00:00What are we doing to ensure that the issue of race and class and religion does not permeate
00:10our society and in that way also destroy the relationship to the government?
00:18Mr. Jack, who also brought greetings on behalf of the Office of the Prime Minister's Tobago
00:23office, said sitting back and doing nothing was not the solution.
00:28He stressed the importance of taking action and making meaningful contributions to address
00:35the issues affecting the community.
00:38I'm saying to all of us, sometimes we're all into it.
00:43The only way to deal with that is speak out when these things are.
00:47And the one is an indication that if it's rights over darkness, if it is good over evil, then
00:55we're sure we understand the oneness of humanity.
01:00President of the Tobago Hindu Society, Pulwati Bipat, says the organization has enjoyed the
01:07respect and support of the people of Tobago over the years.
01:11She noted that the society continues to maintain its presence in the community, contributing
01:18to the island's cultural and religious landscape.
01:21We are not cultural as Indians driven on the island.
01:25We are very well respected.
01:27We are accommodated by the Tobago Indians and we live like family in Tobago.
01:34Meanwhile, the Tobago Hindu Society is awaiting connections from the Water and Seerage Authority,
01:40WASA, and the Trinidad and Tobago Electricity Commission, TNTech, to facilitate the completion
01:46of the historic Hindu temple.
