Kentish Borde: One comment ... Those who believe interest is declining as far as the young people [AND PAN] in T+T need to do a double take . I think PT is the real culprit. They are out of step with the efforts of the more than serious young people involved . The instrument has taken on a life of its own and has spread like a raging fire worldwide . Limited ideas and partisan thinking + truckloads of curry favor are the problems in the Mecca of the Steelband.

Kentish Borde left out CORRUPTION and TOBAGO BACKWARDNESS!!!
But he is right: THERE IS NO SHORTAGE OF MONEY -- THERE IS ONLY A SHORTAGE OF IDEAS THAT MAKE MONEY FOR PAN TRINBAGO.
And with THAT PRESIDENT (instead of DUPRES or AMAR or KERON VALENTINE) -- talk about SHORTAGE OF IDEAS!!!
LIMITED IDEAS!!!
Well people like KENTISH BORDE and BUGS and CECIL HINKSON does really come on THIS FORUM and embarrass me and make me LOOK SMALL the way DEY does summarize MY ARGUMENTS so succinctly when it does take me 100 POSTINGS and 10,000 words to say the same thing that DEM FELLAHS does say in SO FEW WORDS LESS.
Ah think ah going and sign up for a class in COMPRESSION OF STATEMENT!!!
LIMITED IDEAS -- Kentish must be talking about THE PAN TRINBAGO EXECUTIVE ... and not ME, eh!!! I have some real good ideas to GLOBALIZE PAN MUSIC!!!
