That was about two years ago so don't quote me on that.
Websource doesnt do ocean freight lol. Just spoke to them. There is OceanIt on the same compound as websource though and they do ocean freight.
Yeah that is shipping consolidation. What i tended to do with websource is just put my account on hold for pickup. And when all my items reach and clear in trinidad i release the hold so the driver can deliver or go pick it up myself. More times than not id go myself since websource is like 10 mins drive away.

Most of their earnings will be taken out of the country but should provide some foreign exchange into the system as they have to hire locals and buy TT with US to pay wages. They will probably be importing alot of their consumables.
Local tour operators may also get a cut but Sandals tends to keep a tight noose on the prices.

I wonder if this would affect their Tobago plans, The deal they got from the government was actually super sweet so they might still roll with it even if there are new owners.

The magic silver bullet might turn out to be lead, hopefully Tobago doesn't get lead poisoning. The idea of Butch floating a potential sale speaks to the idea that millennials have rejected he resort type vacation and instead are going for cultural immersion and experience type vacations. This has been floated to the Min of Tourism almost a year ago but still they not listening

When oil goes up the amount Petrotrin pays for same will go up. So what the firetruck you think we will pay for any type of fuel? It will cost more and when oil goes down we will still be paying the old price or the increased price. Who pocket do you think that will go in?
Come on think before you post, but then again is de old talk forum - No sense, cents or good scent will prevail herein ............

Pause for a second ... The current regime has talked about removal of subsidies and moving fuel prices towards its market price. To me that means when the Oil price is high then fuel prices are high and when oil prices are low then fuel prices are low.
What you are saying is they are looking at price fixing. If they do price fix next year 2018 when the oil price is still low it would mean when the price goes up we will still be paying low prices.
Also they are not "pauperising" us. They are weaning us off subsidies which will make us more competitive on a global scale.

Never see someone so eager to pay more for something, i bet you cant wait to pay your property tax too.... sad day in a country when the politicians convince their supporters that they making things better by taking more and more from them.

Increasing fuel prices to what we supposed to be paying is different from "taking more and more".
I think we should be paying property tax but not in its current form. The valuation on rental is subjective and leaves the door open to corruption. The money should also not go to a consolidated government fund but instead there should be a frame work for the money to be spent in the local area.
You know you don't have to be in total opposition to everything the opposing party does, you can see the good and bad in things.
