Given Mr. Mitchell's behaviour during this period, as Baha Mar was trying to grapple with staying afloat, doing right by the Bahamian people, it is clear Mr. Mitchell has no shame, perhaps no soul.
Mr. Fred Mitchell is a blight on the Bahamian people.
The sooner Mr. Mitchell leaves the stage, however that happens, the sooner The Bahamas can start healing, perhaps moving forward.
Under Mr. Mitchell's supposed leadership and political positions, the people of the Bahamas will suffer for many years to come.
Go Mr. Mitchell.
Just go.,

Repost:
I have a strong sense that Sarkis is on the right side of history. We have continued to compromise ourselves as a country due to the ever lowering bar set fon corruption, ethical behaviour, and a whole host of activities, some legal, some not, that have become prevalent, only some coming to light. I also have a strong sense that Sarkis truly wanted a first class project which would have benefited all Bahamians in so many ways, and that he was well on his way. He was footing the bill to train so many Bahamians, bringing them up to world class standards. Something every government says it will do, but never does. We in the Bahamas helped crush Sarkis' dream, to the detriment of our children's future. None of us should be proud about this sad saga. Whatever happens in the courts, pales in comparison to the damage done to our country, economically and spiritually. Right now, rightfully so, Mr. Izmirilian should be busy helping manage one of the largest positive endeavors this country has ever had the opportunity to have. Instead, he is forced to waste his time seeking justice in an increasingly unjust world. Bahamians should hang their heads in shame. The only glimmer of hope is that much of what went on may come to light. If it is shown that our politicians used this opportunity to enrich themselves, I would hope that they are duly assassinated in the court of public opinion, and held to account in an unbiased court of law.

The PLP are terrified their hand in all this will come out. The deals and the corruption will be their undoing. They will say anything to keep vilifying Izmirlian for fear of their own dirty hands being exposed.

Can Fred Mitchell answer a few questions:

1. Would he walk away from an investment where he has invested over $900 million when he
has strong evidence that not only did the contractor intentionally stall the project, but diverted money from the project to fund his own (similar) project?
2. Did Sarkis Izmililian not call out to the Christie led PLP government, not just once but from early in the project and say he was being hoodwinked and bambozzled by the contractor? And didn't Prime Minister, Perry Christie respond and say, "the man (Izmirilian) is losing his head?
3. Would it be the right and fair thing to do to allow Izmirilian to have his day in court and bring closure to this strange and eventful saga. To clear the names and reputations of those who stand innocent with clean hands and have done no wrong?
4. Isn't it correct that when Izmirilain tried to seek relief for his greviences against CCA and China ExIM bank in the first instance, the Christie led PLP government interfered with the process and through ignorance and their anxious desire to get the project up and running, publicly sided with the Chinese taking away his only access to a lifeline and chances to have his side heard by an independent court in New Jersey.
5. While Mitchel claims Izmirilian is being vindictive, wouldnt it be the right thing to get all the information out, especially to international investors and clear the idea that "the Bahamas government is a bunch or priates who lure investors to the coutry and fleece them and/or assist others in robbing them of their investment?

Firstly, anyone naive enough to believe that Baha Mar is a $3+ billion investment needs to have their heads examined! No way in hell can anyone justify $3000 million for the construction of this property.

Secondly, I personally have the first-hand experience with how the Chinese double projected development investment cost in order to garner 100% financing without actually investing a single penny of their own money by over-inflating Chinese produced products first cost.

Proving CCA scammed Sarkis from day one should be as simple as having qualified quantity surveyors run the numbers on what the actual cost is to develop this property with Chinese made goods.

WHY & HOW Sarkis and Christie acknowledged and accepted the $B3+ price tag from CCA in the first instance for the development is yet another question that must be considered as things go through the wash!

A more tangled weave of deceit is hard to conceive.

And why did not FRED MITCHELL address the portion of the lawsuit that claims that many Chinese workers were working on the BahMar project without proper documents (work permits). And that some workers employed and imported to work at Bah Mar were transferred to the Pointe project without proper documentation and permission from The Department of Immigration. And also Fred Mitchell was the Minister of Immigration during most of the construction phase of Bah Mar. He was responsible for granting permits to thousands of Chinese construction workers and other nationals employed at bah mar. Thousands of permits. Did Fred Mitchell get any money under the table? Even just a lil bit of campaign money? Who financed the swimming pool complex he constructed in his constituency just prior to being soundly rejected be the people of Fox Hill?

He didn't even call their name. Boy, they are still idiots.
