representing lower Tumpuna and he is a mem-
ber of the party in Government.
I am educated, I am of African descent, and I
live in a non-gated normal community in Arima.
When I attended university, I did all my courses
for myself, and I never sought favour from my
lecturers. In other words, I legitimately earned
my degrees, a point which should not be glossed
over, and one that offers great insight into the
country’s dilemma.
One of my degrees is in Public Sector Man-
agement, as such, I know what is going on with
the budget process. And given that I have an
MBA from Lok Jack GSB, I was not bored by the
Budget presentation, because as I mentioned
before, I actually did my studies and work at
university, so what the Minister was presenting
was understood. From an academic perspective,
I understand why policymaking is done in the
way it is, ergo I understand the limitations of the
policy frame for the budget preparers, which is
something that I, unfortunately, can’t say about
all of the academics that have been publicly
commenting on the Budget.
I am actually ashamed of Mariano Brown
because of the academic position he holds! It
was shameful to listen to a programme where
the head of a great institution like ALJGSB, and
ex-finance minister, engages in a conversation
where a PhD is mouthing off on government cor-
porate policy for the execution of its secondary
roads rehabilitation programme, and this PhD
knows nothing about the tenets of New Public
Management (or else he would have known why
that corporate structure was used), and Brown
is there supporting the clueless deductions and
assertions of this obviously half-baked PhD boy.
Communication is a two-way action. The re-
cipient of a message must indicate that he prop-
erly received and understood the message for
there to be effective communication. I would
like to lend an honest voice here, and say to
this country that I know the difference between
hearing and listening, and declare that most
Trinis don’t listen to the Government commu-
nications, they hear them, but they don’t listen
to them.
I have listened to the Budget, and I have heard
no one in the public space advocate for what I
see that warrants concern with the capping of
the fuel subsidy. If transfers and subsidies must
reduce, then capping the fuel subsidy makes
sense. And by the way, that subsidy is derived
from a very very early public policy designed to
evenly spread the wealth of the country. Trini-
dad has a very wide middle-class belt, and a lot
of private car travel. We also have a retail market
where sellers deploy the rip-off pricing strategy
as a staple. So any increase in the cost of sales is
passed on with rip-off markup. For me, I want to
pay the same percentage of the full fuel price, as
maxi taxi drivers, government ministries, PTSC
and the distributors. Because the market sellers
are going to rip me off regardless, because they
don’t care. It’s amazing to me how Trinis attack
the Government minster because Xtra Foods,
Massy, and the doubles vendor decide to deploy
a rip-off pricing strategy.

Grenada prepared to
lease aircraft to ease
intra-regional travel woes
Grenada’s Prime Minister Dickon Mitchell says his
administration is prepared to lease an aircraft if
Caribbean governments are unable to sort out the
regional transportation sector by year-end.
Caribbean travel has been thrown into chaos fol-
lowing the collapse of the Antigua-based regional
airline, LIAT (1974) limited with the region travel-
ling population disgruntled at the inability to move
around as freely as they used to during LIAT’s op-
erations.
In an exclusive interview aired on WPG10 on
Friday night, Mitchell, who led his National Dem-
ocratic Congress (NDC) to power in June, said the
regional airline sector needs urgent fixing and that
there needs to be more decisive movement on the
issue before year-end.
“If by October, November, we don’t have an ar-
rangement…then it means if Grenada has to go and
lease the planes so that we can fly between Gre-
nada and Barbados and Trinidad and Tobago we
will have to do so.
“The truth is we can’t get to Trinidad,” Mitchell
said, noting however that with several new leaders
in the Caribbean he is optimistic that the situation
will be dealt with.
“Let’s put it this way, I am optimistic it will not
get to that,” he said, adding that regional govern-
ments must be prepared to spend more money
on regional transport. “I have made it quite clear

Inter Caribbean then some other vehicle that is pre-
pared to fly, it is as simple as that,” Mitchell added.
In August, regional leaders met to discuss the
situation regarding air transportation in the Carib-
bean amidst concerns that both regional and inter-
national travellers are finding it very expensive and
difficult to commute.
Mitchell said then it was agreed that a consultant
would be retained to provide advice to the heads
of the region as to how we can address the criti-
cal need to have, particularly air transportation
resumed at a level that existed prior to COVID-19.
