Beckham arrives in Trinidad amid kidnap fears
From ANI
London, Sep 26: To help swing the 2018 World Cup bid in England's favour, midfielder David Beckham arrived in Trinidad and Tobago amid a huge security operation over fears that he could be a kidnap target.
The former England skipper, who arrived in the Caribbean on Sunday morning, was greeted with a huge police presence, with scores of plain-clothes bodyguards to protect him.
Trinidad is a world famous tourism hotspot as well as the world's kidnap and murder capital, The Daily Star reports.
A senior police officer said: "We will be taking no risks with our dignitaries. Security is at its highest."
This year alone there have been a staggering 354 murders, among a population of around 1.1million.
Beckham, 35, arrived in Trinidad by private jet. He then watched the women's U17 World Cup final alongside Fifa president Sepp Blatter and will today launch a football festival for youngsters on the islands.

Hear this,the PP base is right there in Trinidad and while you are on the point of "base" wher did you feel PNM base wudda be,I'll answer that for you...Laventille.I personally would rather have my base somewhere less daunting than Laventille.Listen carefully now,Beckham would not be kidnapped because he is white,if you have any sense you would know he is the wrong colour and race,yuh unnastan.You should try and avoid politics in your conversation,its bad for your health.

It would be interesting to know of the 354 murders in T&T, what percentage of that is gang/drug related.
I suspect they might be mixing up T&T with Jamaica (Jamaica is a world tourist hotspot, and Jamaica has one of the higgest murder rate in the world). I would say maybe 80% of all murders committed in Jamaica are as a result of reprisals or gang/drug related. In any case, T&Ts 345 murders from a 1.1 million population 2iould put it right behind Jamaica as the second highest murder rate in the English speaking Caribbean.

reggae fan T&T population is about 1.3 million...
yeh i cant help but make that correction ;D

This article was almost completely lifted from the Daily Star in the UK. The only less reputable source than the Daily Star is goal.com.
Nothing to see here. :beermug:

I think when these numbers are being quoted it is from a proportionate perspective and with our 1.1 / 1.3 mil we might just be the murder capital and kidnap capital of the world. again proportionately speaking.
-
Murder capital or not, we have far too many murders. If we have one kidnapping, it is one too many! So let's stop the arguing and do all we can to make sure our children get an education, play sports and be useful to society.
