Gas prices in Trinidad & Tobago

[eliteauto]

Men claiming that if the UNC had done this there would have been mass protests, however, the same men would have praised the UNC for raising the fuel by only $1.00 and said they were insulating us from the full brunt. WOFT

Under UNC it had good roads.PNM increasing their revenues and not spending it on the people.Meanwhile a prominent PNM minister buying a mall in a conflict of interest situation, but nobody saying a thing.PNM sycophants are hypocrites .But Kyamalah still tiefing out de mornay.If was Moonilal buying Trincity mall, it would already have busloads of protesters by the red house getting paid from state funds.Lewwe compare notes in jackaresery by parties nah.PNM will beat them in the north, south ,east and west in bad spending of the taxpayers money every time.But is Kyamalah still.

Rum shop talk passing off as fact is what the politicians love, and you doing it so well. Imbert buying Trincity Mall is exactly like Moonilal buying a mall in Holland, no proof of either but sycophants parroting the narrative. The economic situation between 2010-2015 and 2015-2022 is very different. That will affect how the country runs and that's happening globally. If you gonna criticize be constructive in it but instead you ball-gagging ZR every chance you get. Look above daring dragoon made some good points the gov't has failed to stimulate the economy, they have failed to facilitate ease of doing business when you pressure them on things like that you stimulate the general conversation. All that rum shop talk you and ZR and Dragon like eh moving the PNM come 2025, but hey console yuhself with who taking bull and how they voters racist

[shake d livin wake d dead]

Idk bout allyuh eh....but talk about ah lil pay raise nah....seeing that people love to push the "all over the world" narrative. Compare minimum wages from USA, Uk, New Zealand etc to Trinidad...

Make it make sense as to why people still on a 2013 salary!!

Under UNC it had good roads. . .

Who fool you on that? Go look at Sisters Road in Hardbargain as an example of a "good" road paved under the UNC, right in the then Minister in the MOWI/MOWT own backyard. Two of his buddy contractors paved that road for him and within six months it was in a worse condition than before the paving.

UNC was no better than the PNM. Sorry, UNC was better at hiding their corruption than the PNM.

[Chimera]

our shitty roads is real nonsense

they need to put road building and repair under ministry of works


tell them contractors hull dey muddac**t

install weight bridges all over the place because we all know its big trucks that passing on roads that not built for them that freaking them up

now it have material stockpile on agricultural land using roads that built for people to pass their lil tractor and 3 ton truck with produce maximum, big trucks passing with loads of material and freaking up the road that the farmers wait 20 years to get

real madness in this country and very simple effective solutions

in the bush where i living have 4 companies open their businesses . one doing scrap iron, one is 20 foot/40 foot trailers and the next one transporting fuel. the last one is trintrac have their warehouse.....endless heavy equipment on roads that not made for it

they ducking traffic by passing through the small old roads and properly freaking them up

yeah. one set of party politics BS.
trinidad aint gonna change until ppl put country first.

You two seem to like d alternative lifestyle, get a room

Aye I have a pardner who does live on this forum and try his best to know men business, what they look like, who they associate with and does call and message other men to ask people business. He always bashing women and does pretend he linking with women from the background he claims to despise. You feel he might like the alternative lifestyle too?

but ur bizzness all over tuner.

It is well known that you are part of the alternative lifestyle commune.

When tuners want to know where to get massages and sex toys you are the first to lean assistance.

Since the red government in power , u say nutting about corruption.

In UNC days every Monday morning u have some story to tell without any facts to back it up.

[dogg]

All this UNC talk is foolishness.

UNC is dead in the water.
Kamla and her cronies are un-electable.
Unless they clean house and team up with other parties, AND with a different leader. And with a diversified slate.

A top public servant told me recently this country have no money if increases were to be made along with the backpay that was due to each sector or union, what we looking at is the IMF

so not even a lil 'taste of pay raise' self?

[Dizzy28]

It would be crazy for any country constantly operating on budget deficits to offer any pay increase to public servants.

This country hasn't had a budget surplus since 2013.

All unions should suggest what should get cut to pay the increases they propose.

ZR, you come back with this foolishness?

I call out the PNM for their corruption in EFCL. Go do a search and you will see. I will continue to call out the PNM on corruption once I have my facts to back up my claims.

You obviously have time to waste with your, mostly, non-factual, posts.

Red government came in on a lie with all the answers and to give dem a chance.

[daring dragoon]

it dont take a physic to see that this is the last term of the PNM ever. after rowlee mash up the country nobody will ever vote for them again. just as they were booted out of tobago they will be booted out of trindad and rowlee will flee to exile with muduro just like jean bertrand aristide. he was exiled to Africa among others and worth over $800 million while most Haitians suffer. never again will the PNM see the corridors of power.

They are going to win again.Their voter base enjoys freeness and what comes after

Been dropping and picking up my son these last few days. From what I have seen its selfish and kantish behaviour causing the traffic on the EMR where I am passing.

Men (and women) coming out side roads and blocking lanes when they can't go anywhere and t Macoya intersection same thing, entering the yellow box and can't go anywhere but block the roadway.

Where are the traffic wardens to solve easily identifiable problems?

[Dizzy28]

Shucks ..my bad

Plenty of the schools honestly don't have parking for the couple hundred cars that coming at school closing time.

if you say so. i leaving this picture right here and see if you go vote for this in 2025. its a pluck shop somewhere in central.

[Dizzy28]

This is after the point of pickups we talking about. Apart from the Girls RC all the schools are off the EMR.

It's after pickups when trying to get back onto the EMR is where the bacchanal is

Guess gas price increase not affecting too many people - yet

ONE contributory factor for this, is the cipero road exit. that is only one lane.
a lot of traffic tries to get out through there. but its only one lane, riddled with potholes, and with normal businesses, so people coming on and off, crossing from one side to the next, so hampering how fast vehicles can flow out via that road, from under the bypass overpass.
that backs up cars, and locks in the other cars that want to go up cipero, or todd or up onto the bypass, or even gulf view link road.


if u can reduce the number of cars going there, it would ease up most of it. a suggestion, would be to use a shuttle service to get the chidlren out from the sando schools, to places outside of that lock down zone. like gulf city, south park, even c3 and mannie ramjohn(if that is the stadium in marabella), places wtih big car parks. from there the parents can pick up thier children.

lets napkin it. average school pupils -1000. if they do 4 trips, that 250. maxi holding 25, thats 10 maxis per schools doing 4 trips.
how many schools in sando? prolly around 30... and not all would need so many. so lets say 20. thats 200 big maxis, doing 4 trips compared to that same population being carried by hiluxes and aquas.

welcoming critiques of this here.... let me hear some brain storming.

Yea but let's be real. Pre-covid, the emr was always a mess from the time school done to shortly before work traffic finish.

And most ppl still running on a pre-raise tank of gas. Price of gas ain't hit most ppl yet

Who paying for that?

to get it rolling coudl be colab between the mayor and the schools, for the initial trial. and once it showing results, then the parents, coudl cough up the funds.

say, $5 per child. big maxi 25 x 5 is 125. 4 trips, 500.
i dont want the drivers to collect the funds directly. that should be cashless, like a ride share. and then pay the drivers weekly out of that. parents pay off a card, child uses card to swipe, or fone to swipe to get on the vehicle. a means of tracking use and to log where the child is.

5 per day is not bad cause they might easily spend 5 in fuel in the morning and evening traffic.

and for the driver side... from 630 to 830 am, then 2 to 4 pm for 500 not too bad.


one bad thign about this is... the majority of schools need to do this for the effect to be realized. if a few places do it, there wudl not be much drop in vehicles so, it would not seem like it works. is a full hundred or none approach, to trial it.

i not a sycophant for either party but to me its d other way around in that pee nm hides their crookery better than unc based on what we d public hear or or dont hear of put before us either thru traditional media or on social media

who 1 teef more or more corrupt than d other is always debatable but i doubt anybody can deny life was generally more livable & tolerable then compared to now ....

i not a kamla lickbattam & wish she & d other fossils wud retire & let new blood lead .... same goes for d pee nm side
