The Chaguanas Borough Corporation (CBC) will host a special plenary session to analyse the 2025–2026 national budget. Mayor Faaiq Mohammed announced the plan on Monday during the Divali Nagar celebrations at the NCIC Nagar, Chaguanas, saying the budget “looks good for the CBC.”
Mohammed said he could not yet comment on the proposed Landlord Tax, noting that the corporation would await feedback from stakeholders likely to be affected. However, he welcomed the reduction in the price of super gasoline, saying burgesses had already expressed appreciation for the expected savings.
Delivering the feature address at the Nagar, Mohammed said the world is filled with division, anger and pain, but individuals can choose a different path. “A kind word to a neighbour, a helping hand to someone in need, a smile to someone who has none — these are the seeds of a better world,” he said.
