"Real bad idea, I would think that a proper business plan would have been put in place before this decision was made."

Well this deserves a HEADLINE: After the first 6 months in office MARCUS ASH and BEVERLEY have cleared 16 MILLION$$$ of the KEITH DIAZ DEBT

If the 60 MILLION DOLLAR NUMBER was accurate that means that they only have 44 MILLION$$$ left to erase.

A DOUBLE-EDGED SWORD facing PAN TRINBAGO with their PANORAMA PAY-PER-VIEW SUCCESS

I actually want to CONGRATULATE PAN TRINBAGO (BEVERLEY RAMSEY-MOORE) on running a financially successful broadcast of PANORAMA 2019. In my books, A PROFIT is a PROFIT and the fact that at the end of the PANORAMA SEASON -- KENNY PHILLIPS could present

Well, I find that given the MAGNITUDE OF HIS SUCCESS, DUVONE STEWART was not given enough RECOGNITION on THIS FORUM which I think he deserves from his 20,000 FANS on WST!!!

He is never going to beat DUVONE STEWART in that MEDIUM BAND CATEGORY (not in Trinidad 2020 - 2030). So why risk his reputation and go get fed to LOCAL WOLF JUDGES.

My GUESSTIMATE is that about $40,000,000 was SPENT on PANORAMA 2019 -- and what do we have to show for it!!!

That $40,000,000 could have BUILT OUT a massive EVENTS CENTER/HEADQUARTERS which in turn could have generated at least a 10% annual CASH ON CASH (ROI) -- forever and ever ... AMEN!!!
