Raymond Timkee was the very worst possible choice. Clueless is not the word besides which something alot of people dont know and which he has been hiding for years. He is a muslim for over 30 odd years but hides it because of business. But this is T&T the land of mediocre and masons. He will make Jack look like a diamond.
With all due respect, this is not what i meant by being unfit for service, and BTW, what does him being a muslim have to do with getting the job done right??
i recall "noor Hassanali" being a muslim and holding one of the highest offices in T&T politics, so what's your point?
BTW, there re plenty of muslims on this site who hides their faith as well, and don't forget the man who made it possible for you to come on this site and express your views is a muslim, "inshan muhammad" AKA "FLEX".
I dont like to get into the religion thing because its a topic you really cannot win.... and I am not affraid to admit I am not a Muslim despite having a Muslim name and believe it or not, I am the only one between my siblings to have a Muslim name. My father named me after Inshan (Ali) and I dont even like cricket....
However, even though I admire the discipline, support and love they teach and show each other through good and bad, I am not a Muslim. I am a Christian (well, I believe in Christ and God - not religion), like a lot of Trinbagonians we inherit our names from our forefathers and while some choose to continue to follow their ancestries believes, some did not.
And its Mohammed, not Muhammad....
Guys, in my opinion (which I know is not worth much in this multi cultural melting pot we call Trinidad & Tobago) religeon should not even be mentioned. The first thing anybody says about an appointment is his colour, creed or religion.
Who cares? As long as the man can do the job, I don't care if he worships a puddle full of plankton.
Now I know we all can see that there is racism afoot in T&T and your colour can get you hired or fired. But here on this site, we should rise above this. Look how a misguided perception is wrong - Flex is a muslim because of his name? While I understand the point that JC made, when you assume you make an
ass out of
u and
me.
Just for the record, my religion is officially a Jedi Knight.
When the UK did a census in 2001, people discovered that if more than 10,000 people worship a religion, it becomes an official religion of the U.K. So tens of thousands of people put their religion as Jedi Knight. So, me and my son are Jedi Knights!
