Beverley pick the wrong LIAISON OFFICER and she pick the wrong VEE PEE and she pick the wrong ERO and she pick the wrong TREASURER and she FIRE the RIGHT PRO and leave the post empty for a year. So how on earth could she expect to have a PROGRESSIVE ORGANIZATION without the proper human resources.
Part of MARIE TOBY'S job (which I have defined many times before) is to visit STEELBANDS and discuss their issues with band leaders and band members and then provide reports to the EXECUTIVE so that appropriate action could be taken to improve the LOT of the STEELBANDS.
If SAN CITY STEEL ORCHESTRA and AQUIL ARRINDELL are owed $70,000 in non-paid performance fees -- what do you think is the total outstanding sum owed to the 180 STEELBANDS across TRINIDAD and TOBAGO. I would guess TENS OF MILLIONS.
Isn't it the RESPONSIBILITY of THE PRESIDENT OF PAN TRINBAGO to right these wrongs? Or is the JOB OF THE PRESIDENT to drag these bands into more performances (PANORAMA PERFORMANCES) and have them PLAY FOR FREE or PLAY FOR A PROMISE OF FUNDS that will never be paid?
I don't think that MARIE TOBY has lifted a finger since that appointment other than to run around TOBAGO flashing HER TITLE.
But I have bigger TRINIDAD HEADACHES this morning because ROWLEY gave the OWTU the PETROTRIN REFINERY for FREE (A NO MONEY DOWN DEAL) to the same group of people who mismanaged the operation to 2.2 billion in debt in 2017 (and caused them to close down in 2018) and he expect this same crew to suddenly turn efficient and bring PROFITABILITY to the REFINERY. ROGET own the OIL REFINERY now and he going and RUN IT. And this is after he borrowed 2.7 billion to pay them off for firing them.
Well between PAN TRINBAGO (BEVERLEY) and PETROTRIN (ROGET) ah doh know who worse than who!!!
