TRINIDAD-ENVIRONMENT-Environmentalist staging another protest outside Prime Minister office

PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad, CMC – Less than a year after he staged a 21-day hunger strike to force the Trinidad and Tobago government to halt the construction of a multi-billion dollar highway, south of here, environmentalist Dr. Wayne Kublalsingh is back staging another protest action outside the office of Prime Minister Kamla Persad Bissessar.
Kublalsingh said while he would not be engaging in another hunger strike, he would nonetheless be protesting peacefully the construction of the Debe to Mon Desir segment of the TT$$7.2 billion (One TT dollar = US$0.16 cents) San Fernando to Point Fortin highway project.
The 53-year-old environmentalist said that he and members of the Highway Re-Route Movement will be protesting outside the Prime Minister’s office until she meets with them and makes her position clear on whether she will abide by the James Armstrong report.
