RowLee tell Chinese investors to come to Trinidad ..



But ..

They came and saw and you throw them out ..

Chinese want residency and work permits to work work work .. but Dilly singing ..

You really think Xi Jinping does not know what PNM doing ?

They will only come for about 2 years and then move to the US. Chinese main goal is to get to the US.

I am pleased to see a PM go to China and not carry a whole contingent of 1%ers.
Last time a T&T PM went to the Land of the Dragon she carried an entire street of contractors from Millennium Lakes.

Little Disneyland Stuart did not have to pay for his trip.

He was PM's carry on luggage .

At least he's a minister.

Today in T&T the "minster" standard has fallen to below ground level

Tell us which one is doing an excellent job ?

Maxie Cuffie, you not hearing any complaints about him.

Ok.

Still not see the goal of this PM's China trip.

When Xi Jinping was in Trinidad his wife Peng Liyuan gave children a check for 1 million dollars (TT).

Well is bess the Chinese invest in Trinidad because under Trump USA seems to be moving more isolationist and less interested in investments in Trinidad.

Based on what I`ve seen from the Chinese one belt one road plan a lot of countries already benefiting, rather to have than starve because is Chinese, the USA has always been exploiting Trinidad especially for spying so bess we invite the Chinese once they giving us $$$ plus they seem to be hard working people.

" The Office of the Prime Minister explained that it anticipates that the strategic partnership will allow Trinidad and Tobago to tap into the tourism market in China "

" .. Yesterday the Prime Minister’s Office said Dr Rowley agreed that once Chinese nationals hold either a United States or Canadian visa then they could also be eligible to travel to Trinidad and Tobago .. "

" ... Prime Minister Rowley indicated that the properties of T&T asphalt render it the best quality asphalt for paving an airport tarmac .. "

Should you laugh or cry today ?

Government frustrating the Energy services industry

asphalt free (govt owned), but labour/prep/processing/paving/bobol is not. Paving is a big budget item, so doh oversimplify it.

This is major forex coming IN. And that's a big deal.

Is there any chance of PNM legalizing Cannabis for recreational purposes?

Would Dr Rowley be willing to attend a scientific debate on the important of Weed as a medicine?

Moody’s disagrees with Imbert on deficit

Rating agency Moody’s disagrees with Finance Minister Colm Imbert claim of a 2.5 per cent narrowing of the fiscal deficit against GDP this year. It is forecasting a wider 3.5 per cent deficit and sees downside risks to Government’s revised revenue targets announced in the mid-year review.

As the country counts down to the 2020 election, the agency is also forecasting that Government will not get the parliamentary majority required for passage of the Property Tax Act and the Revenue Authority which will prevent a more significant increase in non energy revenue.

In its analysis of the mid-year review which was released yesterday, Moody’s said while Government said it expects the fiscal deficit to narrow to $4.2 billion or 2.5 per cent of GDP for the year ending September 30, its forecast is for a “slightly wider fiscal deficit of around 3.5 per cent of GDP,” which is still “substantially narrower than the 8.5 per cent deficit for last fiscal year.

Based on this nominal growth forecast, Moody’s said a fiscal deficit of that size will allow government debt to remain broadly stable at 63 per cent over GDP for the near to medium term. Beyond 2018, it expects that slow implementation of fiscal reforms to prevent further narrowing of deficits.

It noted that while higher energy, non-energy tax revenue and lower capital expenditure will narrow the deficit, Government revised down its projections for total revenue collection in 2018 because of lower asset sales. However, it expects to collect more revenue from the energy and non-energy sectors.

Government expects energy sector revenue to increase to close to eight per cent of GDP. Moody’s said this is because of higher oil prices which triggers mandatory payment of the Supplemental Petroleum Tax when oil prices cross US$50 a barrel. For the first six months of the fiscal year oil prices averaged US$59 a barrel.

Increased gas production, according to Moody’s, will support higher revenue collection from the energy sector. With full year production at Juniper in 2018 and prospects for gas production at Shell’s Starfish field to start in the second half of this year, production could reach 3.8 billion standard cubic feet a day by the end of 2018.

Moody’s said revenue from royalties will increase by about $2 billion, compared to the previous fiscal year.

In terms of the non-energy sector, corporation tax revenue increased by more than half a billion dollars in the first half of fiscal 2018 because of the increase from 25 to 30 per cent. Moody’s said this “should provide an additional boost to tax revenue going forward.”

However, the rating agency said it sees downside risks to Government’s revised budget, particularly as it relates to asset sales. While Government expects to raise $4 billion from the Initial Public Offering (IPO) in the National Investment Fund, Moody’s is not as optimistic.

It also sees downside risks to non-energy related tax revenue and expects only a “very gradual recovery in the non-energy sector” as well ass “lower tax collection from households and from the value added tax.”
