Abstract
Together with a second note (Warta Geologi, April 2023) I summarise the geological development of the island of Trinidad and the adjacent margins of the Caribbean Sea in order to compare them with parts of Southeast Asia. I believe the two provinces provide valuable analogues for each other and I illustrate this by considering examples of tectonic style taken from transpressional fold belts in Trinidad and eastern Java, from the evolution of foreland- and wrench basin stratigraphy and from striking similarities between the stratigraphy and structure of Borneo and Trinidad Tertiary continent margin deltas.
