To the Minister of Public Utilities: In light of the nationwide disruption of Internet services on December 07, 2020, what measures does Government intend to take to prevent a recurrence, given the increased need for said services during the COVID- 19 pandemic? Madam President: Minister of Public Administration and Digital Transformation, you have two minutes. The Minister of Public Administration and Digital Transformation (Sen. The Hon. Allyson West): Thank you, Madam President. Madam President, what occurred yesterday was a bit of Murphy’s Law. We have the subsea cable coming in through the Antigua channel to Trinidad and Tobago which is the main source of connectivity. We have redundancy through a cable coming in from Curaçao. The one from Antigua experienced a difficulty on Tuesday 01 December, and while they were in the process of repairing that, which took longer because of COVID restrictions and difficulty with travelling, the cable coming out of Curaçao experienced a power outage and that is what caused the problem that we experienced yesterday. So the citizens would acknowledge that when the initial break occurred in UNREVISED 6 Urgent Questions (cont’d) 2020.12.08 the Antigua cable there was no obvious interruption of power because the redundancy system worked well. But Madam President, it is difficult to build out a system, especially an expensive system, for a Murphy’s Law occurrence. So we had a combination of the two entry points into Trinidad and Tobago being affected at the same time, and the repair of the initial one which was subsea being significantly delayed because of COVID. As I understand it, two of the three cable providers were more directly affected because these service providers have proprietary interest in those cables, and therefore have a greater concentration of their connectivity coming from those cables. The third major service provider has more evenly spread its risk and therefore was not as significantly impacted. So while TATT does not regulate the access to connectivity, we can and intend to have a discussion with the service providers regarding the sources from which they receive their connectivity— Madam President: Minister— Sen. The Hon. A. West:—to reduce the problem. Thank you, Madam President. Madam President:—your time is up. Sen. Richards. Sen. Richards: Thank you, Madam President. Can the Minister identify for the population, given her response and the redundancies identified, that there are systems in place to protect and maintain critical infrastructure to connectivity, including medical, security and energy, which depend on this connectivity and which were interrupted yesterday significantly? Sen. The Hon. A. West: Madam President, I trust I got the Senator’s question. It is about systems to protect the medical—So, we do have endpoint protection in respect of our ICT systems, including protection in the health sector. So the information was not as risk.

  • Religion and the Alter-Nationalist Politics of Diaspora in an Era of Postcolonial Multiculturalism
    RELIGION AND THE ALTER-NATIONALIST POLITICS OF DIASPORA IN AN ERA OF POSTCOLONIAL MULTICULTURALISM (chapter six) “There can be no Mother India … no Mother Africa … no Mother England … no Mother China … and no Mother Syria or Mother Lebanon. A nation, like an individual, can have only one Mother. The only Mother we recognize is Mother Trinidad and Tobago, and Mother cannot discriminate between her children. All must be equal in her eyes. And no possible interference can be tolerated by any country outside in our family relations and domestic quarrels, no matter what it has contributed and when to the population that is today the people of Trinidad and Tobago.” - Dr. Eric Williams (1962), in his Conclusion to The History of the People of Trinidad and Tobago, published in conjunction with National Independence in 1962 “Many in the society, fearful of taking the logical step of seeking to create a culture out of the best of our ancestral cultures, have advocated rather that we forget that ancestral root and create something entirely new. But that is impossible since we all came here firmly rooted in the cultures from which we derive. And to simply say that there must be no Mother India or no Mother Africa is to show a sad lack of understanding of what cultural evolution is all about.” - Dr. Brinsley Samaroo (Express Newspaper, 18 October 1987), in the wake of victory of the National Alliance for Reconstruction in December 1986, after thirty years of governance by the People’s National Movement of Eric Williams Having documented and analyzed the maritime colonial transfer and “glocal” transculturation of subaltern African and Hindu spiritisms in the southern Caribbean (see Robertson 1995 on “glocalization”), this chapter now turns to the question of why each tradition has undergone an inverse political trajectory in the postcolonial era.
