The government moving bad too, what are they waiting on to shut down this industry things getting from bad to worse yet they continue to sit on their hands as per usual. One million in damages as reported by TSTT , taxpayers will be required to foot that bill while the criminals remain at large.

that second dealer who come out and talk playing smart though
he just fraid they really clamp down and the gravy stop totally

allyuh every stop to wonder how a scrap iron yard opens every day and have huge sums of cash stored to payout everyday,
must be on a much larger scale than a casino
do they pay taxes or report to anybody ?

what are the logistics of these cash movements, what do they do with the forex they collecting from foreign ?
are they part of the central bank know your customer procedures ?

The scrap iron lot not too far from the airport just appeared at the side of the road like an illegal dumping ground eyesore and somehow it's a legitimate business ground now.

How TF that could be legal and legit I dunno.

But as I say, every time the association head appear on TV, the sooner he might join Robocop, Burkie and the land rover in cash fisherman on the celestial party bus.

govt needs to stop doing nothing & at least implement d temp ban on copper like d scrap dealers suggested , not no 4 mths but at least 6 mths

d other metals is a complicated story but time to make a start rather than doing absolutely nothing ...

Ban needs to be longer like 2 years. If it’s 6 months people will still tief and stockpile because the payback is good.

What’s the cost to those affected by scrap bandits? That should be directed to those defending these pests

We don't use scrap copper here. Ban it's export and in the interim period implement a certificate of origin programme before restarting exports.

None of which would be difficult to do and there are several agencies who can assist (exporTT, Customs, MTI [who already are responsible for the Scrap Metal Policy])

export is not solve the issue.

if they stop copper export but keep iron an alumnum, ppl gate, burglar proof an car parts will get raid out to make $$$ an quota.

tge problem is NO POLICE INTERVENTION.

no amt of regulations going solve the problem if police don't do the job to stem crime

Lawlessness

These people attacking essential national infrastructure now. And the government not doing enough. This should have been stopped with hard and forceful measures by the authorities. It's like "let's just see where it goes." Authorities needs to send a stern message to the root cause.

Get informants and find out immediately which yards buying it. It's not like these pipers stealing cable to go home and hug it up yuh know, somebody buying it!!! Then lock it down and find all the stolen material. This scrap yard business organized like a drug mafia. No regulation, no controls, no oversight.

The police will do their job of laws adjusted for prosecuetion or partners responsible for putting men behind bars do step up.

When you arrest a theif you have to assign a value to the metals confiscated. Half the time nobody shows up and the duration over which you can detain someone without charging them has passed.

All that work for nothing and they have to set the theif free till next time. Me eh blame them of when they see metals getting looted they pass by "awoah top dog, scene?"

To which the theif reply "ah dey fadda, long time no see"

Powleece "yea, well we making de rounds dey, allyuh good?"

Thief "yea, well yuh know how it goes, taking it one day at a time"

Powleece "jah bless, where allyuh theifing next"

Thief "ova so, we de see some lines dey"

Powleece *takes down location and proceeds to ignore calls pertaining to scrap iron men in that zone"

A few moments later

"Officer"

"Awoah, sponser a lil something for de boys nah"

*Police and thief meets up by hawk and spit bar*

And they all lived happily ever after.
