Lol @ highlighter.

Is that like some photography phenomenon with light and refraction blabla that will cause a photo to have an obvious yellow hue in select places. I dunno. Honest question

If u look at behind the main tent you will notice that the quality of camera is poor so the pic quality will be as well.

No highlighting or photo processing as simple pnm minds would think.

It just a drone with a poor camera.

Why are people so obsessed with crowd sizes...

But ent das all the pnm was talking about less than 24 hrs ago.

Happens when you take a pic of a monitor or TV screen. Don't hate, appreciate it.

I thought it was this at first. I thought the pic came from a tuner watching tv but when rfari put it from Kamla page so I say is from the drone. Could be Kamla page took it from the tv feed to get a real time pic.

Well I can say with certainty that that pic wasnt part of the live broadcast. So I ask is it a photo taken from a drone that was uploaded to a laptop and then a photo taken and posted on kamala's official fb page?

I thought it was part of the live broadcast

Should of been though!

We saw that image on the large screens and it had "LIVE" written on the image.

So if rfari say it wasn't on the television broadcast then it was a feed from the drone to the large screens only.

How would I know? The point is, why the hell are people fixating on crowd sizes? As if that even matters.

I see the UNC has thrown 2 Hail Mary s on Lady Hailes Ave.....they take down 2 ad s for Mrs Ahmed and put up a sign indicating that the water front project is coming......

I absolutely certain PNM winning this. All the undecideds PNM in the last few days. I will bet you right now, if PNM doh win all yuh could take my girlfriend who I love very much. If they doh win, I will give you my Wiz Khalifa mixtape. All yuh could quote me.

Rowley you better appoint Manning as President eh.

quoted

but Kewell35, the PP piss off a lot of people these last 5 years, but mostly everyone who voted for them last time will do so again.

I still say it's gonna be 21-20 PP, but could easily be tipped 21-20 PNM with Tunapuna being the deciding seat.

I disagree, for the following reasons:

1 - Some pnm people were willing to risk losing the election to get rid of manning because he was delusional, so they voted pp

2 - Many of the floating voters were fooled by the Fyzabad accord, thinking that the pp would be a real democratic coalition. That myth was quickly dismissed.


The PNM is going to win, I had predicted 24 to 17 but after this weekend it could be by as big a margin as 26 to 15.

Is the "O" in vote supposed to represent Africa or the constituency of Mayaro?

Unity and Respect for each other and no discrimination and victimisation which is promoted under a PNM government!

http://www.trinidadexpress.com/20150905/news/8216jesus8217-sets-fire-to-pnm-stage

A 20-year-old man wearing a yellow United National Congress (UNC) jersey underneath a red jersey was arrested by police after he set the stage at the People's National Movement (PNM) rally at Eddie Hart Savannah in Tacarigua on fire yesterday.

When questioned, he told police his name was “Jesus”.

A knapsack belonging to theh man, containing candles, lighters and other paraphernalia, was also confiscated.

He was taken to the Arouca Police Station.

Around 2.50 p.m. yesterday following a performance by the Roy Cape All Stars the man mounted the PNM stage dressed in a red jersey.

He began spraying a fluid on the stage from a water bottle.

The master of ceremonies told him he could not spray anything on the stage.

At that point the man lit the substance.

A portion of the stage became engulfed in flames.

The man jumped off the stage into the crowd and attempted to flee.

Members of the crowd thwarted his escape.

He was handed over to a group of plainclothes police officers that ran onto the stage.

When his red jersey was torn off the UNC jersey was revealed.

Those in the audience groaned, with some calling for him to be thrown back into the crowd for a dose of vigilante justice to be meted out.

The master of ceremonies asked if the man was paid well to hamper the PNM's final rally before tomorrow's general election.

The fire was extinguished in no time and no injuries were reported as a result of the incident.

The stage sustained no major damage and the show continued uninterrupted.

If he really not mad it could very well be part of a PNM PLAN

we all know how sneaky and underhand the PNM is.

Put nothing past them!!!

NEVER FORGET EMAILGATE, DRUGS AND BOMBS IN WATER TANKS, FAKE CHEQUES, DENIAL OF VENUES FOR MEETINGS, LIES!!!

I wonder what are Rowley's plans after being defeated in tomorrows election?
Will he step down? Will he remain another 5 years in opposition, continuously calling for an election date? Will he cry foul?
One thing for sure...there's gonna be alot of infighting in PNM camp..

Let's wait and see............

PNM CROWD WHOA :eek::eek:

LOL what? LMFAO PP Rally is easily twice this right now and traffic line up like wow

The final results are in:

Hey sexy baby

Hey rfari. I hope all is well! I also hope you're voting RED on Monday. My family and I drank the kool-aid in 2010 and have since regretted voting for the People's Party. I really hope PNM get's a strong showing in Tunapuna, St. Joseph and La Horquetta/Talparo.

Another stereotypical PNM

"I am neutral, I am not voting, I vote unc last time this time I voting pnm, we voted PNM out last time, etc"

Rowley publicly stated this is his last time as Opposition Leader.

Hinting a pnm victory.

He said he has no intentions of being in opposition again.

Lewwe see if he backpedals!

He go get real pressure if he does

[intern]

If he doesn't win he will most likely have to step down as the leader. Same with Mrs. Persad-Bissessar, if she doesn't win this time things will not go well for her...

Look trouble now!

[intern]

For anybody who knows the UNC really well, how popular is Ganga Singh right now? Is he popular enough to become UNC Political Leader? Or are Vasant Bharath/Rambachan/Tewarie more popular than him?

Who is the most popular UNC personality after Mrs. Persad-Bissessar?

Gypsy just playing spy, he is a unc banton. Watch and see come couple of months he will release * leaving the unc was a wrong move at the time*

Actually yes, I can see him doing that if PNM does not win. If they win he will probably stay put.

Hi AP:

Nice of you to drop in after so long. I concur with your statement.

Rfari: Sorry for dropping in so rudely.

[neilsingh100]

Based on people I know it seems like most of the COP people that voted for the PP in 2010 are now voting for the PNM.

Regardless of who wins the economy is in serious trouble so hope whoever gets in power has the courage to the reforms that are needed early in their term.

I've heard from reliable sources that the PNM has the 'right plan' to get the economy out of the hole.

Remember what Manning said when the world went into recession in 2009?

IMF: T&T experiencing robust growth
Published on Apr 3, 2014, 7:40 pm AST


Trinidad and Tobago is experiencing more robust growth after several years of sub-par performance, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has said.



“With the end of maintenance-related outages in the energy sector, we project the economy will grow around 2.5 per cent in 2014, after growing around 1.5 per cent in 2013. The non-energy sector was fairly buoyant in 2013, which we anticipate will continue to be the case in 2014,” the Fund said in a statement Wednesday, following the completion of its annual Article IV consultation mission to Trinidad and Tobago, led by Elie Canetti, from March 18-April 1.



“The country’s external position remains healthy, with external reserves at US$10.0 billion, while the Heritage and Stabilisation Fund’s assets continue to grow. Serious data deficiencies hinder a more complete assessment of balance of payments developments, but our best estimate is that the current account surplus should continue to be in double digits (as a percentage of gross domestic product or GDP) in 2014, thanks to a strong rebound in energy exports from 2013. However, there are signs that the growth of imports, notably automobiles, may be picking up…The mission welcomes the government’s efforts to significantly reduce or eliminate arrears on energy subsidies, VAT refunds and to suppliers,” the IMF said.



The time for withdrawing the accommodative monetary stance of the past few years may be nearer as the unemployment rate has fallen meaningfully, credit to consumers and for real estate is growing at a relatively rapid pace, core inflation has risen, and interest rate differentials are shifting in favour of US interest rates, the IMF said.



The Fund also said fiscal policy should be set in a long-term context that ensures the country’s non-renewable energy reserves are used as a stepping stone to lasting prosperity. In addition, expenditures should shift away from consuming the country’s resources towards investing them for the future.



The IMF reiterated its previous position that Government quickly move to start ending fuel subsidies, consistent with the Fund’s increasing emphasis on this issue globally.



“Fuel subsidies are extremely costly and inequitable, starving the government of resources that could be better targeted towards poverty reduction. They also induce excessive reliance on automobiles, leading to pollution and traffic jams that have a materially adverse impact on productivity. In addition, overlapping social programmes should be rationalised and better targeted to the less fortunate segments of society. Revenue policies should be aimed at broadening tax bases to ensure a level playing field across activities,” the IMF said.



The IMF noted there has been measurable progress in easing the impediments to doing business and in financial sector reforms, although more remains to be done in both areas, and recommended government should continue to build on its successes to “unlock the country’s full growth potential”.



Beyond that, The Fund noted there remains a critical need for streamlining the government’s structure and improving the efficiency of the public service and the functioning of labour markets.



“The country would also benefit from reforms in procurement, corporate bankruptcy and bank resolution. Finally, we wish to place the greatest stress on remedying the continued shortcomings of the Central Statistical Office (CSO) in generating critical data, which hamper effective policy making and lessen transparency,” the IMF said.
