Don't think so - dis was sabotage plain and simple. I would check bank accounts.

Everyone with a certain kinda look is chinese...suh we call dem in Guyana. Must be that :D :D :D So even the ones from Taiwan/.. :D

Regardless of the history of China and Taiwan in Grenada, this is a major embarrassment.
Nevertheless...you know what ? Shit happens, it was royal muck up but life must go on. Action must be taken to ensure something like that never happens again but nobody nah dead.
As much as I dislike the current administrations politics, I really feel fuh Keith Mitchell..and I feel for my country.

I won't speculate on the sabotage thing. I can think of a million scenarios under which the the two anthems could get mixed up.
Remember that Taiwan was here until recently...and the Republic of China on Taiwan could easily confuse some new clerk who went to the file to get the anthem etc etc. Not making excuses...just saying it could just be a lack of due diligence, ignorance, incompetence ...wuhever.

Since Worldcup reach Grenada ...everything is rush rush Chrissy....trust me, in my work .... everybody's running us ragged to get things done in time for the matches....its crazy...and we're a private company so I can imagine the state of things in the ministries. In the mad rush I can see how things get screwed up.
Nevertheless, I totally agree that a thorough investigation should be done..and if it does turn out to be sabotage..then decisive and appropriate action must be taken.

How can you make such a mistake. No double checks? No rehearsals? No management?
This is not a us dollar for a guyana dollar dude.
If there is some history between the 3 nations involved then surely someone has go to take time to make sure all the possibilities are ironed out.

In reply to Cheeks I agree. Cannot think of why there would be sabotage. The Taiwanese Govt does not want to create unnecessary tensions with teh Chinese and besides what would they or anyone else gain?
Put it down to a disgraceful mistake due to the vast language barrier. Someone should have gone directly to the abmassador
