00:00Now just days away from Carnival Monday and Tuesday, Prime Minister Kamala Pasa-Bissasa says
00:06all national security measures are being put in place to ensure a safe season.
00:12She says even though the state of emergency is no longer in effect,
00:16citizens can be assured that all resources are being deployed to maintain law and order.
00:23We are always concerned of a crime.
00:25Tomorrow I have a National Security Council meeting again.
00:30We will have further discussions about the way forward.
00:32The protective services are fully mobilized.
00:36And we will have public securities from the defense.
00:41We're all out. We've called out all the reserves.
00:44We're all out. We're all out.
00:47And we should have a security safe parliament.
00:50She says the office of the Prime Minister and five other ministries are having a joint event on Thursday
00:55following their weekly cabinet meeting to discuss the coming days further.
01:00The Prime Minister says despite what some had to say a few weeks ago,
01:05Carnival 2026 is shaping up to be a big success.
01:08I predicted at the start, there were a lot of naysayers for what would happen.
01:15From all the data that we have now, this panel is going to be a really bumper chronicle.
01:21From all the data that we have, the arrivals, the preps, all the events.
01:27So from starting with some evidence, I think it's just going and going each day.
01:32And I'm very convinced this is going to be a bumper chronicle.
01:37She urged those participating, spectating, those going to the beaches or just at home with family
01:44to be vigilant always and enjoy the season.
01:48A lot of people do go to the beach.
01:50A lot of people go to Spain or to San Fernando for the mask.
01:54All I can say, enjoy the season, whether on the beach, whether at home with your family.
02:00Enjoy, but be careful and be responsible in everything that you do.
02:05So I wish all, all, all safe, safe, safe season.
02:10On Wednesday, dozens of ECC-EIN primary schools from Separia, Pinal and Environs
02:17participated in the Kiddie's Carnival event hosted by the Prime Minister
02:21and the Separia Women's Association, where she also gave this update.
02:27All the kids are here.
02:29And the parents and teachers will be happy to know.
02:32Minister of Education just informed me that today is the day when every child
02:40will be promised a laptop.
02:42Every single one today has received their laptop.
02:46Every single one.
02:47Promise made.
02:48Promise kept.
02:50So guys, what you all have to say, ministers of peace, give them performance.
02:58Give them performance.
02:59Give them performance.
03:09The day began as a street parade through Pinal.
03:12Children of all ages portrayed costumes of every shape, color and size
03:17with pride and joy, making their way down the road and across the stage
03:21at the Petrotrin Recreation Ground.
03:24The Prime Minister says the event is in its 28th year
03:27and it was great to see the culture still very much alive with the nation's youth.
