THE St Vincent Prime Minister is happy his "monopoly money" comment has drawn the attention of the Energy Minister as he hopes it will lead to trade issues being addressed between both islands.
On July 1, Minister of Energy and Energy Industries Dr Roodal Moonilal slammed comments by Dr Ralph Gonsalves which compared TT dollars to "monopoly money."
During an interview on an NBC Radio St Vincent programme on July 2, Gonsalves said he had no issue with TT or its people saying both his mother and wife are Trinbagonians. But with his country using Eastern Caribbean dollars (EC) or US dollars, he said there is no use for TT dollars.
