sam I get what you saying, but I don't think the solution as simple as you say. I was shocked to see that these covers in Trinidad...so big up for that...and I see the logic behind it...I mean...the population ent coming out to see no joe Public play defence force...but they go come out in they tens of thousands to see Beyonce or jay-Z so......cover the field well and let them pay to keep up the stadium. sound like good business sense to me.
Your forum name alone says it all......
So spen 7 million for a 2 day event is good business sense to you.... dam you shock me yes..... that money could utlise much better in a long term event and not short term.
Burn 7 million is 2 days is good business sense to you (lard !!!) and some man still eating dry bread.... No wonder no one go to see PFL games its beause everyone in T&T thinks the same, fete hard, support foreign artiste, try to be like others and forget yuh own and about tomorrow.
If Panday had done this, he would have been dead all now....
All that money Manning spending it strange how no body eh kidnapp he or he family yet, my bad, de kidnappers is de Police and them and who paying them, de Government.
Invest in the youths, you could never go wrong, build they future and build T&T, not build a blasted tent for fete that cost 7 million with nothing to account for.
And as I said, If Carnival so important to Patrick Manning why de hell he didn't take de 7 million and buy some cane land grade it down and build a permanent Savannah strictly for fetes, and have a long term venue instead of using our Stadiums our own athletics cant even use.
