TAIWANESE BANK DEMANDS REPAYMENT OF US$25 MILLION LOAN

In a letter sent to Grenada’s Finance Minister, Hon. Nazim Burk, the Export-Import Bank of the Republic of China on Taiwan has demanded immediate repayment of approximately US$25 Million loan given to the Grenada Government under previous administrations. The loans contracted by the Grenada Government were spread out over an 11 year period: US$10 M in 1990, US$8 M in 1997 and US$10 M in 2001. Two separate loans were secured in 1997 (US$2 M and US$6 M). The Export-Import Bank signaled its strong intentions to move ahead very aggressively towards enforcing the judgment against Grenada (obtained in March 2007) within the United States and throughout the world following the failure of the Grenada Government to service the loans. Grenada at one time had cordial diplomatic relations with Taiwan but the relationship was seriously strained in later years and was finally severed in 2005 after which Grenada re-established diplomatic relations with the Peoples’ Republic of China (PRC). The Grenada Government is believed to be presently seeking the expert services of a legal consul in New York to assist the country in dealing with this current legal and financial quagmire. The current national debt is believed to be somewhere in the region of 2 billion dollars and with the Grenadian economy reeling from the effects of a global economic recession, the obvious demands on the present administration to meet the country’s financial commitments and obligations to all parties concerned will no doubt continue to pose serious challenges for the Tillman Thomas led National Democratic Congress.

Mr. Hangman, you said black people have never oppressed others. Now tell me how did black people get to the West Indies and America in the first place. Was it not by black people. Was it not the black people who sold their own people into slavery. I'm glad they did. In a way some of us were lucky to be sold out and to end up in the West Indies away from that garbage over there. You say Mugabe is fighting for his own land. The white people-some of them bought their own land and started to cultivate- which is something we do not like to do in this here Grenada. When the land was producing fruit, the blacks wanted to take it back. Your boy Mugabe let them take it back and burned out most of the white folks. Now look at that same land today. Where it it? Is it being worked? Mr. Hangman, you see why we have different views. I too am a black man, but I see what has happened in the past and what is taking place now. Do you want this to contine in the future. Man Grenada could be a rich beautiful country if we got rid of some of our questionable leaders. We need fresh young different mixed blood.

Hello Gabe, I understand your frustration but I think when we constructively critize and show the past mistakes, we can bring about a brighter future and hopefully a better Grenada. Tell me one thing that I have said that is incorrect. Look at our past history and what's taken place. Gabe you know I have always said we need fresh young leaders. In the past most of our so called leaders have taken us to a path of destruction and now is the time to change them all. If we have one Chinaman, one Blackman, one Indian, one Whiteman, one Canadian, One Englishman, One German, I most certainly believe we would have a better Grenada, and that's what I am all about, A BETTER GRENADA. Gabe lets talk. You have always had some good ideas.

Hangman I thought you had better sense than that. I cant seem to understand what you mean when you say black people must stick together. As a people we need to stick by ourselves, our morals, values, and do for ourselves and our family. Never depend on the other. What black holocast are you talking about. In Africa, the hootus and the tootoos in Rowanda where all the ignorant blacks were killing one another because of a different race or tribe. Hey Hangman, boy you have to learn to do for yourself first. Yeah the Chinese, Japanese, Indian and the Whiteman do for themselves, and the blacks have to also do for themselves instead of whinning and crying and waiting for someone to do for them. Its Grenada. We used to have coffee, sugarcane, cocoa, nutmegs, indigo??? Do you think we would be in that state we are in if the whiteman, chinese or canadian was ruling Grenada? be honest and give me a good answer. We need people who possess the true ability to govern and these jokers aint got that and I dont see any of these Grenadian clowns able to do that now in the next 100 years. Look at that stadium the Gorilla Mitchel built. What a waste? and it was the Chinese who worked day and night while the devils home sulked and limed as usual. Look at the Airport, it was mostly raw Cuban energy. Hey look at the tunnel in Gda. It was badly in nned of repair for years now. Are GRENADIANS DOING ANYTHING? nah they probably want a grant or help from another country. Look at the mountain roads. We are an agricultural country where we need to get goods to market. The road from the mountains in the country are the worst> Do u think it will get repaired. Maybe if Tilman make the prisoners work hard and do it. But look whats happening. Kill a few Grenadians and go to prison and get a college with the help of Bernard Coard. Coard should also be repairing the mountain roads in my book with chains around his feet. Talk to me. Hey lets get on the big notice board.

Hangman, I understand George Bush was a total idiot. We all know that. Now Clinton was a good president but Obama's hands are tied too. Do you realize what he is doing. I remember some 20 years ago when GM was still begging for help. Reagan told them, they have the technology. They can make a better automobile if they want to. They refused to size down and kept making the gas guzzlers. They pay full medical for their retires. Hey some of us are retired too and we have to make co-payments. Do you think GM workers make co-payments. Why do you think tax-payers have to pay for it and bail them out, and they still want more and will get it too from the Bama man. I understand the white man was hell, but things are changing now. Changes could come faster, however it takes time. Look even the Bama man is President now. See what happens. See if your pay check will be bigger or smaller. See if times will be better or worse. Its too early to tell now, however in Gda's situation, its later than ever and those idiots have to go. Ever though of some of these politicians in Grenada making eighty thousnad and owning a 4 million dollar house and driving a new car every year plus owing real estate in Barbados, Brooklyn and Florida. You my brother had better do some serious research as its the pocket books of your and my folks in Gda who will be drained dry. Do you know how much Gda owes? Do you realize Taiwan could own the largest chunk of real estate in Grenada because of this past goverments activities?

Hangman, tell me one black group who ever stuck together. We begged for independence when we did not handle it. We are the only independent country who is dependent on every one else. We can't ever produce cocoa, nutmeg, bannas, sugarcane. Our leaders have destroyed it all.I love my people too, but it seems the more we get educated, the more jackass we have become. Look at Coard, Bishop, Mitchel, Burke and the others. Look at Guyana with Forbes.When Jagan was ruling earlier, I remember Grenadians used to go there and work for good pay. Check out Guyana now. Look at Zimbabwe, Jamaica, Haiti. How great are they. I think anyone except these thieves and educated fools we have here in this Caribbean island of Grenada would do better. Now you have them as leaders and see whats happening. Hangman you can keep them, but I don't wish for them. I think if we had different races with people who are not so damed worthless and people who wants to work could bring change. But if you want them, fine with me. keep them and stay in the cesspool with them too.
