For years I have been on THIS FORUM talking about the PAN TRINBAGO DEBT which I first estimated at $5000 and currently ranges anywhere between 30 and 54 million -- depending on who you talk to. And of course I was always attacking THE RIGHT HONOURABLE KEITH DIAZ for mounting such debt. But, of course, in actuality I was more concerned about the THIEVERY than the debt because as I have said against much resistance on THIS FORUM: DEBT IS NEGOTIABLE!!!
So the DEBT never really fazed me too much. But is ah OLE TALK FORUM and yuh does have to MIX IN some OLE TALK with the SERIOUS TALK. (Right: OSWALD ALEXANDER!!!)
Yet people on THIS FORUM keep asking: who wants to take over a BANKRUPT COMPANY? And how we are going to get rid off all that debt. So I will tell you people a TRUE STORY.
Ah was talking to a man who runs ah STEELBAND in NORTH TRINIDAD recently and he was telling me that PAN TRINBAGO owing him $40,000 right now. And just so the man blurt out that thing so hard in TRINIDAD right now that if they offer him ah $20,000 he will take that and settle the debt. And that is exactly why I was never really too worried about all the debt people does be talking about concerning PAN TRINBAGO.
Because, as a REPRESENTATIVE of PAN TRINBAGO, I could go to that man PAN YARD with ah BRIEF CASE full of $10,000 IN CASH (DON KING STYLE) and ah pen and ah written agreement and get that man to sign that agreement saying that the $40,000 debt has been satisfied with a FINAL PAYMENT of $10,000 and get the man to take a picture accepting that $10,000 with a smile.
Allyuh could EXTRAPOLATE!!!
My biggest concern about PAN TRINBAGO is a LACK OF IDEAS!!! IDEAS that could stimulate PAN PROGRESS and bring SUPPORT and ASSISTANCE to the PAN PLAYERS.
Ah hear plenty PIE IN THE SKY IDEAS presented during THIS CAMPAIGN but ah still looking for one single idea that could be brought to fruition and start showing beneficial results to the organization in a reasonable time frame.
I eh feeling good and meh usual self today at all!!! Ah feel like ah WASTE all meh time on THIS FORUM trying to PUSH FOR PAN PROGRESS. Dat ting yesterday BLUNT MEH PAN SPIRIT!!!
Thank God CALIFORNIA have the BEST MARIJUANA in THE WORLD!!!

Claude! I'm sure you've heard the old axiom "You cut the head of the snake another will grow in its place."
I say Pan Trinbago is a SNAKE, no matter who is at the HEAD, its still a SNAKE.
I say Review the Act of 1986 and AMEND the CONSTITUTION.
You can't put a SQUARE peg in a ROUND hole. Is it a CULTURAL Organization or a BUSINESS operation???
