Less than two weeks be­fore the April 28 Gen­er­al Elec­tion, the in­cum­bent Peo­ple’s Na­tion­al Move­ment (PNM) has un­veiled its man­i­festo, promis­ing “a bold, new chap­ter” of na­tion­al trans­for­ma­tion if the par­ty is re-elect­ed in­to gov­ern­ment.

In un­veil­ing the man­i­festo at the PNM’s Bal­isi­er House, Port-of-Spain head­quar­ters yes­ter­day, Prime Min­is­ter Stu­art Young said the par­ty would be op­er­at­ing with­in the coun­try’s means.

“What you will see is us gath­er­ing the ex­pe­ri­ence that we’ve had and to be re­mind­ed, through some dif­fi­cult times, hav­ing fi­nal­ly guid­ed our econ­o­my post COVID, where you had glob­al mar­kets that were hit from left field by this virus, desta­bil­is­ing many economies across the world. That ex­pe­ri­ence gave us the first- hand ex­per­tise on how we must bal­ance and ma­noeu­vre,” Young said.
