It was the PNM Government in 2007 that formed the band Divine Echoes and provided annual subventions to it from the Office of the Prime Minister. According to the 2010 Draft Estimates of Recurrent Expenditure, Divine Echoes received a total funding of $4 million in fiscal 2009 and this was increased to $5 million in 2010. It was Manning and Williams' PNM who undermined Cudjoe's cultural preference, not the PP Government. The professor believes that the cultural policy adopted by Ghana explains its recent prosperity and stability and that this policy was similar to Williams' cultural transcendent policy. He therefore believes that for T&T to enjoy similar prosperity and stability it must reject a policy of multiculturalism and adopt Williams' skewed vision. Above is a summary of economic statistics of both Ghana and Canada who pioneered multiculturalism from the CIA World Fact Handbook. The statistics reveal that Canada, by far, is in a stronger economic position than Ghana and that the citizens of Canada earn more (per capita income), than the citizens of Ghana.
