It amazes me how some people or organisations are quick to throw a wet blanket over efforts to solve problems and not offer solutions as to how they can work. We hear comments as "military state," for example. I lived in Holland many years ago in the 70s and Holland has been using military personnel to assist the police by precepting them and giving them the legal authority and training them in police work. It has worked very well there and I see no reason why it cannot work here as well.
So I support the minister fully and say to him go full speed ahead with his plan. T&T stands only to benefit in his already apparent successful assault on crime.
