I thoroughly enjoy watching these videos. It holds significant value to witness individuals expanding their knowledge about our nation. A proud Trinidadian here.
engaged to a trinidadian here in america. she'll be bringing me there for a visit someday soon. teaching me about the culture, and food. this has helped!!!
Thank you so much too. I will be coming there in Trinidad and Tobago on this coming December 2023. Because my Boyfriend is from Trinidad and Tobago. May God bless us all!!! 🙏🙏🙏
Like I previously mentioned to someone else on this chat that I really do appreciate your information on the culture and people of Trinidad and Tobago it was very informative, and each time I learn something new about This twin Islands where I was born. Also as it is well documented how mixed our people, culture and language are I am of a mixture of Indian, black and portuguese. I do have of knowledge about my Indian culture, black culture but I don't have much history about the Portuguese in Trinidad. Where they first settled and their contributions. I guess it was such a small Amount of people that settled in Trinidad much wasn't documented about their culture and language. Is it possible that you can Do a video at some point, to include the History of the Portuguese people. Thank you in advance and keep up the good work I thoroughly enjoyed your video.
Nice video, so much info packed in this short video. I always thought Trinidad & Tobago should be considered South American due to its geography. I hope I could visit the country, it looks beautiful & fun. Although I was hoping to see some mention of Sports like Football & especially Cricket along with some of the greats like Lara, Bravo, Ganga, Pollard, etc. Also in the beginning the world map showed all of Jammu, Kashmir, Ladakh & Aksai Chin regions as part of pakistan which is a mistake. Still loved the video, will take a look for other videos of countries that are part of the West Indies like Barbados, Jamaica, etc. Keep up 😊👍
Thank you so much. There are people believe Trinidad & Tobago is part of South America, for two reason, 1) location . 2) Trinidad is a broken off piece of land from South America. However most text book and experts agree in it part of the Caribbean.
@@GeographyNuts Yes I think there's no doubt Trinidad & Tobago is Caribbean, culturally I think even Guyana is considered Caribbean even though it is on continental South America. Although what continent is Trinidad & Tobago considered to be part of? I'm guessing North America. I feel some countries in the Caribbean should be considered as part of South America.
I am not from the islands, but I checked with the embassy for you, you don't need a tourist visa to visit the island as a Pakistani. Just book your flights and show up to the islands. It is am amazing island.
C'est parceque les Trinidadien ont tout fait pour détruire le créole français c'est du jamais vu et donc on n'en parle pas même si il y a un petit retour du créole français maintenant qui ressemble au Creole Martiniquais
I always laugh when someone says Pitch Lake and Trinidad exports asphalt to other countries but have the worst roads in south! Also where’s the love for Trinidad’s contribution to peppers? The Moruga scorpion is not for weak of heart. Nice call out for doubles! Not all doubles are the same. Most everyone gets their doubles up north by Piarco, but doubles in Princestown are my personal favorite. Living in Florida, I’ve had doubles in every place that says they’re Trini. Closest I’ve had to the real thing was in Miami.
I am sorry that you were disappointed by her dialect But as she made mentioned That Indians are the 2nd largest population in Trinidad and Tobago. The nation is widely supported culturally in Indian foods, clothing, religion and music and also its language. Currently there are many Indian businesses owners from India. However she seemed to be qualified in the history of the Caribbean and wished to share her knowledge. There are so many videos of its kind and I learn something more each time. I appreciate her research.
@@berniegueu8830 Not disappointed in the person .My point was a little trini slang would havebeen nice .Interview a few trinis in the video .I enjoyedit though .No disrespect .I send it to my friend in Hungary anyway .Thanks .
@@unclesam9909 😊😊 I appreciate that, and I totally agree with your point of view. For some odd reason being away from my place of birth. As I get older so many interests arise to learn about its history. There are no pictures and uncles and aunts do not have much information.😏 🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️
1 … We have about forty assemblies in Ivory Coast but I believe that none of them has gathered today because of the war… May the grace of God be with each of us. And also, it will soon be April 24th, that makes eighteen years since the Angel descended towards me for the very first time. It is a precious date for us. [Ed: The congregation says, "Amen!"]. 2 Well, I am going to read a verse by which I will close, God permitting. It’s Judges 3:1-2: … "And these are the nations that Jehovah left, to prove Israel by them, all that had not known all the wars of Canaan; only that the generations of the children of Israel might know war by learning it, at the least those who before had known nothing thereof". Amen! I’m going to talk about the subject: dispensation of a prophet. Whatever might happen, never forget that we are in a prophetic dispensation… [Ed: The congregation says, "Amen!"]. 3 Also, I ask you to content yourselves with the preachings that you already have. I think that there will be some more but I believe that it’s a long time since the Message of Matthew 25:6 has been already given. Like Esther, progress with what you have! Keep away from what didn’t please God to give you! [Ed: The congregation says, "Amen!"]. 4 Well, there are several brothers like brother Abba in Cameroun who hold some important posts; they are often confronted with some things and even with saying certain things to the populations on behalf of the government. Apart from hugs and similar things, they have to confess all the rest to the Church and I ask the brothers and sisters to be very merciful with them. [Ed: The congregation says, "Amen!"]. 5 Now during this crisis of Ivory Coast, we’ve been astonished to see that some so-called prophets and church leaders could say things and some came true and others did not. Yet, they are taken for true prophets. However, a prophet must not tell only one lie. Out of all the things he has announced, as soon as only one thing is false, he does not have to try to explain or justify that. A prophet has nothing to explain. Either it’s true or it’s false! [Ed: The congregation says, "Amen!"]. How can a prophet say, "I submit to all kinds of revelations on the market and all kinds of revelations in the churches" and a whole country admires him! That’s why, the judgment justly struck them! 6 Well, I am going to read out what a prophet said before the elections, concerning the Ivorian crisis … Well, I read that,"… Anyway, one of these days, that people that has besieged you and the son of your slave shall rule over you and what your heart refuses, you shall see it according to my Word!" And this Word was fulfilled exactly in this nation. Your heart refuses that a son of the Burkinabe who worked in your fields rules over you but you shall see it according to my Word. You see? And this Prophet has never failed in what he announces according to the way of his fathers, the prophets who preceded him since Moses. [Ed: The congregation says, "Amen!"]. It’s said in the Scriptures, "And Jehovah said unto me, Thou hast well seen; for I am watchful over My Word to perform It." Jeremiah 1:12. Even before the elections took place, while there were fourteen candidates in a country with a Christian majority, this prophet said that it was this foreigner and Muslim who would be president! Whereas all the Christians of all tendencies prophesied and fasted for the contrary. You see? And now, it is confusion and instead of searching for the truth, some will start saying that God does not exist whereasothers will speak of remaining home. But in all that, there is a people that has never known confusion and it is that of Matthew 25:6. [Ed: The congregation says, "Amen!"].
9 When punishments come upon a country, it’s especially against the churches that those punishments are exercised as before on the gods of Egypt. You see? I, Kacou Philippe, slave of Jesus Christ, I do not discourage you but it is in vain that you pray. God has raised up servants to exercise the judgments as He raised up his servant Nebuchadnezzar against Israel in the past. Is it not God who decrees everything that happens on earth? [Ed: The congregation says, “Amen!”]. [Kc.104v28]
Although the content of this video is good, it is a great pity that the narrator has such a strong accent and rushed through all that she said with so little expression, that I had a very hard time understanding her!! This was most disappointing, as I was born and raised in Trinidad, and would strongly suggest that a well educated Trinidadian be used in her place to provide viewers with a better idea of what the twin islands are really like!!
It is unfortunate corruption and greed get in the way of making good decision. Some Countries are geographically challenged, because they they don't have any natural resource or can't grow anything but T&T has wealth and it needs to be distributed well. Understand your frustration. Thank you for watching
None sense!! The people live quite comfortable on both islands, it’s just that due to the pandemic and the most recent recession of 2014 the economy was curtailed somewhat….just like every where else in the world who experienced the both occurrences. Of course there is poverty, but there’s also a robust social services arm of the government to help struggling families, where there’s also a strong trickle down policy in place that the citizens could share in the wealth of the nation which includes free education, free health care, free school feeding program, substantial school grants for text books and uniforms, there’s also subsidies on gas both cooking and gasoline, air and sea transport between the both islands as well as public transportation where senior citizens access for free. as for corruption, this new government has been able to scale back exponentially on corrupt practices with a few legislations implemented to curtail money laundering and other forms of corrupt practices that saw a great improvement on the international corruption index. so never mind the nay sayers, normally they are the ones who are pushing a strong political agenda to create an image of doom and gloom, and the kicker is that most of them don’t even live in the country, but are expats who are opposed to the present government, but has not a single clue as to what’s really taking place on the twin islands.

They have such beautiful accent yet this generation wants to adopt the Jamaican rough aggressive way of speaking.
Live in t and t
The narrator is just rushing down the information.
Most populated country in the lesser Antilles due to way out of control indian immigration. The accent says it all.
😂😂
My question is: who benefits from calling this country a “Caribbean island”?. It is not a Caribbean island.

as for corruption, this new government has been able to scale back exponentially on corrupt practices with a few legislations implemented to curtail money laundering and other forms of corrupt practices that saw a great improvement on the international corruption index.
