	Caribbean Islands Trinidad and Tobago - Political Dynamics
		Between independence in 1962 and 1986, politics in Trinidad and Tobago was inseparable from the story of Williams and the party he founded, the PNM.
		At the time of independence, politics in Trinidad and Tobago was conducted by the middle class; both the PNM and the DLP were nationalistic, largely pro-capitalist parties that were controlled by the middle class and supported by the working class.
		Some of the officers and men in the Trinidad and Tobago Defence Force seized control of the barracks at Teteron, however, thus depriving the government of arms; Williams was then forced to make hasty purchases of arms from the United States and Venezuela.

		THE END of an exciting era in party politics in Trinidad and Tobago is rapidly drawing to a climax with last week's dramatic decision by one of its best known charismatic, crafty and enduring political figures to bow out of electoral politics – Basdeo Panday.
		The post-independence political history of Trinidad and Tobago will show that, whether or not you like him, Panday more than any other politician has been responsible for breaking the syndrome of perpetual governance by the People's National Movement (PNM) and has significantly changed the politics and culture of that twin-island state of the Caribbean Community.
		Though no longer interested in electoral politics and consequently no need to hold any official post in the UNC, the old veteran with his reputation as the 'silver fox', said he was giving up electoral politics for a new kind of politics – politics at a higher level; that is politics that will determine politics.

		UNC POLITICAL leader Winston Dookeran and former PNM finance minister Wendell Mottley have warned that the current state of politics in Trinidad and Tobago could conspire to undermine the long-term health of the national economy.
		Mottley said it was politically challenging for a government in any democracy “to do the right thing” during periods of economic prosperity and TT was no exception.
		He said floating the exchange rate was one of the best decisions the PNM ever made in government but said that measure worked because the other fiscal policies at the time were “in lock step” with each other.

	Is Panday trying to outfox his opponents? - JAMAICAOBSERVER.COM
		THE end of an exciting era in party politics in Trinidad and Tobago is rapidly drawing to a climax with last week's dramatic decision by Basdeo Panday - one of that country's best known, charismatic, crafty and enduring political figures - to bow out of electoral politics.
		The UNC, with its "rising sun" symbol, is the creation of Panday, whose vision, energy and abounding capacity for unpredictable political decisions formed the vehicle that took him to power in 1995 as multi-ethnic Trinidad and Tobago's first prime minister of East Indian descent.
		But others within the party, as well as independent political observers think that under the influence of Panday - even before his conviction a fortnight ago - the sword had been drawn against the emergence of Dookeran as party leader and, by extension, opposition leader.
