All 15 million was paid by government and still bands are not paid by Pan Trinbago for International Conference and Panorama.
Pan Trinbago’s audited financial report stated a 9.08 million outstanding debt for the hosting of the International Conference and Panorama (I.C.P.). In a bid to blame the government for half of Pan Trinbago’s 30-million-dollar debt, at the 2016 Annual General Meeting, Pan Trinbago’s President told his membership that the government owed Pan Trinbago for the International Conference Panorama. Hence the reason local bands are being owed. This information angered the membership and in reaction, the band leaders gave the executive a mandate that the government must pay I.C.P money and all moneys owed to Pan Trinbago or no Panorama in 2017. The executive could not execute the mandate simply because 9.08 million is not owed by the government. Actually my sources admitted that the 15 million the government promised to Pan Trinbago for the I.C.P was paid.
So why then are bands still being owed?
We were tricked again.
Sometimes we wait for a special sign from God to act, when all the while the sign was always in our faces.
Stop the ole talk and take the necessary action to force a meeting to get answers.

Fools rush in , where wise men fail to tread. It is quite obvious that most of us Pan Representatives have acted like fools ,for a few dollars more. I grew up in the old years of pan, What is happening now, was not taking place then. So drag your bow Mr. Fiddler.
Time for someone to go to jail.

bugs: Time for you to make up your mind on this forum. Do you want to be a FILM MAKER or a CORRECTIONAL OFFICER?
I was merely trying to alert the resort called "Club Jail" to reserve rooms for at least four executives from Pan Trinbago

Aquil: THAT STRIKE was the most POWERFUL WEAPON Pan Men had at their disposal in years. And both Keith Diaz and Doctor Dolly convinced the PAN PLAYERS not to strike with LIES and DECEPTIONS. That was THE LOST OPPORTUNITY. Nobody is thinking about PAN and KEITH DIAZ and PETITION and CIP until October to December again. And by then dey done forget about NINE MILLION and THIRTY FOUR MILLION and FORENSIC AUDIT.
They will get the $1000 for 2017 and PANORAMA PASSION will flow here there and everywhere and we will ride into ELECTIONS 2018 and KEITH DIAZ will WIN AGAIN.
You should know better than to be wasting your time pushing that PETITION. Andy Edwards is the first person since I am on this forum who ever came on and gave an ACCURATE READ on the PAN MAN MENTALITY. You cannot change that mindset with REASONING.
If yuh love PAN MUSIC, find a group of LIKE-MINDED people and put your energies into producing some decent PAN MUSIC for the GLOBAL MARKET. Your time would be better spent doing that. You can't beat KEITH DIAZ and DOCTOR DOLLY and their politics.
As I stated 20 times on this forum already. The ICP was a KEITH DIAZ strategy to cover the $5 MILLION he had previously stolen -- and that plan turned into a DISASTER leading to $34 MILLION in debt. I knew when KEITH DIAZ stole the FIRST MILLION and I have been complaining about it on this forum for years since I got that news. Yuh really think anybody cares?
Wake up!!! All PAN PEOPLE want is dey PANORAMA -- LOCALS and EXPATS. And after that DO BOTHER DEM.
Ah have to buy ah beer for ANDY EDWARDS one day!!! And I eh looking for no VOTE, eh. But he is the bravest man I ever see come on this forum!!!
Aquil, your "sources" should not be hiding...let us know the whole truth from the ones who want change.
