According to Ramotar, the game has now fostered self-interest and even greed.“Some administrators of the sport seem not to care about the importance of this institution but more about perpetuating themselves at any cost.  Governments have invested millions of dollars in building facilities to enhance the game and to promote the growth of the sport.  However, today we face the abomination – key matches are now being taken out of the Region while some of our territories are deliberately deprived.”
