Pan Trinbago President Keith Diaz Hospitalized

Trinidad & Tobago, W.I. - In light of the fact that the President of Pan Trinbago, Inc. — Mr. Keith Diaz has had a medical emergency today [January 5, 2017] at around 1:30 p.m. and had to be rushed to a medical facility, certain transactions critical to the issuing of cheques had to be suspended.

Pan Trinbago urges all panists with existing cheques to refrain from going to the bank until further advised.

The Central Executive Committee quickly came together and unanimously agreed to appoint Mr. Richard Forteau to act as President.

As a consequence, the Emergency General Meeting that was called to address pertinent issues relating to Panorama 2017 and other relevant matters on Saturday 7th January 2017 at 1:00 pm at the Grand Stand, Queen’s Park Savannah would be postponed until further notice.

In light of the circumstances, if ever we need togetherness is now; we urge members to be united in prayer.

Please be guided accordingly.

Respectfully,

PAN TRINBAGO INC T.C.

Michael L. Joseph
PUBLIC Relations Officer
Pan Trinbago Inc. T.C.

  • I would like to wish the president Keith Diaz a speedy recovery on behalf of the members and executive of the BAS our thoughts and prayers are with him and his family.

  • Certainly, we pray for Diaz's very speedy recovery so that he and his evil cohorts (wrong doers) continue with business of the day, correct the wrongs and provide fair treatment to Steelband members. GET WELL VERY SOON.
  • My powers of comprehension need to be honed considerably. I went to school from four to seventy two and yet can't find words to respond, so respectfully, I withhold comment.
    See allyuh in de bank later, eh?
    When ah come back I'll read de letter again, somehow ah feel ah missin' sumptin.
    • The lines in the bank never moved as fast as they did today, all yuh hearing is "go to PanTrinbago", next, "go to PanTrinbago", next, next. I leave the line before ah reach. On a serious note, it's sad to see the kids who played pans for panorama 2016 being turned away, and we expect them to carry the flambeau into the next generation of pan? Yuh mad ah wah! What's the incentive, when you have a bunch of con artists/tricksters doing that to the youth?? What's the incentive??
      I'll buy my 2016 Christmas ham next year.
  • It is said that Jesus Christ taught us to pray for all sinners, including thieves so, I guess we ought to abide by our teachings.

    On another note here, the last time I checked, it became law in this country (Trinidad & Tobago) that "IT IS ILLEGAL TO ISSUE A CHEQUE FROM AN ACCOUNT THAT DOESN'T HAVE THE FUNDS TO HONOR IT", therefore on this stand I say, the Signatories and Officials of Pan Trinbago who would have distributed these cheques should be arrested and charged for FRAUD.

    I CALL UPON ALL PANISTS OF TRINIDAD & TOBAGO TO WITHHOLD YOUR TALENTS FOR 2017, AND COME OUT AHEAD OF THE GAME, AS IT OFTEN COSTS A PLAYER MORE THAN ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS (TT $1,000.00) JUST TO PREPARE FOR A PANORAMA SEASON, NOW THEY ARE BEING EVEN MORE INHUMANE TO ASK PLAYERS TO GO THROUGH THIS ORDEAL FOR A MEAGRE FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS (TT $500.00). IT IS HIGH TIME THAT ALL PANISTS TAKE A FIRM STAND AND DEMAND RESPECT AS MUSICIANS, ESPECIALLY FROM THE PAN GOVERNING BODY!!!!!!!!!!!!

    JAIL ALL AH DEM ARSES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    • First of all what is the problem health wise with Mr. Keith Diaz? what's the big secrete? what's really wrong with him Mr.Richard Forteau. Some how Pan Trinbago Executives believes that their members are darn fools, or maybe stupid people. Who are they think they are fooling. What about all the money Mr. Diaz has being spending on himself? Cars, house etc; many people knows about these things. Do you think that Mr.Forteau hands is all that clean? give me a brake. Every one of PTB executives are all getting a piece of the pie. PAN PLAYERS don't be fooled with their BULL SHIT. Pan Players should say enough is enough' No Panorama for 2017 with PTB or even with NCC until they get their ACT together. Say to them we are not your SLAVES. Do they really know how much time and monies these players put into their preparation for this money making event?. Where are all the other voices in the pan fraternity? WHAT A CRYING SHAME,
