In applaudig the move the need to enfacise more creative and aadvanced measures must be taken into concideration. the effort is not to compete with economies that can produce the same resources, but build those international links to create an import export venue.

i am very proud of Mr. Bruce Golding's efforts to provide food for his country. His vision for Jamaica is in good hands, , whereby the so-called vision 2020 the Patrick Manning administration is always touting and always promising and never seems to deliver because in general they lack foresight and vision, they are still, at this point of their vision, doing agricultural research, when the ground work was laid already by farmers donkey years ago. The agricultural minister never looked so awed as when he saw what a melongene looks like and he appeared quite fascinated for the first time in his earthly life. It goes to show that common sense is what is needed and is lacking by this bunch of idiots running the Trinidad and Tobago country.
