ALL I WANT is for ONE TRINIDAD PAN GENIUS to make some PAN MUSIC that meets my taste!!!

WHAT A COUNTRY!!! The highly intelligent and educated MINISTER OF CULTURE pouring money (MILLIONS OF DOLLARS) into a corrupt PAN TRINBAGO ADMINISTRATION to produce a corrupt STEELBAND COMPETITION

It's not to say that she does not know that PAN TRINBAGO is a beehive of CORRUPTION because executive members have resigned and spilled their guts in the MEDIA. And she even promised to AUDIT the corruption -- but excuses abound!!!

Now the part about
