00:00But it's also a bill, this new one, that is, I think it's absolutely necessary given the times we are
00:07in and it is targeting specific areas, dealing with the specific situations in those specific communities and that is what
00:15I like about it.
00:16Mr. McFarlane said he agrees with Prime Minister Kamala Passat-Bissessa that those who abide by the law have nothing
00:23to fear.
00:24Especially law-abiding citizens, you don't have to fear, based on what I'm hearing, you know, law-abiding citizens don't
00:30have to fear anything about this situation at all.
00:33Senior Superintendent Cook is really doing a fantastic job in organizing different things on the island.
00:39You may not know of all of them, you can't talk about all of that, that's what I like about
00:43his style.
00:44You know, so I think people need to cooperate with Cook as much as possible, Senior Superintendent Cook, sorry, you
00:51know, and let us see how we can move this place forward.
00:54However, businessman Dexter Dean James of Plymouth told the TV6 News he cannot support the SOB.
01:02You know, domestic tourism is kind of like off and on, only on probably holiday weekends and so on, we
01:09have our influx of Chinese and so on.
01:11So to now incorporate this Zozo stuff where they're taking away some of your rights, some of your privileges, people,
01:22you know, how to stay off the road and that kind of thing, I think that would have a serious
01:26impact on business, just my opinion.
01:28In the village of Blackrock, most villagers were not in support of the SOB.
01:33Back in 2024, a quadruple murder occurred in Blackrock, Tobago, and that same year, 26 murders were recorded.
01:44Anglican priest Father Philip Isaac is also having his say on the SOB, but wished to make it clear his
01:52opinion was not that of the Anglican church of which he heads in Tobago.
01:57The government should give careful consideration to the rights and privileges of the citizen when they're going to implement things
02:10like that.
02:11I am not sure if this has been done, and until I'm sure this has been done, I cannot give
02:21my support to it.
