I sincerely ask that our Prime Minister look with compassion and understanding on Dr Kublalsingh's request for an urgent meeting with her on the highway.I am a descendant of Elise Mondesir (my great-grandmother) and the Prime Minister may know my relatives the Saneys, Newallos and Leibas from Siparia.
This is the highest-costing highway in the history of Trinidad (over $7.5 billion). Dr Kublalsingh is on his second hunger strike, and awaits his promised meeting with the Prime Minister. This meeting mayavoid future dilemmas on the completion of the highway and the effect of climate change on its longevity.
Please, Hon Prime Minister, this will be a sad day for T&T and the People's Partnership if Dr Kublalsingh's death be on your watch. Don't let a case of highway robbery or any other reason be the cause. The nation is waiting and watching for your compassion.
