Despite the government’s tireless efforts to manage the country and increase revenue, poverty in Trinidad and Tobago is intensifying. The most vulnerable people, those at the bottom of the financial ladder, are bearing the brunt of this economic hardship. Thousands of workers lost their jobs in 2025 and remain unemployed, struggling to survive. The country’s economy continues to falter with little sign of immediate recovery, and jobs are scarce. The government’s recent push to curb lawlessness as a way of raising revenue is disproportionately affecting the poor who are already struggling. The article calls for empathy, honest leadership, and cooperative effort to face the reality and support those in need, to build a country where no one is left behind.
