"No Infringement," says Tantie

With the help of Paul Keens-Douglas, the ICC will be kicking off it’s anti-infringement campaign. Paul Keens Douglas will record a variety of radio ads that will aid organizers in helping the ICC “protect its interests” of the tournament’s global partners. Hence no free advertising, no competitive advertising (ambush marketing as it’s called), no stealing officially-registered logos and slogans.
The ads won’t only be aired in Trinidad & Tobago but throughout the Caribbean where his voice is equally recognizable. Who is better suited to do this anyway?
In related news, you know that they’ve just about run out of accommodation for the participants of Carifesta IX? So tell me what will happen when we host the Cricket World Cup next year and iz thousands more people go be here? Now I understand why there are all these radio ads and newspaper inserts calling for ordinary citizens to provide accommodation to visitors. Accommodation is going to be a big concern come next year.

well, at least it not like in Guyana where they say they going to put up tents since they have many open fields…these fields may have cows and dangerous reptiles, but hey, no worries right?
I was finally able to understand this year, the reasons T&T may not have wanted more than the “brown” package…the money we’d have to spend on constructing hotel rooms, we don’t have road infrastructure to accommodate regular life into POS, doh talk about for cricket spectators!!

I swear manicou, I wouldna put this in writing if it wasn’t a real proposal being considered right now in Guyana - ah mean, people might be glad to save a little money after spending so much to travel from so far to come to the West Indies…

LOL, we’ll call that the glass-half-full view. I don’t know how Englishmen and women are going to feel about sleeping in open fields, lol.
