Pan Trinbago has announced that there will be no pool on the Greens for the Panorama Semis this year.
The pool was introduced last year, but the decision faced heavy opposition.
The Vice President of Pan Trinbago, Mr. Byron Serrette, said the Pool at last year's Panorama Semis was simply an idea they toyed with.
"We brought a pool into the Greens last year, we get licks for it, it didn't work, we removed it. So we are coming with different things all the time."
Falling oil prices have impacted the competition that was birthed out of an empty steel oil drum.
According to Pan Trinbago President, Mr. Keith Diaz, the budget request to the Government cannot be accommodated at this time.
"That budget was sent in by the NCC and the Minister of Finance at the time said that the oil prices had dropped and right now they cannot attend to that. But we will wait until the price go back up. As patriots we will have to go with the regular prize money this year. Nobody is disagreeing with that. So right now we are going with the same prize monies as we went with last year."
CNMG will be bringing you all the news and coverage of Panorama 2015 and all events under the auspices of Pan Trinbago.

I am sorry that you don't understand basic stuff man. I think you are call yourself that "WORD" Mr. Diaz could and would never Express himself in that way by thinking that the Oil prices will be going up this Week, Month or Year. I am ashamed of you man!!!
Big Bloody Deal !!!
How magnanimous, yet how naïve. If you are waiting for the price of oil to "go back up" then you know nothing about finance, commerce or world trade. It won't be going up before carnival.
chuppidiee.
