Sea bridge ball in your court, PM

Once there is a constant flow of people to and from both islands, there will be an immediate improvement in human relations — love, peace and togetherness would evolve.

For too long there has been talk about a sea bridge but that has always collapsed. We are a country of talkers and not doers. We are just babbling our mouths that we are the best in this and that, with no concrete evidence to show.

Tobago is anti-Trinidad and vice versa ever since Dr Eric Williams (deceased) made statements that I will not repeat.

Tobago is closer to Grenada than Trinidad.

It is practically in Grenada’s territorial waters, and was once a ward of that country.

Likewise, Trinidad is much closer to Venezuela than Tobago. Just visit Cedros (Icacos) and observe.

If something is not implemented sooner than later, Tobago is going to secede from Trinidad as soon as it receives all that it needs, which is not far away. But Tobago will run into a roadblock — there is no oil. Tourism will always be the economic factor of Tobago.

Prime Minister Dr Keith Rowley, the ball is in your court. Start the ball rolling.

EARL MARTIN Trincity
