I looking for the latest information about the newest information concerning Triniadad and Tobago immigration. One point in particular is the new rule of France "you don't have to produce a visa to enter."

A mediocre society trying to reach developed status and the evil that go with it!!! Instead T&T is digressing to 4th world status if you get the point. Awful when you imagine that the people say that God is a Trinidadian.

What is really going on in our Little Country, it is deaths upon deaths upon deaths with no hope of resolution to these crimes. What is the Minister waiting on, is he waiting until the Country is declared a state of emergency, i am scared to walk the streets in the daytime, to leave my doors or my windows open, it is like a game of hide and seek when you hear gun shots ringing off, Lord help us, because our law enforcers are useless, they too are corrupted criminals.
