BEVERLEY SO BACKWARD she doh even understand how NEWS does travel in the PUBLIC DOMAIN. After she get all that LICKS YESTERDAY she suddenly want to EXPLAIN TING TO EVERYBODY.
KINDA LATE, BEVERLEY!!!
Marcus Ash-Tray Pan Trinbago is owing the world 60 MILLION dollars because everyone allowed that to happen. BLIND LOYALTY caused Pan Trinbago to owe 60 million.
The same Facebook that everyone is ranting on in 2019 existed before 2009 when others weren't President. If humans had used it back then the way they used it now then MAYBE things might have been different.
And as for the economics of taking the medium bands to Tobago:
1. Guests houses in Tobago at that time won't be charging a hiked up price (in U.S) like the Trinidad guest houses around the time of Carnival that PAN TRINBAGO are required to pay.
2. The THA has bought into the idea and committed to assisting in the venture. The assembly can influence what the Tobago businesses charge. Don't you think the saying "eat little and live long" will go a long way for Tobagonians if they charge fairly and the event is allowed to continue annually?
3.The Tobago bands come faithfully annually when they make it to the next round and has ALWAYS showed up and performed. That clearly shows that there IS a way that it can be done.
And finally, for the record, all this secrecy about this executive is clearly the sudden muted oral apertures of many persons who have no negative news to spread around anymore. Ever since elected in October 2018, THIS executive has ALWAYS kept the membership updated with all matters of the organization at meetings which is what we are required to do. I'm amazed that updates never got out the way this topic in particular did.
1. The membership was informed that in 6 months into office, 16 MILLION of the debt has already been cleared....THAT didn't make headlines like this topic.
2. The bands received their prize monies a week after the finals....THAT didn't make the headlines either.
3. The drum factory was resurrected, and will soon be mass producing drums soon and in a greater capacity....THAT ain't good enough for headlines either.
4. Pan Trinbago has been working along with stakeholders to have bands soon be able to benefit from copyright royalties, the youth arm is about to embark on research projects to write unrecognized pan pioneers names in history, the standing committees are soon to be formed....but NONE of these things matter.
4. Pan Trinbago has been able to use the pay per view method to generate a form of revenue that can have potential to boost income....still NOT good enough for recognition.
But at the end of the day it's an honor to see the organization back in the tongues of everyone whether in support or not because at the end of the day, any publicity is good publicity because at least the organization is being mentioned.
In closing, what MUST be noted is that PAN TRINBAGO CANNOT make these decisions to split up the panorama categories. This decision had to be passed by the membership. And with 82 bands voting for, 10 persons voting against, and even less abstaining, the persons complaining should first start by checking their band management who supported this move. And before anyone speak about the blind loyalty thing with this executive, it should also be noted that the very same membership did vote AGAINST another idea that was presented by the executive in another related matter on the very same evening of the said meeting that gave birth to this conversation even happening.
I'm NOT asking everyone to buy into the idea. All I'm saying is that you can't just say that this will not work because what was being done before wasn't working either. So something different MUST be done. And if this change doesn't work, it's ok to try again.
And EVERYONE know I have a history on social media with my mouth, and I really did my best to NOT insult anyone, so just in case anyone wants to go back to report me as a social media bully, tyrant, scourge, et al, I will tag my colleagues so they can read this in advance.
Beverley Ramsey Moore, Carlon Harewood, Laurel Amor, Dane Gulston, Gerard Mendez, Darwren Pharaoh Greenidge, Keith Simpson
BLESS!

Well hello to YOU Mr Claude Gonzales,
I know it's been a while and I'm quite sure you missed me. I see you've also missed the honorable President of Pan Trinbago, Mrs. Beverley Ramsey Moore.
Let me start by saying that YOU ARE RIGHT about one thing at least. You have been fighting since the debt was under 5 million. I think it's your fighting that made your name a household name on WST!
With that being said, I hear, see (read) many of the questions/queries/concerns/etc that were placed on the social media forum. What I will say is that they are ALL valid concerns and the executive IS fully aware of it.
But I assure you that in time to come, all matters would be dealt with where clarity of the new schedule of Panorama is concerned.
Marcus Ash: Don't let BACKWARD BEVERLEY mamaguy yuh and have you saying that "EVERYONE allowed that to happen" because if you check the records on THIS FORUM you will see that I (CLAUDE GONZALES) had been fighting KEITH DIAZ and the PAN TRINBAGO EXECUTIVE since the debt was UNDER 5 MILLION DOLLARS.
