Is the con­fig­u­ra­tion of the new Cab­i­net to the ben­e­fit of the peo­ple of T&T? Or is it, as said by Prakash Ra­mad­har, the COP leader, that the Peo­ple's Part­ner­ship will sure­ly be stronger and will ben­e­fit the re­la­tion­ship? Is it a case of kiss­ing and hug­ging up af­ter the rum­bling be­tween the two ma­jor par­ties in the coali­tion over the may­or­ship of San Fer­nan­do with the ad­di­tion of a few COP mem­bers to the Cab­i­net? Is it a case of play­ing pol­i­tics to the detri­ment of the coun­try? The coun­try waits.
