New Trinidad & Tobago $ money polymer notes

[zoom rader]

Serious question,
How does a farmer or other persons in the informal sector prove their source of funds. Most probably do not keep proper records (their fault perhaps), are not registered businesses and would conduct their day to day activities in all cash mostly. At the market, they aint writing receipts out for every bundle of bhagi sold and the middle men that buying from them not either.

Look at the case of india who did this same thing about two years ago, it largely failed.... no money launderers were held and the biggest impact was on those most vulnerable in the society.

Seriously, who taught this out? What was the real intent?

Impsbert and Jenny Prime-ass laughed at those that sell bhagi bro.

If it was me I would walk with my cows to the bank to show my source of funds

[hong kong phooey]

what going to happen to all these people who flood out and cannot leave their house to come to the bank ?

[Dizzy28]

Is how the sycophants defending this whole process as foresight in crime fighting. Same names I remember for being so against the SOE because of the inconvience to citizens.

I glad you spotted it, was waiting to see who would observer this.

Had this been the UNC doing this all hell would have broken on tuner.

Wasn't referring to Tuner specifically. Usually watch the comments on articles on local news stories.
Should have clarified.

obviously even the banks weren't in the loop and this exercise was meant to surprise, we have to ask ourselves how serious the issue has to be to justify such organized chaos..

Who knows maybe our currency/economy is being saved/protected despite the inconvenience and beatup..

Maybe someone aced the counterfeit of the old 100 and we all have counterfeits and don't even know it ... some of those newer hundreds had an older design...always found that strange..

Honestly the first thing I thought is that it was for all the cash donations from contractors the members of the former administration allegedly collected.

As idiotic and bereft of any ethical standards as the Waterfront 41 are you really don't think after 4 years they all would have found a way to dispose of any large cash sums they "inherited"??

Wouldn't that require getting US$

And wouldn't that be easy to track and not require us to submit all them Mamoo and Bhowjie to 3+ hour lines and stupid questioning from overworked bank counter staff.

This was in the making for some time now.

The art work have to be produced by hand and then computer , approved by the goverment. A few new samples are made and then one chosen.

The plates take some time to make as . It's time consuming.

It was not an overnight operation and was timed for Xmas.

Certain folk appears to have been given the heads up on cleaning and shipping thier money away long before all this.

This is just to make sure the top crime lords remain untouchable.

With the herb free bill it was all timed to fit in.

Meem know if to put this in the crime thread, because some barber does charge all 200-300 for a small trim, so I not doubting the man.

'Barber' goes to bank to change over $1 million cash

A man walks into the bank with over $1 million dollars and when asked about the source of funds, he says he is a barber.

Others are walking in with as much as $2 million in cash. Some are attempting to buy up to a million dollars in jewellery and to buy cars with hundreds of thousands of dollars.

These are some of the transactions the banks and law enforcement officers are seeing as the transition from the old to new $100 bills takes place.

One bank has told the Government that it has pushed out $150 million in the last two days. another, $120 million.

"Some of the examples will shock any law-abiding officer with persons turning up with large amounts of cash and can't explain where they got it," National Security Minister Stuart Young told today's post-Cabinet news conference.

He continued: "We've had quite a few instances of persons turning up and claiming to be part of some professions that you will be surprised to be carrying more than $1 million in cash."

Finance Minister Colm Imbert later added: "Some are finding it difficult to fill out a source of funds declaration and that's a challenge for the banks. If they say they got it from savings, it's proving a challenge. In cases like that persons will be advised to go to the Central Bank to change the notes."

However, National Security Minister Stuart Young made it clear that even if they go to the Central Bank, they will still have to explain their source of funds.

But those who conduct suspicious transactions, will not be told that their transactions are being monitored.

"We are being advised by counsel every step of the way and there is a crime of tipping off," Imbert noted.

He added: "If someone engaged in a suspicious transaction and looks questionable, the bank official is not allowed to tell that person."

Young said that there are law enforcement officers who are part of the process and stationed where they need to be, based on intelligence.
