Mr . Terrolong is low and disrespectful even if you didn't like the previous leaders you are on international stage so why blocked out there faces then said it is someone else.You are at the top and that is the way you think like a primary school kid who vex with their friends.Same way The prime minister behave and the other members that followed him because only them do good and the past one do pure bad .Therefore everything they do is going to crash right before their eyes and left them in shame.Paula you get extension already go now gracefully like other government workers and stop bringing shame on yourself now.The people ofJamaica tired of seeing you and the corruptions you handed out to the poor.Do not fight to stay there because it didn't will to you by your parents.

Ms. Paula Lleweylin, being a trained lawyer, knows that she was unconstituionally given extension of her tunure, as Director of Public Prosecutions, by this unscrupulous JLP led Governnmet of Jamaica. Now that the Judical arm of Government - the Supreme Court - has ruled that her extended tenure is iunconstitutional, and therefore illegal, she should humbly relinquish her office, if she has any respect for the nation's Constitution; otherwise she will be nationally, and interrnationally regarded as a ruthless renegade, and a JLP Govrrnment mercinary.

The opposition Party should call for the resignation of The minister, Terrelonge,or whatever his name is. We cannot have minister that should be representing the country internationally, yet choose to engage in partisan political warfare on that level! The Prime minister should also be paying close attention to what his minister are doing. He does not want such behavior to be pinned to the culture of the party....of which he is responsible for. Remember that statement about money made by Mr Warmington?

That incident should have been deemed treasonous. To be representing the country in an international political situation and at the same time denigrating its former leaders in the process of such representation should be an act of treason.

[@michaelpowell6183]

There was a comment that it was $560,000 for the ten tanks. Which means $56,000 per tank. At the hardware store the sale price for Roto tanks (shown in the picture) would be around $70,000 per tank. The equivalent one thousand gallon "Tough Tank" was selling for $60, 000 at the hardware store.
