Our right to march supports our freedom not to march
Alred C. Frett
Let your Voice be heard and stand for something or fall for anything:
We have passed the day of decision whether or not to march against the UK’s ‘Sanctions and Anti-Money Laundering Bill Amendment’ as it affects the VI… As a supporter of freedom of expression including peaceful protest, I have no problem marching anywhere and anytime provided it is done in the greater interest of the People and not for promoting special interest and personal agendas.
We know who defends the rich but who will defend the poor?

Lasting bad effects of Hurricane Irma:
Hurricane Irma is almost a year old and those lucky enough to survive still complain of things getting worse as landlords used the crisis to have tenants repair and rebuild their properties only to evict or overcharge them, especially when these victims have no means of defense – During the formation of the New Constitution, I argued for the inclusion of Public Defenders but that was omitted.
They who do no evil should fear no evil – If only this was true

The Wicked flee when no one pursues:
My last Article was a teachable moment for Ms Jane and Mr What – This Article returns to our Bi-monthly Schedule at a time when the prospect of natural and man-made disasters rest heavy on our minds… The Hurricane Season is barely a month away, Government has not started their own recovery and the state of our Economy appears to be under direct threat from inside and outside.
UPDATE: ‘We paid our rent up to May’- Alred C. Frett
ROAD TOWN, Tortola, VI - Co-Founder of B & F Medical Centre, businessman and talk show commentator, Alred C. Frett speaking exclusively to our newsroom on May 7, 2018 made it clear that payment of rent is not an issue why the landlord placed locks on portions of the Mill Mall [area by Kenny Tees] occupied by his business.

This is no Secret so you are allowed to spread it:
Sincere thanks to VINO, BVI News and CBN Radio for carrying my ‘Truth for the Youth’ Messages and extra special thanks for those choosing to listen, read, learn and respond to the Information… Typical Blog Responders are invisible Persons with fake identities, loud opinions and a deep fear of being recognised so I avoid responding to them unless it can be used as a ‘teachable moment’.

Government to enforce Insurance Obligations but what about the others?
For more than half a year we have argued that Government should ensure Insurance Companies meet their obligations to Clients and we are finally hearing of steps being taken in that direction… That would be good but it still leaves the Price Gouging and Unfair Practices that have been perpetrated by Landlords and Suppliers on Hurricane Victims or just about every VI Resident.
Marching for the Commonwealth or just following the blind?

Only the Lazy & Misinformed celebrate before the Mission is accomplished:
Time is running out, we are still in the midst of Recovery Efforts and this is hardly the time to indulge in National Holidays we cannot afford and that only serve to push us backward rather than forward… Just a week ago we did HLS Holiday and we are now called on to celebrate Commonwealth Day and, while Persons appear quick to welcome these non-productive events, few know their basic origin or meaning.
A Black History Month message against using hurricanes to rob us
Alred C. Frett
It’s over 6-months since Hurricane Irma destroyed Satellite Dishes, toppled Radio Towers and severed our On-Air connections but thanks to VINO my views were kept alive via ‘Truth for the Youth’ Articles. These Hurricanes dropped us in a time zone of Natural and man-made disasters and along with the forces of evil and Impediments we encountered, I applaud your ability to survive in what is ‘our worst of times’.
Six months of crying out for help just to suffer in silence

Life is a journey and we are travelers for better or worse:
It is almost 6 months post hurricane and a journey from East to West and North to South still shows the devastating effects of Hurricanes Irma and Maria… Vivid details are still fresh in everyone’s mind and each have stories to tell but their stories are the same as yours and mine because we were all in this together and while no one expected miracles most believe
there should be far more progress.

Crawling or Stepping into the New Year:
A brand-new year but the old wounds linger - With no New Year Fireworks in the Road Harbour, our National Hero, Noel Lloyd, lying broken and prostrate in a desolate and powerless Park and so many signs that our People still need all the help they can get, it is a glimmer of positivity to be told that some of the Easements we said would aid in the recovery of our Territory have finally been granted.
