Vidia Naipaul whisper o me dat allyuh used to sell chicken in the ruff as a major aspect of allyuh modernity.  dat fuh ah time dat was all the chicken you cudda get in GT
Vidia was vex.  so he went to get a cup ah coffee and the waitress tell him deh had no coffee but nescafe instant from england.... bring ah cup of hot water to his table, open up the packet and pour the coffee on top the hot water

Vidia say imagine a west indian country with no local coffee, only english instant.
