general, but the more popular newcomer, Stuart Young, is Al Rawi's junior.
Clarence Rambharat, who was resoundingly rejected by the Mayaro electorate, has been appointed minister of agriculture, as if to say to the people, "No one really cares what you think."
Camille Robinson Regis, who was forced out of the Manning Government for misusing a Government credit card, has been returned to the senior post of planning and development minister.
Fitzgerald Hinds, who has long enjoyed his reputation of being anti-Indian, has been appointed to the mega Ministry of Works and Transport. Hinds has never been able to explain how he was able to afford a TT$14-million (US$2M plus) mansion in the upper-income Maraval district.
Colm Imbert has been appointed minister of finance. Imbert once almost faced criminal negligence charges for building a Grenada stadium that started falling apart, risking the lives of thousands. This is quite like the Tarouba Stadium project started by the PNM, where the budget was increased five times without the project being completed. The stadium is now considered unsafe.
Marlene McDonald has been appointed minister of housing and urban development. While in Opposition, she established a reputation as being resentful of development projects in communities outside of Port of Spain and the East/West corridor. She led the rebirth of the phrase "south of the Caroni River". She has also never fully answered for having her husband benefit from hundreds of thousands of dollars in grant funding under a paper NGO during the previous PNM Government.
Shamfa Cudjoe has been appointed minister of tourism, coming on the heels of years in Opposition singing the song of victim for Tobago, claiming the island should have been getting more out of the national budget, but refusing to entertain questions on what Tobago stands to contribute to the treasury.
All of these appointments, notwithstanding, Avinash Singh who has been the lone East Indian front-liner for the PNM, having fought and lost two general elections in the name of the PNM, has been given the most junior government post of parliamentary secretary in the Ministry of Agriculture. Singh's position is even junior to a Tobago PNM MP, Ayanna Webster, who was appointed -- seemingly as an afterthought -- as a minister of state in the Office of the Prime Minister.
The Ministry of Energy and Energy Affairs has been handed to an unknown in Nicole Oliveirre. The previous PNM Government left the energy sector in shambles, with oil and gas production plummeting, and with the exploration and energy services subsectors almost fully collapsed. With a newcomer now having to sit across negotiations with some of the most powerful CEOs on the planet, we await news of a reversal of the growth achieved in the past five years.
And who can forget Maxie Cuffie, the new minister of Rowley's information machinery. As a former editor of a weekly tabloid, the TnT Mirror, one wonders whether government information will be similar to the stories in the highly distrusted tabloid.
Trade and industry is now taken by Paula Gopee-Scoon, one of Trinidad & Tobago's most failing foreign affairs ministers under a previous PNM Government. We await news on what will happen to undo the work done by former Minister Vasant Bharath who earned the reputation of having the Midas touch by revolutionising the ease of doing business in Trinidad & Tobago.
What these appointments and revelations all point to is that Trinidad & Tobago is in for a rough ride. Not because of low energy prices, but because Keith Rowley's Cabinet has brought together the usual suspects who, all told, spent over $400 billion between 2001 and 2010 and, by the time they left office, left behind incomplete, over-budgeted projects, with contractors being owed billions. The PNM has never been able to manage the economy outside of boom conditions, and Trinidad & Tobago might just have made its final fatal error by putting the PNM to manage what will certainly be the decline of what could have been a great nation.
Already, people are asking, "Oh, my God, what have we done?"

Griffith: Nothing wrong with Lara's special envoy job
Published on Sep 15, 2015, 10:24 am AST
By Kim Boodram
FORMER government minister Gary Griffith yesterday defended a visit to storm-ravaged Dominica by special envoy, cricket star Brian Lara and said a background in disaster and emergency work was not necessary.
Griffith, in a media release yesterday, said Lara's appointment as a special envoy was not unusual and followed a worldwide trend that saw persons of a similar professional background becoming ambassadors.
Lara visited Dominica at the weekend on behalf of the government, having been appointed a special envoy by newly-elected Prime Minister Dr Keith Rowley last week.
Griffith noted yesterday that Lara has served as an ambassador over the last five years but that he, Griffith, considered Lara to have been underutilised.
“Icons” like Lara are valuable in that respect, Griffith said, adding:
“These individuals, based on their success in arts, music or sport, make them the ideal Ambassador to assist other nations, because their mere presence as a statesman, greatly assists in generating public awareness, and inspires a broad positive and committed action to the concern.”
Griffith also stated that to criticise the appointment of Lara would be akin to criticising bodies lik the United Nations for appointing persons like retired footballer, Michael Ballack, as an Aids Goodwill Ambassador because he is “not fully qualified in the medical technicalities in the subject matter”.
Griffith pointed out that cricketer Sachin Tendulkar, “who was arguably side by side with Lara as the greatest cricketers this generation has ever seen”, is the UNEP Goodwill Ambassador and is involved in similar projects dealing with Climate Change and Disasters in other countries.
“Our nation has a similar opportunity by having a world wide respected public figure like Brian Lara who can represent us in a similar role.
“The point being, this request is nothing unusual, and actually makes positive use of the international standing of our celebrity Sport Ambassadors,” Griffith stated.

McDonald: HDC ‘100 houses a week’ distribution put on hold
Published on Sep 15, 2015, 7:34 pm AST
By Kejan Haynes
Housing Minister Marlene McDonald says she’s given instructions to halt the 100 homes-a-week until Christmas distribution policy, which was started under the former People’s Partnership (PP) administration.
In August, then-housing minister Dr Roodal Moonilal said once the managing director and the chairman of the board of the Housing Development Corporation (HDC) remain...he hoped they’d distribute houses after the election.
But McDonald says she has to evaluate and assess what she has on hand before she could move forward.
“I gave instructions to the PS, well the former PS, that I want all distribution of housing on hold,” McDonald said yesterday. “I put a stop on the distribution until I assess. And that’s what this is all about this morning...understanding what the ministry is about in terms of the structure of the ministry and then we are going to go into those details as to the housing stock. ”
The Port of Spain South MP spoke to TV6 News just after moving into her new office at the Housing and Urban Development Ministry in Port of Spain.
She was meeting with her new permanent secretary Jocelyn Hunte and deputy PS Denise Duncan.
“As I said last week as I was being sworn in, I have to evaluate. I have to assess what I have on hand before we can move forward,” said McDonald.
She asked the public to be patient as it may take another week before the new housing distribution policy is announced.
McDonald’s other portfolio is urban development.
She said completing the government campus in Port of Spain is a top priority, as well as improving the inner city and east Port of Spain.
Going back on the 2020 development plan, Clifton Towers on St Paul Street was the first phase of redevelopment.
The previous People’s National Movement (PNM) government had allocated land on lower South Quay for the second phase of construction. The project was stopped by the PP administration and the land used for the now abandoned water detention pond, built by then-works and transport minister Jack Warner to alleviate flooding in the capital city.
“It’s now filled with water and grass and egrets. You know what supposed to have gone there? That was the second phase of the redevelopment of East Port of Spain. We were supposed to have done high-rise apartments there. And then, what we would’ve done when we completed there, we were going to remove those persons from Duncan Street, Nelson street and George Street and house them there.”
The third phase would have gone into the inner city with the reconstruction of Duncan, Nelson and George streets.
Those, she said, were the millennium development goals under the PNM.
McDonald lamented what she called neglect of East Port of Spain under the former administration. She gave the example of Plaisance Road in John John, where she said the state of the wooden apartments there would make some cry.
“I recalled for two years working with this ministry for homes to relocate those persons, it was never done and every time my constituents saw 100 homes being given out every week they called me and they pleaded and they cried,” McDonald said. “But I also want to say that a country’s resources belong to all. What we saw over the last five years was an inequitable distribution of resources. It will not happen under this administration.”
And while the PNM has been accused of limiting development to Port of Spain to the detriment of the South, McDonald promises the San Fernando Waterfront Project is still very much on the table.
“I think that it would be a nice face for San Fernando. I think the people would genuinely appreciate something like that,” she said.

‘...Attack on Hindus in campaign’
Published on Jul 21, 2013, 10:20 pm AST
Updated on Jul 22, 2013, 5:08 pm AST
The Chaguanas West by-election campaign has “an undercurrent of an attack on the Hindu community”, United National Congress deputy political leader Dr Roodal Moonilal said yesterday.
“We will not see it at first sight...you don’t see the undercurrent so sometimes you can participate in your own denigration without knowing. It is not coincidental that there is an attack on the (children of Dr Suruj Rambachan and Chandresh Sharma)—a Hindu child. What they are trying to develop is the idea that if your children are successful they thief to get there... It is a way to demonise your community,” he said.
Moonilal and several of his Cabinet colleagues, including Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar, Attorney General Anand Ramlogan, Transport Minister Chandresh Sharma and Food Production Minister Devant Maharaj, attended Sunday morning service at the Devi Temple, Caroni Savannah Road, Chaguanas, on the invitation of Maha Sabha secretary general Sat Maharaj.
He noted that the Land Rover sport utility vehicle (SUV) that had been leased through the Housing Development Company (HDC), a State enterprise under his purview, for his use was now “parked in a garage somewhere”.
“I driving the same vehicle for two years, a Rover SUV and is only when the campaign start and Jack Warner start campaigning they start attacking me for the vehicle. So I stop using it because I say I don’t want to distract from the campaign. It is now parked in a garage somewhere. It is the same money we paying every month and nobody saying anything. You can pay the same money every month once Roodal Moonilal not using it. It is the same money, you know, but I must not use it. I must still be on the bull-cart,” he said.
“If I use a Rover or a BMW, that is not for you, but if Keith Rowley was doing that before that is fine. That is good. What he is saying now in 2013 is put you back on that bison. They want you back there and want to use different strategies. This is a time of awakening for us. You must see what is happening. You must see the attack.”
He referred to his former Cabinet colleague, interim political leader of the Independent Liberal Party (ILP) Jack Warner only as “he”, saying that his supporters were “only putting mala (a Hindu garland) on this fella. They put about 20 mala on him, you couldn’t see his face. But when I look through the list of people recommended (in Chaguanas West) for housing I didn’t see anybody named Mala, you know”.
