Description
Franky Greedman and Jonas Sukapillz are visiting the small island,to spend the money the made with laundring their drugtrade money through the Shytla channels.
They are corrupting now the brides (and everyone else) on the island.
In the back we see already the big towers bought by the yankeedolla-lol.
Rum and Coca-Cola" is the title of a popular calypso. Originally composed by Lord Invader and Lionel Belasco, it was copyrighted in the United States by entertainer Morey Amsterdam and became a huge hit in 1945 for the Andrews Sisters, spending ten weeks at the top of Billboard's U.S. Pop Singles chart
I heard this song the other day and placed a scene into 2012 at another location.
Drinkin' rum and Coca-Cola
Go down Point Koomahnah
Both mother and daughter
Workin' for the Yankee dollar

Since the Yankee come to Trinidad
They got the young girls all goin' mad
Young girls say they treat 'em nice
Make Trinidad like paradise
Out on Manzanella Beach
G.I. romance with native peach
All night long, make tropic love
Next day, sit in hot sun and cool off

Oh yeah .. they come to these wonderful unspoiled places and leave behind diseases and unwanted babies and misery and all their evil ways .. Oh, yeah, that's a rant. Okay I'll cut it short and instead admire your most cool presentation. Love all the details, that sign with all the forbidden things is great. So much fun for the new crop of kids to break all the rules. very cool work on this one!
