- Cumaca People have been looking forward to better roads and electricity for many many years, it cost about 300 a day to get to and from Cumaca because of the roads.
Here is an old article from 2011

Be careful what you wish for yes.. one thing I notice is that all these elderly people look really really good.. skin glowing..🤔Enjoy your paradise yes
lets hope for the best. i appreciate your comment thanks.
@@Husiff for real
A simpler life..
Dont let da colonizer aka di white man in da country
They will fuck it up and destroy it
As much as I want them to fix the roads, I really hope outsiders don't make mischief there when or if they do get new roads. Please respect the tranquility and gem they have there.
I was thinking the very samething
Yup people who visit to cook by the river tend to leave their garbage behind. If we fix the roads it will loose its tranquility
Sad to say opening up this place will cost it its beauty
Just listen to that natural soundtrack
Sarah Wilson they won't. When they start fixing things, watch out, it ain't for the people who live there.
I would re open that school. Forget the government! I would re open it every time they close it.
Nobody is going to talk about how amazing this brother's editing skills are lawwwd great content and editing 150/100
lol, I'm just smiling at your remarks, thanks bro, blessings.
I see people saying why they leave Trinidad, Trinidad truly is a great place, we live in paradice. But we so accustomed looking at other beautiful countries that we forget our self.then again, I don't see we pushing that tourism drive. I find every home should work toward being and icon of attraction for outsiders to come and enjoy.
Thats the first thing I noticed, good job brother, this channel is a gem.
I agree 100%
Wow!!!!!! Excellent videography, inspiring and appropriate audio and world class arial shots......hats off to you brother
@@ronaldraj4952 thanks man blessings to you.
My country is so beautiful. Its so sad we don't know that
Yes sad
Indeed. I never heard of this village before. It's a beautiful village.
Sad we don't appreciate it
@@stephaniecrosby5294 it truly is
Our country is beautiful but the majority of people have changed. Never did I ever thought we would of become such a violent people. Over the years Trillions of dollars flowed through our country and people cant get basic nessessities. Absolutely disgusting, murder and mayhem now rules once a beautiful country.
Hearing how the first man talk about how he meet his wife make me feel good to know it still have good woman and men out in this world, living a happy life and all we need is to be happy and comfortable.
I personally know Mr keith AKA TORO! He is a very very good person to be around ,always making you laugh🤣
Good for now
Thanks alot love this comment
Don't matter what look at the good
I personally would like some enlightenment done to this beautiful place its a virgin part of our country,the catholic board should use the s c hool for lovely getaways church conferences etc monies could assist the community.
Those ppl has clean oxygen and are closer to nature tho..... They're blessed and highly favored by GOD when u look from the spiritual eye.. They may not be favoured by the Government and ppl in society but GOD puts them first..... THE FIRST SHALL BE LAST AND THE LAST SHALL BE THE FIRST!!!!❤
I agree
I also agree. Blessings to one and all.
So true. When I go home I feel close to God there. It’s a special kind of peace and joy I experience
🌸 Amen, the broken bricks become the crown of the wall 💕✨
@@sunitafisher4758hey, goodnight, what does it mean?
Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹
My beautiful country
One thing about Trini's.. we’re happy. It dont matter what the circumstances is we make the best of it 💕
Blah Blah. Don't run out of natural gas....you'll be f'd
Is a Caribbean thing,same with we Jamaicans,back in the days,I remember going to some friends home in the ghettos and couldn't believe how he live',no electricity or running water ,yet he always looked clean and swagged very impressionable guy...Just show me that it's personality that maketh the man and not worldly possessions
That's true about most of us Trinis. This applies now more than ever.
I went up in their for gravel 7 miles never known it had a village
I could with piece ah land up there. No lights, have to fetch water, community of no more than 60 ppl...... PERFECT 👌
Me too lol
Amen. I'm in Seattle, Washington. Home to Amazon, Microsoft, Boeing, Expedia, and so much more. Enjoy that peace... once it's gone, you can't easily get it back
Let's go
Hmmm, me too 😅
Me too I would love it.
If natural resources where found such as gold, you'll be surprised how fast government would pay attention. Nonetheless, the place is very beautiful.
Beautiful living with nature . I would love to experience this. They should get assistance to provide essential services.
You have done well. You are your own government. Stay away from the so called government. Thank goodness you look after the roads yourself. You are living aren't you? 😂
The government doesn't realize the real diamonds and gold are these people and their lifestyles
Nothing beats the harmony of living together with other creations in a natural environment. I looked after cattle in the bushes and grasslands. With time I begun to notice things like the intelligence of these creatures. The birds, snakes and many other creatures. You man was given dominion over the creation on this earth but then came along the deceiver who convinced man to accept things like government and monetary systems of all sorts. These things are just ideas. Man is a word controlled creature. Before you control the man you need to trick him into believing the viability and conviction of your ideas. Once that foundation laid then it becomes easier to impose more and more ideas then the rest becomes history. Slowly but gradually introduce fear and the controlling becomes easier. Impose taxes and other undesirables on man and trick him into believing that the taxes, police and the military are good for his safety and protection against non-threats whatever they may be. Ultimately build up enormous weatlth and power for yourself
and at the same time control the narrative and public opinion through the media which you control. Eventually your man becomes dependent upon you entirely. Remove the knowledge which was tried and tested from him and teach him whatever you want which will make man much easier to control with each passing generation. These are some of the techniques that have been employed against mankind since the begining of man's existence on earth. Teach man to cast spell against himself without him knowing what he is doing. Teach him especially through the english language that the formation of words is spelling and teach him to say those words correctly. Don't teach him that what he is doing is actually casting spells whenever he uses those words. A simple example is time. Time comes from two syllables: ti and me. Phonetically ti comes from t and i combining the two sounds it sounds as tie the meaning of which is a bond. When you combine the ti and me it sounds tie and me which is tie; me, tie me! This time is a very good spell which at a sub-conscious level or spirit level is self bondage. Teach man to learn spelling and keeping time at an early age to make controlling the entirety of his life a much easier venture. Man becomes a selfbonding and spell casting creature without knowing it. Do not teach the man that he is one w with the all and that the path to the all is within himself and through contemplation and meditation man connects with the source of it all. Make man ignorant of such truths by teaching him false beliefs, encourage the use fornication to dissipate his creative energy and abilities, give him entertainment through sport, music and film, encourage man to use chemicals which are poisons but don't tell their true effects on his body and spirit. Call them medicine and it is the doctor who will give him the correct ones. Do not tell man that whatever man needs to stay healthy, strong and live long is readily available in nature's bounty! Destroy such knowledge generation after generation and eventually man becomes a slave imprisoned by an illusion created by the controlling entities. Meanwhile the designers of this prison system quietely take control of the resources that belong to mankind without him seeing what is happening. This my friend is where we are standing. Those who see this illusion are villified as mad!
@@benwebale1658 you spoke a truth here that only those with "true" eyes can see and understand. Ahmein and Tudi (thank you).
Wow, I am 57 years old and it's the first time I am hearing about Cumaca. The first time I heard about Platanal was from Sprangalang in one of his Christmas parang, and I thought it was a make up word until I google it.
Country living is the best. No social media allows for the appreciation of community and family values. It is very possible that in the near future, people from the cities will flee to villages like Cumaca to re-learn how to 'live' again. Decent roads and a lil electricity wouldn't hurt though. Thank you Husiff.
Sounds nice however Wishful thinking🤔
The hermit will love that...
Electricity will spoil the area. Those fools with their loud music will drown out the natural sounds of the place
Husiff needs an Award. His skill is amazing! Capturing the beauty and the history of our beautiful people in these twin islands of ours❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Damini, really appreciate you sharing your thoughts, 😁 have a wonderful day. Looks like a rainy day be safe.
As a Trini who lives abroad, I love seeing how beautiful Trinidad is. My heart felt for these people. Let us not be people who only comment but remember them. They are fortunate in a way to be away from the crime and corruption. If and when I make money in my business I will remember them. Only thing is by then, it may be too late. Thank you for this video. The quality was really something.
thanks a lot, very genuin comment. thanks
Why all these thumbs down on this video, it shows people don't have a heart, but god don't sleep and what goes around comes around.
The man in blue is so humble. Good people in Cumaca
He is my Tamil(ancestry) brother
Bless his beautiful soul.
This documentary broke my heart. While I enjoyed the scenery and pure beauty of the village and surroundings it's a gross indictment of the Government of Trinidad and Tobago. SHAME ON THEM !!! Thank you Husiff, I appreciate your wonderful work!
my brother lets hope something works out, thanks a lot for the feedback, really appreciated
I'm not advocating for governmental involvement to the point of commercialism. The people who live there need to have access to basic amenities that they cannot afford to provide themselves.
Good access roads, proper water pipelines, electricity and a school. These are the things they are asking for. These are the things that will make life easier for them.
Really! Time to protest about bad roads!
Same here jed
I loved listening to the 77 year old lady and the story she shared about the dirt school. It is unfortunate the government don’t value these Trinidad treasures. We are fortunate that you do.
Think I may do a revisit to get a better feel of the area and the people.
She looks so young,nature has a lot to do with our body.
Facts 💢
@@pearlgarcia4450 absolutely
I am from a town called Paramin in the mountains of Trinidad 🇹🇹 ..known for the village closest to God!! I was born in Maraval..I understand both sides!! I loved the peace and tranquility of my village in the 70s..but now Paramin is in soca songs and known for its Blue Devils..yes it has become modern but the toll it has taken on the roads and resources is sad. I wish I could go back those days. As the saying goes.."time waits for no man"!! You are forced to give in at som point. Solice is not forever. I will forever love my village!!
What a good man, he remembers the date he got married
Imagine my boyfriend does even remember when we began our relationship
He remembered when he got engaged to her too! He loves his wife!
Remember Caribbean people these beautiful islands ARE OUR NATIVE land , we are the Arawak we are the carib we are the Indian they say died from virus , we never died just on paper reclassified ✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿🇩🇲🇩🇲🇩🇲🇩🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Caribs, Arawaks, Waraos,(spelling), African, then the Indians came.
This land belong to the Caribs and Arawaks.. where the Indians come in. Please be fair.. everything belong to Indians so.. please.
Virgin land so all you want to get you all hands on it.
Preach! if ppl only knew. People get so mad at the truth.But its hard to let go of what you have been taught from day 1 in school. It's the same in North America but the older generation can't let go of the out of Africa theory. How does dark chocolate ppl become Pale Caucasian Asian ppl in modern day less than 100 years? If we are from Africa, how did our population get so large? But no one ask questions they except it since they refuse to research or listen to their spirit. Dark ppl occupied every inch of this planet and it time to reclaim your inheritance.
WE were HERE BEFORE Columbus, "slave trade", etc Whomever mentions "Africa"...we were here in the America's long before. I have Native American" friends who look just like me -- who can tell you their long lineage, traditions, etc; they don't know about Africa. Be careful!! Thats right...you speak the truth my friend!
I am proud to be a Trini and so proud of these wonderful Trins too. So resilient. They have every right to be angry, but they are not. The government should be ashamed. I truly hope this video get the attention of the right people who can reach out and help them all in the country side especially. At minimum, they deserve to have their basic needs met. My goodness. Thank you sir for making and posting this timely video. God bless you.
You are welcome sir. Blessing to you.
Pretty place looks peaceful true nature
I wonder what the down thumbs were for. This is one of the top professional videos that I have seen on T&T on CZcams. Unless the down thumbs are for the village and the lack of interest by the government. T&T government can do much better than this. What a shame that these people have to live under these conditions in this day and age .
Remind's me of the famous Paramin in Maraval. At one time not so long ago, Paramin also was like no-man's land. Now it has become so bright and busy that it has lost it's true feeling. Cumac seem's to me based on the footage in this video like an untouched heaven. It should now be declared a national park and preserved as is included the people who live there. It certainly seem to be a beautiful place. To be honest, l would'nt mind living there.
I my self wouldn't mind living there.
@@Husiff great history. Lovely place , so untouched. As much as the people are crying out for better conditions I understand their plight. Yet I'm afraid like many other places modernising the infrastructure after a while will bring much human contaminants like criminal activities , destruction to nature, and definitely disrupt the innocence and serenity of this place. It's atmosphere is so soothing and clean. A breath of clean fresh innocence in all its natural aura..it's like a dream. Wish it can be maintained with little changes as a natural historic site . Thanks for posting this and letting us know that places of such beauty still exists in our island of Trinidad. These people are Blessed to be there. God is with them.
@@carolramirez2198 the people live for many years, no one took care of the roads, I didn't show much of it in the video, but I would do a follow-up, it's really bad. But I know how things go, that slow diving could be on safe for them. They depend on the outside world as well, so they come out to get stuff in valencia. It is a challenge for some.
@@carolramirez2198 love your comment and you are right, help them out but maintain the beauty of the forest.
@PERVERTED PUPPY WHO EATS POOP it's true sad how everything have a different side to something good lol. If we fix the roads they could have problems with people, not a ghost or animal but people. Different walks of life thinking they want the same thing but they don't, so they go and make things bad for other. But how do you get around it.
I am a Trinitarian living in Trinidad and never heard about this place. Wow
Trinidadian*
I grow up in Trinidad 🇹🇹 from age 3 years old to 15 year and never heard of this place. Yes I know about Toco, wow
Really wow!
Ann Marie r u serious 😳 u never knew about the place?
Oh wow
Thank for putting the spotlight on the Village of Cumaca, I used to visit that place back in the seventies and early eighties and I must say its still beautiful. I think that the villagers deserve to have the most basic amenities Good Road, Lights, and water. Hopefully now that the plight of the people has been brought to the attention of those in authority something can be done. Wishing you all the best.
you are welcome.
I can live up here.......... 😍❤ LOVE IT! #ORIGINALITY 👏🏾👏🏾❣❤ GOD BLESS U'LL 🙏🏾
This was so touching and heartbreaking at the same time. Thank you for showing me this part of our country.
you are welcome and thanks for the feedback, it's very much appreciated.
I live here and never heard this place before, thanks for sharing
you are welcome
First time I'm hearing about it also
This is so heart breaking,we take so much for granted.
All my life I never knew or heard about this village and it hurt my heart to see how these law abiding citizens crying out for help please Dr Rowley look into these people plight and help them they not asking for much
I could live up there. If only I had money, I would develop that area a bit more. It's so beautiful and untouched. Thanks for sharing!
Hey you are so welcome.
I went to school in Cumaca....My father was once the vice principal of the school....We use to go up the mountain on a motorbike....The first guy speaking on this video....Him and I were in the same class.....He is a really nice guy.
@@haydensuperville1967 you sound like you maybe have some very interesting cumara stories
Welcome to country life, awesome life.
That is what is killing the place urbanization
You dont want to go live up there and over develop the area.
Make this video go viral, let these people get a road, share it. Good job. Each one help one
Some of the best local cinematography i've ever seen!!! This man's work is amazing.
Blessings man, thanks for the feed back. It's appreciated 😁
Please leave Cumana as it is. Ah good road ,water ,power. Do not sell your land ,or they will destroy it Like Toco,,
Cumaca...Cumana is in Venezuela
@@carlosnoriega6878 ..... Are you paying attention to the video. It is about a village in Trinidad not Venezuela.
Carlos there is a Cumana Village, Toco in Trinidad. I spent my summers there since my father is from there. Venezuela may have a place named Cumana also but this is about Trinidad
@@shellyh.2033 I know its about Trinidad...
But im seeing that the natives are calling it CumaCA and thats also the spelling on the video ..So you might have a Cumana in Trinidad I'm not disagreeing about that.
But this video is NOT about that Cumana
This video is on CumaCA..
Thats all im going to say on this topic..
Thanks though for letting me know that Trinidad also has a place called Cumana.
Seems like theirs a lot of things in common between Trinidad and Venezuela.....
@@carolking8835 Who said that it wasnt a village in Trinidad ?
What I said onve again Carol King...is that the locals call it Cuma CA..... NOT
Cuma.NA..
And that theres a Cumana in Venezuela but im hearing that theres also a place called Cumana in Trinidad just not this place....
Omg peace n serenity wish I could live in a place like DAT
This was fantastic ! Well planned. Well executed! We need for footage like this to appreciate the pure majestic beauty and history of our paradise.
This is a well done video that should be sent to the Prime Minister’s office, ministry of works, Regional corporation and all other heads of administrations who are responsible for and can alleviate the plight of these citizens to help in making their lives more comfortable, come on now my people in government, we spend a lot of money elsewhere that can be put to better use in helping these folks with amenities that the rest of us take for granted. The lady who spoke last is so humble and at ease with the situation having spent most of her life there, that she is okay with ‘stream water’. That’s not okay. As a Trinidadian this hurts. Please pay attention to there woes, not only during election.
My island Trinidad and Tobago
Public utilities have solar panels for them
There are only a few people living there. Not enough votes, so why would the government care? This is how T&T operates unfortunately.
I feel so bad, but I know how people from the outside help.... help themselves of you..
Not too sure the authorities will care too much about this effort. They have never done anything to improve these facilities in these valuable sites to encourage local and International tourism. But they keep talking about it since independence. All they focus on is the 3 leading beaches but no ecological appreciation. Age old trees in the gardens and in the Savannah are cut down due to lack of appreciable attention,- allowing termites and fungus to overtake them. The trails for these places should be made more functional and safe for everyone. What a pity.
Tku for sharing this. Those people are blessed. They are living in the clouds, closer to God. Don't you see what the modern world is faced with, bills, stress and Covid. God is trying to show people how to survive without luxuries. What you have many wants. Many may think you are in Paradise. Be happy God's people. Blessings.
thank you for this reminder. I appreciate it.
I truly would like them to get a road, it's really bad.
My children great grandfather aka Sonny Christian came from Cumaca.
AMEN
Lord. Jesus Christ. love to. come down to. our level its doesn't matters where it. could be. in the pig. pen in. the cave that's where he loves to. hang. out. to. met all your needs. to. supply but be. sure you. are. connected to. him. in. prayers fasting. and. started living righteous that. will. saved you in his paradise home
Totally agree with you...
look my mummy old school!! so much history in Cumac. Much love and blessings to the Patrong family the products of platanal to the world!!!
Im a Very proud Trinidadian and this is a lovely place with nice people! Will like too visit there one day and help the people if i can! Thank God there is still a natural place that isn't developed in Trinidad! Originality is the best...Rowley should assist them tho! 🤷♀️🇹🇹🤔
Each frame raises more pores everytime. 💛 Very beautiful thank you for capturing these beautiful stories.
Not a problem, I really appreciate your comment. Thanks a lot
I never know trinidad could be so pretty , and I living here my whole life !
God bless the people of Cumaca. These Beautiful people deserves to have the roads and electricity they are in desperate need of. I pray that the Trinidad government will help them asap.
I am moved to tears for the plight of this community! Please somebody, help them get electricity at at least! In this day and age! Trinidad haves much money! No proper facilities! This is such a paradise! I could live there but I need electricity and water! Basic supplies! Why they have to suffer so much. But because they are poor humble people, no one in power cares! Such a shame! Thank you for such a powerful video!
Really powerful message
Thanks a lot
I'm from Trinidad and never heard about this place. Bless this place lord
Each viedo is like a movie.
Hey, thank you.. I would do a movie sometime.
keep the wooded areas the planet doesnt have much of those left.
yes, but can i live there please please please.
All they want is electricity and a good road is that to much to ask.. you can have a forest and still have modern amenities
@@historyonthego you dont realize the bigger picture behind it, the whole govt is corrupt and if u call the police to respond to a crime they will send you into ur own house first if u tell them there is a thief in it, the land it lawless over there and 80% of police r crooked or are getting paid by some drug lord .
trinidad and tobago (the both island) combined are almost 20 something times smaller than new york city, i wish obama didnt wage war on iraq and spend those funds saving the amazon :3
I love it. Mist gently caressing all the greenry, creating such breathtaking landscapes. Crystal clear rivers. Jeeze, remind me of my childhood.
The good old days
Wow! this is the kind of life I always dream of I really don't care for modern commodities. Such natural living is very precious and I wish I was a part of it.
All I can say is that you did it with this one. Love the testimony of the residents government of Trinidad and Tobago listen and hear the crys of these humble residents.
Thanks bro
Great job bro Trinidad is the most beautiful place on earth proud strong hard working people we live in love and unity
Hey blessings to you, thanks a lot.
My dad is from Trinidad, and I never been , so I love these videos, makes me feel connected to my roots
hey, thats goodto know, thanks for the feed back, its appreciated.
Omg..something needs to be done to help this community ASAP..
It is such a natural treasure..
Village hidden in the mist man, top quality content, videography, editing and audio. Make this into a video series! There are so many interesting and relatively far flung places in Trinidad that need this highlighted. Keep it going boss
Thanks a lot, very good feed back. Really appreciate it
I second Mr. Kissun’s motion. I’m watching this from New Orleans. Makes my heart swell seeing all of the beauty. #❤️fromanexpat
Lots of countries still does have materials things?
Some countries in Africa ?
Some Spanish countries still doesn't have anything.
If u looked it up on You Tube u will see.
Mr Hasiff, God bless you, you are amazing for doing this, I am from Point Fortin I would have never seen or even know that this place existed in Trinidad and I'm grateful to now know, keep up the great videos, we appreciate it, and this village is my dream, I've always wanted my four children to grow up in a area like this where you VALUE what is actually VALUABLE, again God Almighty bless you
blessings to you as well, I'm now reading some messages, was out for a while, I am back now. thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it.
I have mixed feeling on this because progress sometimes bring more problems that simple living. Look at that 77 year old woman I know people in their fifties dont look so alive. I sure she don’t take a pill.
That woman 77yrs? WOW!!
I as well don't think she takes pills, when I was there, I did ask about some of the hubs because some wanted and she got a lot for all different illnesses, she knows her stuff.
This was amazing. Honestly, you have the best local content I’ve seen thus far on CZcams.
hey thanks brother, your feed back is truly appreciated.
It is beautiful. Development will spoil it.
Please don't stop making these videos. I love to see my country and the history of it. I do hope the road gets fix. But what they have there is priceless💕
I know many may not agree but you all are better than the rest because you all are in your natural habitat untouched and crime free. You made it all these years and still look so fresh, young and healthy. Better roads will cause an invasion on your peaceful lives. Plant your food its the best and keep living simply. I will not mind living this way away from all the craziness in the world today. Be thankful and complain less just work together for the betterment of the few still blessed to be alive. Such awesome beautiful scenery.
Great job Husiff!!!.You are an intelligent brave and courageous person who bring these videos before our eyes in these pandemic times. Great history and knowlege of these hidden treasures of sweet T&T. Places to see and learn about.!!!Keep up the good work.
hey thank you so much. good morning.
This appears to be politically motivated. Why would you move into an area like that. ?
@@dorricknurse9427 it's not politically motivated, lord, it's not, wasn't directed to any party in particular. Where ever the help comes from it don't matter, it could be now or in the future, it don't matter. My intentions isn't to create problems or even to confuse anyone. Blessing to you.
Thanks for this very interesting video. I am a Trinidadian and didn't know this lovely village exists. Sweet T&T. Trinidad is really a gem with hidden treasures.
you is a big ass. the place in the people heart regardless of the living conditions. that's why they're still there... and the government should of helped these people a long time ago stupess. big up yourself husiff.
I love nature, this is the most beautiful place I have ever seen. So natural and Unspoiled by modern intervention. It might seem like you guys are left out but actually, you are privileged. I am dying to be a part of this beautiful community.
Wow didn't even knew places like this exists back home. So beautiful
This is the best live and people may not want to be infiltrated by the toxic world
No lie, I grew up in that area and move as well, but as much need to be done, I don´t want them doing much is too beautiful to mash up things there.
you so sweet y you leave paradise
The government needs to do better.... How could they ignore it for so long. Smh.
First time I am seeing this part of our country. It's really nice hope the residents get the amenities it is needed especially the electricity and roads.🙏❤👍👍
Visited Cumaca in 1991/2. Not happy with the lack of support that they have had over the years. Despite having that huge quartz quarry back then. While I love nature, my heart goes out to these beautiful people.
Here every Creed and Race Finds an Equal place, and may God bless our Nation. I Remembered visiting Cumac once this is a nice place. Can't believe that the Road is in the same condition.
It is really bad.
"Help Is On The Way"...But Be Careful...When Doors are Too Wide Open.. The Reality Of Your Paradise Can End... In Less Than A Decade..: - )
You said it best
Great job bringing the forgotten unpolluted, majestic outdoors into our tiny living spaces.
Yes 🇹🇹 is beautiful indeed but these villagers need help asap! I'm living in the US but will look into how I can contribute. Thanks for sharing their stories👍
Best advice keep it like that because when the place too develops people will start coming up in and spoil the little heven. That place is so beautiful and on touch. Iove that place I remember that I were only 10 years old I always wish to go and lived there.
The filming, the editing and the videography in a whole was truly well done, very very informative as well, these residents truly deserve better!!
Thanks a lot, I appreciate it. Max
Youall are doing great work i am 63 and never seen this place so much is wasted in this land for so long by those in power the good we do will never be fogotten even when we die see what eric did and how that lady just by saying he build the school is like she was blessing him and also panday. My aunt said that george chambers was one of the bestt pm in her time .he would come in the centre in santa cruz and listen to everyone needs and attend to them she blessed him .when humble people bless it very fruitful caring for those in need is the reason we are here on this earth for ego blocks our true purpose .
what a powerful message, thanks for sharing your thoughts, persons can learn from this message.
People in authority listen to the plight of these people and attend to their needs. These people need some recognition and respect. What about election time when candidates campaigning in these areas all yuh does promise with no performance. These people in these hidden communities are humans not animals.
What a great video. I was born in Trinidad left when I was 10 years old. This really touched me. Politics aside they should really help these humble people. God bless them. Thanks for shedding light on this beautiful place.
You are welcome, thanks you.
Incredible , I am a native of T’dad & Tobago yet don’t recall such an area.... very typical , sad plight ( what negligence) if oil was present or bauxite or other natural resource ; this story would be different.... in some respect there is a blessing to be in such a “ virgin state ...... save for the plight full condition one has to endure. The politicians should own this shameful revelation ... Sad , Sad, Sad. !!!
Thank you for highlighting this. It's refreshing to see humility of our people.
Thank YOU
There is a very good chance these pole don't get as sick as those living in built up areas of the country simply because they are close to nature surrounded by all the luscious fauna. They look more strong & in their right mind than many. Such a beauty! Hope I can visit soon and experience their luxury. Sm comm, electricity & road def needed. Gr8 vid
Everytime i see your videos i fall in love with Trinidad again, we need to take better care of our properties, and antiques as well as historical posessions, our time and energy should be spent on preserving and maintaining, and caring for our land and our antique buildings, museums, churches, temples etc.We need to stop thinking America is everything, because out there is really overated, there is no place like home and we need to take care of our little home because it all we have as a people.btw, your editing skill is superb.Keep up the great work.Cant wait to see more.
Hey goodevening, you are so right, home is home and we really could do more to preserve our land, its truly a paradise, i must say i really appreciate it.
Thanks for your genuine feedback, its most appreciated. Come home soon. Enjoy the carribbean life.
My country is breathtakingly beautiful 🇹🇹
Wow! Amazing...sweet T&T
yes, we got it nice rite here.
Love from saint lucia 🇱🇨 This really touched me because i use to think us country people have it hard down here in St lucia but cumaca story taught me that we have it good. Well done sir for this documentary continue the good work and i hope your videos help make a difference. 👍
Hey, good morning to St Lucia, thanks for your feed back. I appreciate it, I would do a follow up on any progress.
Someday I would visit your country, I hear it's really beautiful, paradise.
@@Husiff Respect brother 👊. I is a man i love nature from youth growing up in country and my country as they say is the island of paradise but we all know every islander arguably accepts his/her country as the 1 true island 🏝 of paradise 😊. Regardless we famous for our Gros Piton and Pitit Piton (Twin mountains) and other heritage sites but recently our current government has opted to sell land from our heritage site and it is scary. So when i see videos like yours it inspires me explore my potential but one day i will be able to make my own CZcams channel to document my country.
Hey! Why say one day, you could start today, use your cellphone so by the time you get more equipment you would be loaded with knowledge, I started with a phone. It work great to tell your story. I don't like how your government sell the land gosh, that takes away from the people who os love their country.
I don't have expensive fancy equipment, everything I have I got it used from Facebook, buy it part by part over the years. It's fun while creating great memories. So don't let nothing stop you. Just start.
A place I will one day live fir the rest of my days on this Earth....PEACE AND BEAUTY ALL AROUND ME 🇹🇹❤
Heaven on Earth.. Blessing in disguise.. Captivating.. And overwhelming.. ❤
I really enjoyed this I know river and that water bess tanty looking rel good for 77
she really do lol.
Unbelievable, in a time like this! The good side I'm sure they have a great relationship within the community, more connected.
Almost 40yrs and this is my first time hearing about this community. Thanks sir!
You are welcome
This guy did a wonderful job exploring and interviewing people and places in Trinidad I need even though existed. It's nice to see someone cares about the living conditions of our own Trini people. I left Trinidad at the age of 21, and now I will love to explore more of my country on my many return trips. Thank you for sharing. I hope all the selfish government of Trinidad and Tobago will extend their courtesy and help establish cumaca village..its a paradise for peace🙏
thank you, I am glad to see you are inspired to hit the outdoors, connect relax. free your mind
2 minutes and 19 seconds is one of my favorite shorts
With how things going this 2020..I feel I could move there right now before the zombie apocalypse break out serious.
😁😁let's go
Same here!
Same thing here with the Democratic! They come and see you when they need your vote. God’s bless!
Being a country girl. Therebis no place more therapeutic than all that green life . I could live there and not miss city life. Your neighbours are a walk away and that's just the way i like it. Heard so much about there but never really seen its beauty.
Now that's a great family investment.
Thank you for highlighting. The people need more than promises
Hey thanks to you as well, love your comment
The cinematography 🔥🔥🔥🔥👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾but Cumaca really needs our attention
Yeah, i would be heading up there some time and do some work.
This is such a beautiful area it would be nice to teach them how to take advantage of living off grid. One gentleman spoke of solar that's a fantastic idea so maybe the gov't should look at investing some idea of solar energy here and fix the roads.
I was thinking along the same lines... Is there a go fund me page or something of that sort being planned?
Well said
Beautiful editing, this video really breaks my heart hearing these villagers talk. I really hope this video reaches out to the prime minister, and they could feel the feelings that i'm feeling and they could really assist these people to get lights, water and a good road.
Imagine you voting a party and they ain't business about you or to develop areas in trinidad. What's the sense voting.
This one of my favorite videos.. When I come to Trinidad this is a place i must see. Tranquility and peace I see💖
this is amazing .thank you for doing this.The caribbean needs more of these video.
This is an eye-opener. Hope someone in authority can do something to mitigate these residents plight. Nice place to isolate though. TYFS! BLESSINGS!
You are welcome
Hello Husiff,
Great video skills, excellent of you to shine a spotlight on this hidden ecological gem. Hopefully they will get the improvements in basic amenities that they so desire while still preserving their way of life.
Thank you for posting videos during these challenging times.
Good morning, thanks for your comment, yes I really hope something happens for them. I do hope so.
And you are most welcome
My grandmother always spoke about visiting Cumaca Village & like the 77 year old lady she was from Arima; she died 5yrs ago at 82yrs. I hope to visit Cumaca one day.
Visit man. One day, bath in the river, engulf your self with nature.
My aunty once upon a time had a dirt (mud/dung) house and it was the most comfortable place I have ever been in the countryside. I miss those days very much. When I was a kid even though I was afraid to walk through the teak forest plantation's lonely road to get to my aunty house, it was all worth it.
Remember I saw a family in my country of Jamaica living with out floors ,just a Carpet on the dirt,.I cried when I saw that.smh
