Trinidad and Tobago's newly elected Prime Minister Kamla Persad Bissessar is launching a war on litterbugs in the oil-rich nation branded as one of the region's most unclean countries. As she addressed the official launch of a national clean up campaign late Friday, Persad Bissessar promised to introduce tougher legislation to penalize those who continue to “violate the environment with their dirty ways.” The Caribbean archipelago's first female premier set aside Sunday as a national clean up day. The massive Clean and Beautify Trinidad and Tobago (CNBTT) effort will involve the private sector, local and central government bodies, with locals pitching in to clear clogged drains, dispose of garbage and beautify the country.
