Nelson Island Renaming: PM Kamla Persad-Bissessar says Nelson Island will be renamed to honour the “jahaji legacy,” with a public website for name suggestions and a committee led by the Office of the Prime Minister and the National Trust—while historians warn the change must reflect the island’s full history, not only indentureship. Health Milestone: Port of Spain General Hospital discharged Trinidad and Tobago’s smallest triplets—Zayaan, Zain and Zaidal—after a long NICU battle, marking a major medical first. Women’s Football: AC Port of Spain stayed unbeaten in WoLF, beating Pt Fortin Pioneers 2–0 to move four points clear at the top. Crime & Policing: TTPS warned rural coastal communities like Matura and Toco are no longer “immune” as criminals adapt and target vulnerabilities. Environment Watch: EMA defended its approval for Tobago’s Rocky Point hotel, saying the CEC followed reviews, consultations and technical checks. Agro-Processing Push: TTMA backed the Brechin Castle Agro-Processing Facility in Couva as a boost for SMEs, food security and exports.
