Money goes to pan - Friday 09, July-2004

We may never know for sure the extent to which the constant controversies surrounding the annual calypso competition influenced their decision, but this year Barbados Shipping & Trading Limited is putting its money in pan.
This is instead of the usual contribution of a car to the calypsonian who won the Pic-O-De-Crop competition.

Chief executive officer Senator Allan Fields, seen here, went to West Terrace, St James, yesterday to present the National Cultural Foundation with a cheque for $30 000 to support Pan Pun De Sand and Pan Yard Lime.

He also put his mouth where his money now is, taking the opportunity to “play pan”.
