Our Route is Excellence, Our Destination is Success

NGC and NAAATT Celebrate Our Dedicated Athletes

2018 was a fantastic year for this four-year partnership, with several successes as a result of the hard work, impassioned dedication, discipline and pursuit of excellence from our national athletes, who we are proud to support.

With an investment of almost $14 million to date, we continue to be deeply committed to driving these athletes from the moment their potential is spotted, right up to the Olympic podium. But this partnership transcends sports. In the words of NGC Chairman, Professor Gerry C. Brooks, “It defines our country, lifts our spirit and is a beacon of hope for people and communities.”

Professor Gerry C. Brooks

5th January, 2019
It’s not where you start; it’s where you are going! Good is the enemy of great! Some key words which resonated in your theme – our route is excellence; destination is success!

2018 is now behind us! It was a building block year with the Commonwealth Games, the Youth Olympic Games and the Central American Games. Michelle Lee Ahye distinguished herself and was our 2018 Sportswoman of the Year. Jereem Richards, with courage and flair, captured the Sportsman of the Year award. Other athletes distinguished themselves this evening. Let’s recognise their achievements in 2018.

But colleagues 2018 is over! This is 2019–the beginning of a new year. We are 360 days away from a new decade – the 2020s. This must be our decade!

Speech: NGC Group Long-Service Awards

Speech: NGC Group Long-Service Awards

Chairman, Gerry C. Brooks

Ladies and gentlemen of the National Gas Company and National Energy, it is my absolute pleasure to welcome you as we mark another milestone year. I first wish to congratulate all of you, and I want to personally acknowledge and honour your dedicated service and outstanding contributions.

Two and a half years ago, I urged you to reach beyond the merely good to achieve the great. Good is the enemy of great. And so you did! at a time when the economic environment is still challenging but with green shoots of growth emerging, the ngc group has produced an encouraging performance, the highlight of which is a 37.3% increase in after-tax profit.

This profit increase represents more than just growth and success. It is a vindication of the strategic recalibration of the entire ngc group over the past two years. It also stands as irrefutable evidence of your response to the call to commit yourself to the success of this pivotal state enterprise.

President, Mark Loquan

Good afternoon and a warm welcome to our awardees – our guests of honour at this celebratory event. As the speaker that stands between you and lunch, I know I need to be brief. However, please permit me a minute or two to reflect on why we are here this afternoon.

This is my first Awards Ceremony since assuming office, and I must admit, I am humbled by the experience gathered in this room. Seated among us are men and women who have spent decades serving The NGC Group and by extension, Trinidad and Tobago. Men and women who have helped forge the companies that are responsible for making this country a leading exporter of petrochemicals and LNG, attracting world class players to our shores. NGC and National Energy – these are brands. They were borne out of the imagination of people coming together and creating a new gas based industry. The people behind these organisations brought the idea of a gas based industry to life which has grown to become the engine for our economy.

Address By NGC Chairman, Gerry C. Brooks

July 08, 2017
It is a great honour to be invited to address you at the induction of Professor Brian Copeland as Principal of the St Augustine Campus of the University of the West Indies. The assumption of higher responsibility by one who has distinguished himself as a visionary thinker, an innovator and a team-builder is a source of special pride and cause for optimism in the future of the University. Given the development challenges facing Trinidad and Tobago and the wider Caribbean, his appointment to the helm of the St Augustine Campus, UWI could not be more opportune.
