TTMA backs BWIA

THE TRINIDAD and Tobago Manufacturers’ Association (TTMA) has added its support to BWIA.

In a release yesterday, the TTMA said the airline has made a contribution to business and tourism in the region. “The citizens of Trinidad and Tobago must recognise BWIA’s most vital contribution in passenger lift to the region,” the TTMA said. The TTMA also echoed the view of the Chamber of Commerce that the regional travel industry is too valuable to leave in the hands of foreign carriers. BWIA submitted a survival plan to Government earlier this week, seeking financial assistance.
