PORT OF SPAIN – Tobago entrepreneurs are calling on the Government to provide clarification on the operations of designated safe zones, particularly as it relates to restaurants and bars within hotels. Bars, restaurants, gyms, cinemas, casinos, private members clubs and water parks are expected to resume operations to fully vaccinated patrons from October 11. All employees at these businesses must be fully vaccinated. Attorney General Faris Al Rawi outlined the criteria to be classified as a safe zone during a news conference on October 2. He said employees working within safe zones must be fully vaccinated, except for those who have been granted a medical exemption or deferral certificate issued by a medical officer from the public health care system. Employees will also be required to present an approved rapid test or PCR test with the certificates every 14 days. Employers and patrons who breach the regulations for the management of safe zones will have to pay a hefty price. Al Rawi said employers will be fined $25,000 for flouting the guidelines while unvaccinated patrons found within safe zones will be fined $5,000. Anyone found guilty of producing false documents will be charged with fraud and dealt with accordingly. Children under 12 are not allowed in the safe zones as they are unvaccinated. Former Tobago Hotel and Tourism Association (THTA) president Rene Seepersadsingh said some hoteliers are in a quandary as to how they should operate. “In terms of the hotel, there is a major concern,” he told Newsday. “We still find that the policy of the safe zones for hotels that have restaurants, bars and gyms does have a certain level of impracticality for implementation because for particularly the medium to larger-type properties with licenses, they have to service their guests who patronise these facilities.” He added some hotel guests will also have children under age 12. “The age restrictions will limit the desire for people to travel and stay in hotels, particularly in Tobago. If people are coming for holiday they will not leave their young children behind.” Read the rest of the article in the comment section below 👇🏾 https://www.instagram.com/p/CU7e935ANXJL2sjumgcNrhbFmI7z_Y5zBxFJUI0/?utm_medium=tumblr

Galleryyuhself - Some responses to the Tassa Drum as national instrument.

Nixon Pierre

Listen...the agenda seekers are aware of the history of the instrument. There is no platform of discussion.

On the other hand, we could incorporate the Tassa as being an intricate part of the rhythms of TT...to the point where we believe it should be branded as one of our own.

Natalie Joseph Bishop

History. Tassa is a drum ensemble with ancient Persian origins, also known as Taash or Taasha drums. These drums disseminated to India with the Mughal migration, and from India spread worldwide with the Indian diaspora.

Sexypink - This was brought to my attention most recently.
