PNM in Gov't(2015-2020)

How come y’all not protesting though? By that logic y’all also like how things going?

You ever see 10 people protesting and made a difference?

I’m pretty sure nearly half the population upset so why aren’t they protesting? Even if it’s purely Unc supporters that’s a good few hundred thousand.

Minister in the Ministry of the Attorney General Fitzgerald Hinds has lamented the marked absence of community protest over the gruesome killing of 15-year-old schoolboy Joshua Andrews.And he contrasted this response with the uproar which came from the Beetham community when the police arrested two people (who were alleged to be gang leaders). Speaking at yesterday's meeting of the Joint Select Committee (JSC) on National Security, Hinds, who is the chairman, noted that when police arrested the two people, the outburst and protest in the community disrupted the movement along the Beetham Highway.

^Just like the people at the "Conversations with the Prime Minister" town meeting in Point Fortin last year. They were lambasting Sh!tkicker's arse until he asked if they wanted him to call elections now.

Everybody shut up and sit dong yes.

Hinds does have a point though. When police arrest someone, everybody see, cry advantage and protest. Members from the community kill your own, nobody see, cry "please stop" and no protest.

Many here have said the same thing.

There are two sides to this and it is all due to the trini bligh.

A community will protect its own residents , these folk know that they are criminals but see them as a robin hood figures. If it is an outsider then they may talk with caution.

Police on the other hand are not saints some work hand in hand with bandits running racket. Sure police will arest folk but only when it effects their operations .

Now we have the establishment a five member "Implementation Committee" chaired by alleged financier and one man investigator Christian Mouttet, and also includes Goebbels Young's father Richard Young. Their mandate is to "liaise with the private sector to determine, and facilitate Government assistance for specific development projects"
We'll tell you what projects we want to undertake, and you will fund it, and we'll rake in a nice profit at the end of the day.
In other words, payback time.
Note that the public/private construction drive went nowhere, with only NH getting a contract, which was subsequently mired in controversy as the Government refused to be the guarantor of the loan that NH wanted to take out. So, kickbacks, nepotism and corruption all rolled up into one nice red ball.

'Stop suffering the children, open this school'
...parents demand action

PARENTS of children attending the Ramai Trace Hindu School blockaded the roads in protest early Monday demanding that the school under construction be completed and opened.

The building is 90 per cent complete but now overgrown with bush and infested with rodents, the parents say.

For two years, the pupils have accommodated at the Hanuman Milan Mandir in Penal Rock Road.

The children have to be ready by 6:30a.m. for the first bus to take them on a 45-minute journey to the mandir in order to attend classes.

President of the Parent/Teacher Association Sherry Ann Persad-Bhagwansingh said the parents are fed-up with the Ministry's inability to have to school completed.

“The Ministry is not delivering on its words. We were promised since December 2015, to be able to occupy the school and this has not come to pass. The contractor was not paid and left the job. We hearing that the Ministry have no money. So our kids have to suffer each and every day to attend school. It is tiring for a child to have to get dressed so early in the morning. By the time they reach they are tired. These are little children we are talking about and the Government have no pity on them,” said Persad-Bhagwansingh.

The school has approximately 270 students and the moral and academic levels of the school is lowering.

Persad-Bhagwansingh said: “We have dedicated teachers and parents who try their best to help the children with their work. they do well at times but there is room for better. When they children are tired for having to go to school far away, it will lower their ability to focus on their work. academic level will go down. But this is not something the Ministry cares about. They do not care about our children.”

The parents and children previously protested in Port of Spain in 2016 outside Parliament to highlight their concerns.

Construction of the school began in September 2014 and stopped a year later when there was a change in Government.

Currently, the students and staff are faced with overcrowding, health and safety issues as the mandir was not constructed for such utilisation.

When contacted for comment, Minister in the Ministry of Education Dr Lovell Francis said the school remains the Government's top priority for action and were attempting to mobilise contractors for the completion of the school. He gave no timeline on when the school will be completed.

Oropouche East Member of Parliament Dr Roodal Moonilal joined the protesters. He said there is no reason why the Government should not be able to complete the school.

Biche High School remains closed

decade-long wait: The compound of the Biche High School.

(BI) Feedloader User

The promise of Education Minister Dr Tim Gopeesingh and other Members of Parliament that the mothballed Biche High School would be open in time for the new school term tomorrow, cannot be kept.

Villagers continue the wait, now a decade long.

First voiced from a political platform in April by then candidate for Mayaro Winston "Gypsy" Peters, the promise was later repeated by Gopeesingh after taking office in May.

Gopeesingh said the reopening of the school would be one of his main short-term priorities and assured that things would be put in place to ensure the school would be reopened tomorrow.

Residents of the area were excited and hopes were high because they believed that at long last their children would no longer have to travel for hours to get to school, paying twice and sometimes three times the normal fare to get to school every day.

Two weeks ago Collin Partap, Minister of State in the Office of the Prime Minister and MP for Cumuto/Manzanilla, where the school is located, shattered those hopes.

He said there was no way the school would open in time for the new school term.

He said Gopeesingh and a team from the Education Facilities Company Limited (EFCL) visited the building three weeks ago and samples of gas emissions and soil had been taken from around the school and had been sent for testing.

The school was built at a cost of some $30 million as part of the Secondary Education Modernisation Programme (SEMP), during the UNC's (United National Congress) 1995-2001 term in office.

But before its opening, there were rumours that there were oil and gas emissions and land slippage at the site.

The former People's National Movement (PNM) administration refused to open the school on grounds that it was unsafe for use.

Partap said Gopeesingh recently indicated that the Ministry was still awaiting the results of the tests but even if the green light is given, the school will not open in September.

On Friday, residents continued to hold on to the fragments of hope that the promise would eventually become a reality.

One woman who has two children who attend the Rio Claro High School said she has to spend $40 a day to send her children to school but if the Biche High School was to be opened all she would have to spend is $10 a day.

"It would really make a difference," she said.

Radhica Ramrattan, a grandmother of four, said her charges are forced to get up at 4.30 a.m. every day to get to school in Manzanilla and Rio Claro.

"We are not seeing signs that it will open. I mean to say, we know how it is but we waiting for the school to open. I have four grandchildren and the two that going Manzanilla sometimes they get the maxi and sometimes they don't. Every day they get to school at 6 a.m. and have to wait until 8 a.m. when the school open. Everybody will be real happy if the school open," she said.

UNC councillor for the area Glen Ram said "we are hoping for the reopening of the school because it is set to benefit the entire community. Biche is a rural farming area that has had transport problems over the years. So if the school is open, it will cut the cost that parents have had to pay. It will also encourage literacy as well as other skills training that can be taught through distance learning".

He said, "We are hoping that we get the okay for this school so that the Biche Presbyterian School will also be opened."

would rather spend money on mega stadiums than education. not saying that they dont spend on education, just saying that they would rather not.

Its a school in a yellow zone...talk done

Perhaps if the former PP gubberment and Coonilal took some of the BILLIONS paid to contractors such as TN Ramnath with qhis mansion in Clarke Road then the school could have been built.

Surprising how he could find time to join protest when in opposition but when in government you coulda hardly see him.
