The false notion that Pan Trinbago wasted, squandered and stole money given to them by the government is all blatant lies and innuendos used to carry out a bigger plan. All monies received from governments, was given to finance a particular show or event, in this case, the Panorama, and every cent was always accounted for through our yearly audited financial statements. If the cost of the show is twenty-five million dollars, and we have been hosting it for four years, no doubt we would have spent one hundred million dollars on the hosting of a show for the government, as agreed by both parties. Do the maths for about thirty years. All monies went into production of the events.
Pan Trinbago Inc T.C. have always enjoyed a close and cordial relationship with our line Ministry. What has happened to create the kind of adversarial position that now seems to exist between this new and youthful Minister and the organization? I see it as a lack of experience and understanding of the nature of the position, or an implementation of someone else’s agenda with a passion. Tanty Joan or big sister Marlene would have applied more class and style in their dealings with groups under their charge. Dialogue would have been the very first intervention. Not bacchanal and scandal in the public domain. Vilifying Pan Trinbago is not the answer. “Remember, those who steals my purse steal trash, but those who steal my good name, robs me of that which does not enriches him or her, but makes me poor indeed.” Pan Trinbago never had access to the public purse to the extent that it needed protection from them. That statement is quite misleading. The executive of Pan Trinbago, looked on in horror recently, as people holding high office, try to create mob rule in our organization, and waited with bated breath on their desired results. But they were disappointed by the outcome.
What can be done now to clear our good names that has been tarnished across the globe by all these false allegations? Who is going to compensate us for the stigmatization of individuals and organization? All the hard work that was done in our efforts at globalization. Can you help, madam minister, or Mr. chairman of NCC? Check your relationship with the service providers to see where the money gone, and only then the public will know that the interest groups that creates the Carnival, does not benefit from its hard work. It was always a labor of love. Where are the millionaires in Steelpan? Today, the Carnival Arts are under duress. Bring on a commission of inquiry into the Carnival industry and the operation of the NCC now.
