Pour la deuxi?me ann?e, les ?l?ves de l’?cole presbyt?rale St Joseph de l’Asile, comme c’est le cas dans d’autres ?tablissements scolaires de la commune, vont retourner dans les salles de classe dans les m?mes conditions qu’apr?s le tremblement de terre qui a s?v?rement frapp? le grand Sud le 14 ao?t 2021. Le p?re Lukson Sim?on, cur? de la paroisse St Joseph, a confi? sur Magik9 ce mercredi, que malgr? les efforts des membres de la communaut?, les m?mes hangars de l’ann?e derni?re seront utilis?s cette ann?e pour accueillir pr?s de 1000 ?l?ves de l’?cole presbyt?rale. <>, a fait savoir le p?re Sim?on.

Selon le pr?lat, d’autres ?coles de l’Asile, comme l’EFACAP, sont dans une situation beaucoup plus compliqu?e que l’?cole presbyt?rale. Ce qui laisse, s’est-il inqui?t?, planer de s?rieux doutes sur la r?ouverture de ces ?coles cette ann?e. <>, s’est plaint le P?re Sim?on, ajoutant que dans les sections communales, la situation est encore plus critique. Avec l’augmentation du co?t de la vie, la situation ? l’Asile empire au jour le jour >>, s’est alarm? le religieux, qui croit que la commune risque d’?tre la premi?re victime de la chert? de la vie.

Morino Guersony, directeur de l’EFACAP de l’Asile, a fait savoir ce mercredi, que l’?cole est dans une situation compliqu?e. Cinq salles sont divis?es en deux pour permettre le fonctionnement de l’?cole, a-t-il confi? sur Magik9. <>, s’est indign? le directeur, soulignant que le Fonds national de l’Education avait fait construire la fondation pour des hangars sans aucun suivi jusqu’? aujourd’hui.

En plus des ?coles, les infrastructures sanitaires sont alarmantes dans l’h?pital communautaire de r?f?rence de l’Asile. <>, a indiqu? le p?re, qui se dit fatigu? d’utiliser sa voiture pour transporter des malades vers Fond-des-Blancs ou Bonne fin.

Le p?re Jean Fran?ois Printemps, responsable du coll?ge St Jean des Cayes, appelle ? la poursuite de la manifestation de solidarit? pour reconstruire les ?coles de la p?ninsule du Sud. Il conseille ? la communaut? de prendre les choses en main, de ne pas attendre les organismes ?tatiques encore moins les organisations non gouvernementales. <>, a d?plor? le p?re Printemps, qui se dit conscient des faibles moyens de l’?tat.

Privy Council rules in landlord’s favour

The Privy Council ruled in favour of a landlord who appealed a decision over his deceased tenant’s daughter’s rights to renew a lease for a parcel of land.

The Privy Council handed down the judgment on Monday, giving Mohan Jogie the green light to sell his land at 100 per cent of its market value.

In 2012, Angela Sealey, the daughter of his deceased land tenant Cynthia Abbott, took him to court.

Abbott had leased the parcel of land at Bhagoutie Trace in San Juan from Jogie’s family.

Court documents said the lease was to last for 30 years and, at any time during the first 30 years, Abbott or her successors could renew once for a further 30 years.

The first period of 30 years of the lease expired on May 31, 2011.

Abbot died on December 21, 2006, without a will and had given no notice to renew the lease before her death.

On January 11, 2011, a few months before the expiry date of the first 30 years, Sealy gave Jogie a renewal notice.

She alleged that before and after May 31, 2011, the landlord attempted to prevent her from entering the land.

On February 1, 2012, she began legal action as the “representative” of her mother’s estate.

At that stage, Sealey had not obtained the grant of administration.

She submitted to the court that she was entitled to buy Jogie’s land at 50 per cent of the market value or not at all if she chose to remain a tenant paying a nominal rent.

She won three times —at the High Court and the Appeal Court on her substantive claim. In addition, she successfully resisted Jogie’s application for permission to appeal to the Privy Council.

A reserved judgment containing three separate decisions from Lord Burrows, Lady Arden, and Lord Leggatt, the Privy Council comprehensively reviewed the law from 1603 to date.

They unanimously upheld the landlord’s appeal reversing the decisions of the High Court and Appeal Court in their entirety.

Court documents said their decision was based on the relation back doctrine that could not validate the daughter’s lease renewal. That would undermine the landlord’s vested proprietary rights, causing unacceptable uncertainty for the landlord.

It was also because the relation could not validate an invalid claim when it commenced.

Attorneys Anand Beharrylal QC, Sian McGibbon and Melissa Ramdial, instructed by Ronald Dowlath, represented Jogie.

Attorneys Keston McQuilkin and Andre Rudder, instructed by Charles Russell Speechlys, represented Sealey.

Dr Shelly-Ann Gadjadhar

The American Chamber of Commerce of Trinidad and Tobago (Amcham) and the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) are hosting a workshop to offer solutions to the barriers women face in society.

The workshop,Women in the Lead: Mindful Leadership in a Transformative World, will be led by Dr Shelly-Ann Gadjadhar on Thursday.

The programme has been around for five years now and this year, 40 mentees in different fields across the private sector will be paired with mentors aligned to their career goals.

President of Amcham Toni Sirju-Ramnarine said the mentorship programme will remove the barriers that stop women from progressing in the workforce. – Juma Bannister

President of Amcham Toni-Sirju-Ramnarine said, “The goal should always be to remove these existing barriers with more opportunities so that we are empowering both women and men.

“At Amcham, we believe a diverse workplace and society brings about better outcomes for everyone. Ultimately, this is what we are hoping to both inspire and achieve with this mentorship programme.”

The programme is meant to provide a platform for women to develop their leadership skills, increase self-confidence, build social capital, and take ownership of their own personal and professional development.

Carina Cockburn, country manager of IDB, said women will be able to find common ground with their male counterparts as they learn and grow in organisations with the mentorship programme.

“The workplace in which we engage every day has added value because of our presence. By helping each other, we can share the responsibility we have to fulfil our own potential and to act as torchbearers for the women who will follow.”

Carina Cockburn country manager of IDB said the mentorship journey will help women findcommon ground with their male counterparts as they learn and grow in organisational spaces. – Navindra Harbukhan

Gadjadhar, leader of the sessions, educator, attorney and the CEO and founder of Alphastute Ltd, said teaching women about leadership is a great pathway to helping them see themselves as impactful. She said these teachings will also provide women with the knowledge and sovereignty to choose the type of leader they want to be.

“Many women persistently feel like they need to adhere to the ‘follow the leader’ blueprint, and in a transformative world with more agile ways of working, women are having a more powerful say about what it means to lead both professionally and personally. It is this sovereignty of embarking on a personal leadership journey that is disrupting boardrooms and creating waves of change across industries and sectors,” she said.

On the benefits of the sessions, Gadjadhar said they will challenge women to identify ways to create a strong leadership legacy, provide a clearer understanding of their leadership blueprint and how they can mindfully include others on the journey.

The programme has been running since June and will continue through November. It covers women in sectors and industries such as science and maths, technology, engineering and economics, and occupational health and safety.

Raheem Sterling Unveils New Jamaica Heritage Inspired Clarks Collection

Chelsea footballer Raheem Sterling has released his heritage-inspired footwear Clarks shoe collection that pays homage to Jamaica.

The collection dropped on Wednesday as the recently appointed global ambassador for Clarks brings his signature love for the Clarks brand to his fans. The new shoes, which come in several hues, bring together the signature Wallabee Boot and Desert Trek into one new and innovative design and is the first collection by Sterling with the beloved shoe brand.

Sterling is known for his love for the iconic brand, which has a huge presence in Jamaican culture as music fans especially love the iconic Clarks shoes. Sterling as well has shared his love for the shoes, which have been featured in reggae and dancehall music lyrics over the last 40 years.

This is not the first collaboration between Clarks and Sterling they have collaborated before. The famous footballer is Jamaican and moved to Wembley, England as a child.

He previously shared his love for the Wallabees, which increased his athletic abilities as a child on the playground.

According to Clarks, the new collaboration pays homage to Sterling’s birthplace, Jamaica.

Photos of the Clarks were shared on Wednesday, with Top Boy’s Kadeem Ramsay posing as the male model and DJ Becca Dudley as the female model. The photos also feature Sterling and the shoes with an embossed motif ‘1692’ that references the famous 1692 Port Royal earthquake event that sunk the city, which served as Jamaica’s capital. The event is nowadays associated with what remains of Port Royal, the home of Sterling.

Jamaica’s national motto, ‘Out of Many – One People,’ is also inscribed inside the shoe.

The colors of the shoe range from neutral tones of navy blues, clean whites and ecru. There are also darker shades of grey, black, and khaki, all paying homage to the natural beauty of Jamaica.

Sterling spoke about his love for Clarks shoes since he was a boy at the launch of the collection recently.

“In school, I wanted to keep up with the kids wearing fresh kicks so I was selling frozen slush after class to make money to buy my first pair of Wallabees,” he said.

“Fast forward and now to be the first Jamaican with my own Clarks collection is an honour. When I heard I could build this line I was buzzing, it’s a brand I’ve loved from a young age so to have this opportunity is really special,” he added.

“As a nod to the special connection between Clarks and Jamaica I wanted to do something that was for the island, for Jamaica itself. On the heel you see my brand 1692 which is the year Kingston was founded and hidden inside the shoe is the motto of Jamaica, out of many one people,” he added.

The collection is only available online in the UK and EU and exclusively through Clarks UK website.

La montée des prix de notre quotidien n’a échappé à personne, ne serait-ce qu’en lisant la presse nationale pour laquelle l’inflation est un des sujets phares de cette année 2022.
