Take it or leave it.
This was Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar’s advice to Clico depositors up in arms over the government’s proposed bail out of the troubled financial institution.

Since Finance Minister Winston Dookeran announced the proposed Clico bail-out during the budget presentation, a group of depositors have come out in opposition to move.
