PNM govt neglected young people of 2002
Published: Thu, 2011-09-15 23:56
I feel duty bound to pen this letter after listening to MP Donna Cox complaining of the People’s Partnership hijacking the Making Life Important programme and also of not being allowed to speak at its launch. The other reason is the level of debate in Parliament from the Opposition. This letter refers in the main to World Bank report No 220088TR, dated June 2000. I will quote extensively from this document as I go on.
At that time, 2000, I was the minister with responsibility for social development, sport, community development, gender affairs and consumer affairs. Please be aware what you read now was the situation in or prior to 2000. The report could very well be called a situational analysis of the youth: “In recent years Trinidad and Tobago has experienced increasing social problems relating to its youth population despite the economy’s improved performance. A major preoccupation of the government [UNC] is to understand the causes behind the situation and how to overcome them.”
The overall goal of the report was to assist, which would have ultimately led to an improved youth development programme. This now leads me to the objectives, which were:
• Uncover and analyse key issues facing the youth.
• Explore a rationale for investing in youth development activities.
• Review current services for youth.
• Examine policy and legislation relating to youth and capacity for implementation.
• Propose intervention to reduce the risks faced by youths and increase the potential for social human capital development.
At the time the study was done there were two principal factors which increased youths’ risks. They were restricted access to a secondary education system and high-level youth unemployment. The report pointed to poverty, crime, drug culture, early sexual activity and pregnancy. The then government was credited for making progress in addressing these issues. I wish to quote this very interesting part that said “secondary education reform will take several years to be achieved.” Our government shortened this wait and immediately introduced universal secondary education. Remember?
On the transition to secondary education before we acted, a substantial number fell behind academically and about one-third was left out altogether: “Youth of African descent are particularly vulnerable in this regard.” The cost of youth crime and school dropouts provide strong arguments for investing in interventions to reach out to at-risk youths, the report opined. This document examined seriously education reform, training skills development, sport and youth activities, and programmes for specific risk groups. Investing in youth would have brought about significant social and economic benefits.
The report was very comprehensive as it analysed youth, their behaviour, their environment and risks they faced. The UNC government was forced out of office not long thereafter but in little time we had the Youth Affairs arm of the ministry pilot three projects in an attempt to curb the menace we saw coming. These projects targeted Datsnville in Enterprise, Gunhill, Cap de Ville, Point Fortin and Laventille. Concerted efforts were being made by various government agencies to chart positive paths ahead.
As I mentioned earlier, this document, well researched, could have been a critical guide to have dealt with problems youths faced 11 years ago. I know the document was in the hands of the government (PNM) and was not heeded.
Today again, rather than acknowledging the problems of some of its core supporters, the Opposition plays politics. When I heard Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar in her winding up of the state of emergency debate announcing decisions to right the wrongs mean- ingfully, I remembered this re-port. There is hope. We must build our country, united and moored in sound moral and spiritual values. MP Cox, you were left out of a programme but your government neglected the young people of 2000 who are now adults. I would not have begrudged your government if you had hijacked this report.

PNM BLANKED
Originally printed at http://www.trinidadexpress.com/news/PNM_BLANKED-131569748.html
By Ria Taitt Political Editor
October 11, 2011
Commissioner of Police Dwayne Gibbs has rejected the People's National Movement's application for a public meeting at Piggott Corner on Friday.
The PNM, since 1987, has held a public meeting at Piggott Corner, Belmont, on the Friday following the presentation of the national budget.
The Commissioner's letter said he was acting under Regulation 7, which states that he has exclusive authority to determine whether or not a public meeting can be held. And in the exercise of that authority, he had made the determination that the meeting should not be held.
Opposition leader Dr Keith Rowley said yesterday that while the State of Emergency regulations prevent the gathering of people in meetings, it does not say meetings cannot take place. "It makes provision for the Commissioner of Police to grant permission for such meetings. But he must do so on the basis of whether such a meeting is a threat to public order and safety," Rowley said.
He added that once the Commissioner of Police was satisfied that such a gathering does not threaten public safety and order, he can give permission.
"So today I want to ask the Commissioner of Police—is he saying that a PNM public meeting in Belmont threatens public safety and order? Or is he saying that his political masters are telling him it (the rejection) must be done?" Rowley asked. "Any denial of our application means that the Commissioner is saying that this event threatens public safety and order. And we of the PNM are saying this is absolute hogwash!" Rowley said.
"A PNM meeting in Belmont on a tradition of 20-odd years in no way threatens public safety and order in Trinidad and Tobago. And this (denial) is just the police obstructing legitimate political activity, by a premier political party whose 55 years in this country has been nothing but responsible in conducting public business," Rowley said.
Saying that the Commissioner's stance meant the party could not hold meetings until after December 7 (when the State of Emergency expires), Rowley said this was what the PNM meant when it said Government was maintaining the State of Emergency to suppress political activity.
"This is an unwarranted obstruction of legitimate political activity permissible under the State of Emergency and the CoP would not be able to convince anybody that a PNM meeting at Piggott Corner, something which people have looked forward to every year after every budget, that that threatens public safety and order. He must tell me how, in what form, way and manner," Rowley said.
He said the PNM would continue to apply, and would make another application today for a public meeting in Arima next Wednesday.
The Commissioner's letter, dated October 11, acknowledged the party's request to hold a "public meeting", but said, in accordance with Regulation 7 (1) he was unable to accede to "your request to hold a public march".
Stating that a march was different from a meeting and required a different kind of security, Rowley said the party also wanted to know whether the Commissioner's consideration was done in the context of a march, "which we never applied for".
Regulation 7 (1) of the Emergency Powers Regulations states: "Except with prior permission in writing of the Commissioner of Police, the grant of which shall be in his discretion, no person shall hold or take part in any public march or in any public meeting."

Looks like democracy in T&T is now dead and colonialism is alive & kicking!
We now have a foreign national telling one of our main political parties that they can't have a peaceful political meeting and using SOE as the excuse!
If it wasn't clear to all before it is now clear who Gibbs is working for and it is not on behalf of the normal citizen in T&T!
Maybe this is the real reason why the SOE has been unnecessarily extended hence no official reason has been given!
Talk about a creeping dictorship!!

Everybody has a right to an opinion but your supine acquiescence to this campaign of the government is intolerable. I know what the law says which is why I said they're abusing it. The TOP was allowed to hold a demonstration in Scarbrough. The PNM is not being unreasonable and they made the relevant requests to hold a meeting. Where is the state of emergency and how does this meeting endanger the public in any way ?

Warner offers Centre of Excellence to PNM for meeting
ctntworld.com
Mr Jack Warner has offered Opposition Leader Dr Keith Rowley the use of his building, the Centre of Excellence, to hold a public meeting.
In a statement, Mr Warner said he wanted to assure Dr Rowley and the PNM that there is no political interference in the denial of his application to hold a public meeting at Piggott Corner in Belmont on Friday 14th October 2011.
He stated,” The People's Partnership Government will never interfere with nor seek to influence the Office of the Commissioner of Police in any matter especially as in those related to the politics and politicians of Trinidad and Tobago. In an effort to assist, I want to offer the Honourable Dr Rowley the use of the Centre of Excellence for free, to conduct his public meeting. The proposed meeting will be indoor and in a fully air conditioned space that comfortably holds over 10,000 persons."
Minister Warner also offered to assist in transportation to thousands of PNM members who may wish to attend the event.
He added, "This I offer in good faith to show the extent to which I am prepared to go to allow Dr. Rowley to convince the national community of his irrelevance to local politics one more time."

intolerable for the partisan supporters of the PNM? Your woolgathering has reached the tipping point with a mere question that neither implicates or endorses the action of the PP.
Your apparent frustration is getting the better of you and your rational judgement of posters neutral stance. Please refrain from insults, it is not only juvenile but benighted.

The key phrase is "the grant of which shall be in his discretion". Gibbs could say that in his opinion, a family day in an area not deemed a crime hotspot is less likely to cause civil unrest than a full fledged political public meeting in a "hotspot" where many police raids and arrests have taken place.
I don't understand why an indoor meeting would be less volatile than an outdoor meeting, but I suppose the police could contain any trouble easier.
I sincerely hope this isn't a political decision by Gibbs because its too damn obvious if it is.

You take offense so easily and never actually address the comments made .The idea that someone could support the act of the state preventing or restricting political/civic activity is beyond my comprehension and is absolutely intolerable. My political affiliation is not a mystery I don't dodge the fact that I support the PNM . Surely you must consider that one thoughts and feelings have more depth than their political affiliation. Your presumptions weaken your argument invariably your credibility. My word, how do you reasonably justify this decision.
There has been no mutiny or insurrection, there has been no violent revolution or natural disaster why are our democratic rights being taken away from us ? And even if this SoE was legitimate which upon all evidence so far it isn't, how is the decision to prevent this meeting along with public meetings of the unions a threat to the public. It is passing strange that an SoE that by its latest reasoning was implemented to tackle gang activity also necessitates a banning of peaceful meetings .

once again my fellow citizen, did you not read my response, please read the part in bold. Your are completely missing my perspective on the issue. Sometimes when dealing with stubborn behavior you re-think your strategy and take the higher road with a new plan that is still effective and can be executed without interruption.
You have to understand that by you being politically aligned you are subject to criticism and can be labelled as being bias minded.
I am not a partisan supporter of the PP nor the PNM, so I am asking the questions many partisan supporters may not ask.
btw i see nothing wrong with the PNM public meeting and the party should be allowed to have it IMO, does that mean anything? Not really, the PP will still cite regulation 7

Jah Gol, slide into the role of Leader of the Opposition ... How would you respond to the CoP's decision?

Rowley should counter by agreeing to use the Center of Excellence IF .. only IF Jack can account for the approx $160 million missing for the 2006 WC campaign ...

Buh who or what give Jack the authority to offer the Center of Excellence anyhow? Is who own dat? FIFA? Jack? TTFF? CONCACAF?

You're logic is flawed and you have misunderstood me. In an attempt to alienate my comment you labelled me as a partisan PNM. Unlike you I openly support a particular party and never claimed otherwise. I positted however that my views are not limited to or circumscribed by my political affiliation. In this instance as in the case of the unions, the government through the state of emergency and the agency of the police have infringed upon the rights of citizens by a dubious claim of a national crisis and fight against crime. My affiliation is incedental and has no bearing on my opinion in this matter. I unreservedly opposed Patrick Manning's irresponsible visit to that radio station to express dissatisfaction with the comments being made. As a result of this the two presenters were suspended by the programme director. In this case it is not just an irresponsible act of intimidation but a systematic policy of suppression which is infinitely worse.
I'm not sure what occurred between your latest post and the original one when you suggested 'Rowley' should wait until after the SOE but unless this was an emoticonless sarcastic post in which you also cited the law then it appears you've made an about turn. Furthermore to assert that by not openly supporting any party you are somehow imbued with objectivity is absolutely fallacious as your many posts would reveal.

If I were Rowley I would be happy with the decision by the commissioner as I would have used it as fodder for the PNM base ,civic society, labour unions and all other right thinking citizens who either rejected the SoE or have become dissatisfied with its continuance.
I would use every medium available including youtube and social social media to alert citizens to dangerous policy of the government and thereby galvanize opposition for SoE , curfew , prohibition of demonstration and restriction of political activity.

The thing is, that too is illegal under this SOE and one could be subject to arrest. The slippery slope has started and this slope kinda steep. Trinis, including some on this forum, taking that and not even blinking for the sake of partisan politics. Madness

Buh who or what give Jack the authority to offer the Center of Excellence anyhow? Is who own dat? FIFA? Jack? TTFF? CONCACAF?
seems to be operating under an institutional guise. my guess its structured as a limited partnership and ownership is entangled between jack, shells, his concacaf/fifa pals, ttff and others.
It's registered as a business. Anyone can see who the directors/officers are

How can I perform searches?
In order to perform searches online, you need a subscription account which can be obtained at the Companies Registry. The Registrar General accepts a minimum subscription fee of $500.00 TTD. When you subscribe you will be given a receipt which has your user name and password. Your account operates as a debit account. Each time you use the service to access the electronic databases your account will be debited for the prescribed fees.
So if the COE is majority owned by Jack he was obviously getting exclusive pips on hosting FIFA anf CONCACAF events. And if he has allies in the new CFU regime he can still offer them some 'incentives' to keep sending business his way.
If wonder if Jack owns land close to the area he wants to build a tunnel in the North Coast?

T&T starts new era under PNM.
By Gail Alexander (Guardian).
The People’s National Movement’s fourth leader, Dr Keith Rowley, now Prime Minister-elect, will be T&T’s second Tobago-born Prime Minister following yesterday’s 2015 general election victory.
Rowley follows Tobago-born late Prime Minister Arthur NR Robinson into history in this regard.
Mammoth cheers from supporters went up at PNM’s Balisier House headquarters at 11.40 pm last night when PNM chairman Franklin Khan announced the party’s election result victory, adding: “I now invite to address you, the new Prime Minister of T&T.”
Speaking to the media just before the announcement, Rowley had said: “We have been tracking these results and the PNM would have won the elections and from tomorrow (today) T&T will have a new government...the PNM has come out with the majority of seats...tonight is the beginning of another era.”
Rowley said the PNM had won 22 or 23 of the 41 constituencies. Results for the Moruga Tableland constituency were still incoming when he spoke.
Later on it was unofficially announced that the PNM had taken the election 23-18, pending the official release of that information by the Elections and Boundaries Commission.
The PNM takes the helm from the People's Partnership, which now forms the Opposition, with 18 seats and which won the popular vote despite the PNM’s win in the majority of constituencies.
The PP crossed 300,000-plus votes while the PNM received 200,000-plus, it was estimated.
Outgoing prime minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar conceded at midnight at her Siparia office, speaking after Rowley made his victory speech. She said the people’s wishes must be respected as the people had chosen.
Sounding upbeat throughout her speech, she added: “I’m happy to be Citizen Kamla, MP for Siparia, all over again. I believe we fought a good fight.”
Persad-Bissessar noted the PP had obtained the popular vote. She said she would not stop serving the people, that the PP was still strong and that there would be healthy Opposition in the Parliament,
Congress of the People leader Prakash Ramadhar also said he hoped Rowley was sincere. He said what politicians did hereon would determine how successful T&T would be.
Jack Warner’s Independent Liberal Party (ILP) lost its bid in all the seats it contested, even though Warner at the close of polls had projected his party might have won “one to three seats.”
But the United National Congress’ Ganga Singh re-took the Chaguanas West seat which Warner held from 2010 to yesterday — in and out of government — and Warner also lost his bid for Chaguanas East, which was won by UNC’s Fazal Karim.
Warner told reporters that was his last hurrah in politics during his concession speech at the party’s Chaguanas headquarters last night.
The seats which gave the PNM its election victory were St Joseph, Toco-Manzanilla, Tunapuna, La Horquetta-Talparo and San Fernando West, apart from its traditional constituencies.
The PP maintained its traditional holdings, with the UNC taking 17 seats and COP leader Ramadhar winning the St Augustine seat, a total of 18.
Inclement weather throughout all of T&T marred yesterday’s exercise, though heavy voting patterns with a continuous flow of voters was seen all morning in polling stations.
Rains which began mid-morning and continued to late evening prompted the PNM to seek to have the EBC extend the close of poll time from 6 pm to 7 pm in Trinidad, though not Tobago.
This was the second time since 1961 that the close of poll deadline was extended from 6 pm to 7 pm. It was last done in December 1961 due to problems with voting machines.
Long campaign
After the long three-month campaign period of the 2015 general election ended yesterday, trends began emerging around 9 pm, with the PP leading in 19 seats and the PNM in 16. By 9.20 pm the PP was leading in 21 seats and the PNM in 18.
At that time it became clear that Toco-Manzanilla, Tunapuna and St Joseph were in the balance.
At 9.30 pm the first two seats to be declared went to the PNM: Tobago West (Shamfa Cudjoe) and Tobago East (Ayanna Webster-Roy).
By 10 pm, Siparia was declared for PP’s Persad-Bissessar, who received over 15,000 votes. She thanked supporters for her victory there.
However, by 10.30 pm, the numbers flipped and the PNM surged ahead in La Horquetta-Talparo, St Joseph and Tunapuna.
The final declarations came at just after 11 pm. By that time, PNM supporters at a crowded Balisier House, Port-of-Spain, had started celebrating while disappointed PP supporters at Rienzi Complex, Couva, had started to leave when Persad-Bissessar failed to show up.
Rowley, during his victory statement, again warned that difficult times were ahead. He said his first priorities were the swearing in of an attorney general, whom he declined to identify, and the delivery of the 2016 Budget.
EBC spokesman Dominic Hinds said last night they couldn’t give a voter turn-out until around noon today. He also said figures were preliminary.
The 2015 electorate was 1,099,279. In 2010 voter turnout was approximately 69 per cent of the 936,236 electorate.
Both the PNM and PP claimed irregularities occurred at various places in yesterday’s exercise.
-
A long road of rebuilding T&T lies ahead but we can now save T&T from ending up like Guyana with the right management who puts country and serving all of its people first in place.
I hope we can recover some of the stolen T&T taxpayers money too and give some of the worst offenders some well derserved jail time.

Tomorrow, Tuesday March 29th marks 35 years since this country's first Prime Minister the Honourable Dr. Eric Williams died.
Dr Williams, who founded the People National Movement, led the nation from 1956 to 1981.
The PNM is marking his passing with the following statement:
"On this day we mark the passing of a man who has truly achieved the dream of living a fulfilling life.
Dr. Eric Eustace Williams was born on 25 September 1911 and died on 29 March 1981 but his legacy will continue to live on as the Father of our Nation, Trinidad and Tobago.
In the memory of Dr. Eric Williams there is hope, pride, discipline, humility, strength, power and purpose. To know this man, is to know that nothing in life is impossible to achieve.
Dr. Eric Williams was leader of the Nation from 1956 - 1981 and this earned him the title "Father of the Nation."
He was our country's first Chief Minister, first Premier and first Prime Minister. Dr. Eric Williams was responsible for creating and leading a National Movement of People, credited with the development of Trinidad and Tobago. Dr. Williams presided over our country's movement from Colonialism to Independence and Republican status.
This Movement is the Peoples National Movement (PNM) which proudly stands today as the genesis, the current and the future of politics in Trinidad and Tobago. Dr. Eric Williams advocated and nurtured the PNM Constitution which continues to be copied by other political parties across the region.
The creation of a Women's League and the grooming of young politicians in the Youth League are some of the components which distinguished the PNM as a model institution. The PNM celebrates its 60th Anniversary this year and continues to grow stronger and more relevant even as so many other political parties have come and gone.
This National Scholar and Caribbean Historian used his intellect to fight against racism and to educate everyone who was willing to listen. Dr. Williams took the opportunity as Prime Minister to emphasize the importance of Education, making it free and available to all citizens and coined the timeless phrase "the future of the Nation is in the children's school bags."
His autobiography "Inward Hunger" describes his struggles through his academic pursuits, "I was severely handicapped in my research by my lack of money.... I was turned down everywhere I tried ... and could not ignore the racial factor involved."
Regardless of his struggles Dr. Eric Williams was able to return to Trinidad and Tobago and "put down his bucket" in the place of his birth. In his famous speech at Woodford Square, he renamed the park "The University of Woodford Square'."
He used this venue to give public lectures on world history, particularly in the context of Slavery and the Caribbean. His book Capitalism and Slavery is recorded as a globally recognized contribution to Caribbean history and the economics of slavery as a unique perspective.
The achievements and legacy of Dr. Williams are too far and wide to summarize in any one article.
At a time when our country is experiencing some challenging circumstances, we look towards the legacy of Dr. Eric Williams and his achievements as an inspiration to guide our journey.
The Peoples National Movement is not just a political party in the narrow sense of the word but it was created as a National Movement for all, cutting across race, ethnicity, colour, class and creed.
Dr. Eric Williams was succeeded by Mr. George Chambers, Mr. Patrick Manning and now Dr. Keith Rowley holds the reins of Leadership and is taking the Peoples National Movement forward. Let us honour the contribution of the Father of our great Nation and "Let's do this together" Trinidad and Tobago!
"Whatever the challenge that faces you, from whatever quarter, place always first that national interest and the national cause. The strength of the Nation depends on the strength of its citizens."
Dr. Eric Williams, Independence Day address on August 31st 1962.
“Rest In Peace Dr. Eric Eustace Williams, yours is a timeless memory which we will continue to honour!"

Nude images lead to blackmail
By Nalinee Seelal Tuesday, June 14 2016
A GOVERNMENT Senator has reported to Fraud Squad that he is being blackmailed by a woman from North American who has posted videos of him in the nude on You Tube. The senator says he has already vast sums of money via wire transfer to the woman in an effort to coerce her into removing the explicit videos from the website.
However, after the videos of the senator were removed the woman threatened to repost if he does not pay her more money. In frustration, the man who has several children, went to the Fraud Squad and told senior officers.
He expressed his deep shame at what he had done and is no longer willing to be subjected to blackmail, as it is taking a heavy toll on him financially.
Newsday understands an official report was made to the Fraud Squad last Friday and a team of officers led by Snr Supt Totaram Dookhie began an official investigation into the report. Other senior officers have been officially informed of the report. According to well placed sources, the Senator who contested and lost a general election, has become depressed over the incident.
He reportedly told police he met the woman through Facebook and she sent him photos of herself saying she found him very “interesting.” The two began video chatting and as the days progressed, the woman expressed an intimate interest in the senator. The two began exchanging erotic conversations, police sources said.
The woman asked the senator to send her video images of himself naked so she could get a “first hand look” of him. The senator complied.
In the video, police sources said, the senator began touching himself as he spoke in a suggestive and obscene manner to the woman.
The woman asked for further nude videos and the Senator complied.
Newsday understands that the woman contacted the Senator recently and threatened to place the videos on You Tube but the Senator thought she was joking. However when the videos were in fact posted, the Senator became traumatised and contacted the woman who began blackmailing him for money. The wire transfers of the cash were made and details of the transfers are in the hands of the Fraud Squad.
A friend of the Senator yesterday told Newsday he is not only traumatised but depressed since he has grown children and is remorseful of his decision to engage in the way he did. Newsday understands the Senator is supposed to meet with Prime Minister Dr Keith Rowley to explain his situation as he (the Senator) is contemplating resigning.
Checks by Newsday yesterday revealed that President’s House has not revoked the Senatorial appointment and attempts by Newsday to get a comment from Prime Minister Dr Keith Rowley, via text messages, proved to be futile. Head of Corporate Communications of the TT Police Service Ellen Lewis has confirmed that who confirmed that an investigation has been launched by the Fraud Squad in this matter.
“I can confirm that a report was made by a Government Senator in which he is alleging being blackmailed and this report is being investigated by the Fraud Squad,” Lewis said. Contacted for comment, the Senator confirmed making a report to police but said he does not wish to say anything further at this time as he is consultation with with several persons including lawyers. He promised a statement later this week.
“I do not know how I got caught up in this thing in the first place because I am a very careful person.
My family is in politics, please be careful what you write because I have children and I know that people would be able to identify who I am shortly. But this is one hurricane coming that I would have to face. I don’t want to prejudice the investigations and as such, I won’t comment any further,” the Senator said.
