Neo-colonialism in the Caribbean

Well, today is Indian Arrival Day in Trinidad and Tobago.
So, big up to all d Trinbago Indians and to people like me,
who have a trace of Indian in dem.

The whole idea of Indian Arrival Day got me thinking. In
colonial times Indians came here as indentured labour.
Now, in T&T, multinationals such as Alcoa (the so-not-liked
aluminium company) are bringing in Chinese to work. And it's happening
in other countries too. Planes now replace the ships that brought our ancestors here.

Sounds like indentured labour to me.

Colonialism, back in d day and still much alive today, is evident in
multinationals, evident in some politicians (ah doh wanna say all
ah dem chupid bad) and even some of our own people who in true
capitalist form or chupidity or narrow-mindedness, couldn't care
about true development of the Caribbean and our people, as long as their own pockets are full.

Sounds like neo-colonialism to me.
