The Board of Di­rec­tors and Sec­re­tari­at of the Trinidad and To­ba­go Man­u­fac­tur­ers’ As­so­ci­a­tion (TTMA) is mourn­ing the death of for­mer Pres­i­dent Wayne Yip Choy.

Trinidad and To­ba­go NGL Ltd (TTNGL) has de­clared a spe­cial in­ter­im div­i­dend of $1.00 per share, end­ing a near four-year drought for more than 11,400 share­hold­ers and trig­ger­ing a $154.8 mil­lion cash in­jec­tion in­to the do­mes­tic econ­o­my.

For­mer T&T net­baller Kali­fa Mc Collin has signed with Malaysian Net­ball Su­per League club Kedah Sun­shine for the 2026 sea­son, the fifth edi­tion.

When Nathan Dur­gas­ingh re­ceived a pair of Guc­ci slides for his 15th birth­day, they were the on­ly gift he got that year. His friend Rhys Thomp­son sur­prised him with them dur­ing a vis­it to South East Port-of-Spain Sec­ondary, where his moth­er worked in the school cafe­te­ria. He was a fa­mil­iar face, of­ten stop­ping by on his free days to lend a hand. The two quick­ly bond­ed over mu­sic, es­pe­cial­ly drum­ming. Grow­ing up in Laven­tille, Nathan had lit­tle ac­cess to brand-name items, and that act of kind­ness changed his life.

Hu­mans like to be touched and hugged. When we are pleased and hap­py, we hug. When there is de­spair and sad­ness, we look for some­one to hug. If there is no one around, we hug our­selves. Is­land peo­ple, or small-town peo­ple, like to be touched more than city peo­ple. To some ex­tent, touch­ing/hug­ging is a cul­tur­al thing.
