"The cost to have her flown back was shared between her relatives in Japan and her friends from the pan fraternity in Trinidad." Good grief!

Surely to God PANTRINBAGO & THE CARNIVAL DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE should have borne ALL costs!!! WAKE UP PEOPLE. This is a SHAME ON YOU TRINIDAD.to have her relatives and friends pay for her body to be returned to Japan!!!.

I can give you ONE ASSURANCE!!! If KAMLA and the PP were in power they would have paid ALL EXPENSES for the return of the body!!!

It is indeed sad that the Government or the ex Mayor did not pay for her return - Clearly very sad for our people. It would be the honorable thing to do. Let's hope the powers componsate her family.
