is this ppp thing a way to launder public assets or money to political cronies?

It's a way to award no bid contracts

Notice how Carl Bethel refuses to name all of the parties involved in each of these six PPP ventures put on hold even though we, the people, have every right to know who they are. Where is all of that transparency we were promised by Minnis during the election campaign?!

Just think Numbers!

My sentiments exactly bahamalove

Bran why don't you try to use ya head some times. . .ain't you a lawyer? You know that everybody have some right to privacy aye? The word in the Minister's press release in "REVIEW". . .AND IN CASE YA DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT WORD MEANS. . .TIT MEANS HE CHECKIN IT OUT FOR ANY SKULDUGGERY. . .then let the chips fall where they may! I done see that if yinna did get the government we would have been paying a hell of a lot of money in legal actions for breach of constitutional rights!! So just shut the heck up and carry ya foolishness somewhere else!! Hump!! Errytime people talking sense you and them two PLP around here just keep talking cow pies! Man just chill hear. . .

You're a real idiot, and no doubt McCartney himself must be getting a good chuckle off of your idiocy. Most of us will simply continue ignoring just about everything you post to this website, and with good reason!

Yep, think of numbers and what pretty things grow in your garden

PPP's can be great way for broke governments to get infrastructure projects going but everywhere else in the world they are set up a little more transparently than Pig Greedy Christie style

Comrades!I can't imagine why it is that members this "4th" Red Shirts Regime- will talk about any other people's business dealings but think that despite the state funds of to the tune of some $1.9 Billion handed over to prop up Baha Mar - they still decided they need keep certain Baha Mar dealings all secretive?
Was their promises to tell all about Baha Mar and to reduce the costs on "Bread Basket" items - just the two most perfect campaign illusion ever to hit our Bahamaland campaign trail? {There's nothing funny to fib about lowering prices on "Bread Basket" items}.

The concept of PPP was considered a good thing to get the Bahamian private sector to invest in the communities ......... but the PLP PM/Cabinet even succeeded in making that a government rip-off to benefit their cronies .......... I agree with the sentiments above ...... NAME THEM

Mr. Bethel seems like the opposite of what the people were looking for in an AG. Too bad. He seems too much a part of the old school boys club (let sleeping dogs lie) to be of any use to this younger generation. An AG who refuses to prosecute obvious wrong doing will be the immediate death of the FNM. Hey Mr. Bethel, why not be qiet until you've reviewed all the files. I'd start with the 11 million hurricane payment. Duhhhh!!!!

Instead of It's the People's Time seems like all we going to get is It's the People's Crying. Crying without action is a damn waste of time!!!

The last straw for me was when the AG quoted Shakespeare. Keep your jokey qoptes to yourself please. This is not a clowning matter. Shut up and get to work prosecuting these criminals.

Why are you angry? Didn't you get your wish. Your party won. They have access to every file. I guess they're unable to find what they told you they would. LMAO. It's looking more and more with each passing hour like you get swing. I understand your anger and feel your pain.

Every contract **P**illage **L**oot **P**lunder AND former **F**oreign **N**ational **M**ovement entered should be forensically audited to flush out and prosecute these pirates that have destroyed our country for personal gain.

PM Dr. Minnis must be made to understand the electorate demands that either we are going to purge our country of corruption, confiscate all illegally obtained monies and punish those responsible to the fullest extent of the law or not. No halfway measures will suffice.

These pirates took turns pillaging the country and the Bahamian people and must NOT be allowed to walk away laughing scot-free with the peoples' assets!

If you can find the contract.
I overheard a plp saying that 'the ministry cannot find a copy of his contract'.
Then, if he does not have a signed contract, just stop paying him , just like they did the culture contractor.

They could save a lot of money that way. no one has to honour a non existent contract.

Excellent Rap4 ........ If a person cannot present his/her signed contract, why should anyone just pay them from the Treasury?????? ......... That is what the auditing should be about ....... find the money trail

Carl Bethel ,a PLP in disguise!

He may not be a PLP ............. but he is part of the political brotherhood (like the Lodge system of secrecy and codes) ............. The Bahamian political brotherhood will circle the wagons when the masses begin to rise up

The public Treasury requires a copy of contracts to be filed with them before they make payment. A part of the required supporting documents. At least I know this to be their policy.

If the FNM do not prosecute it will be due to fear that should they lose the next election they will be prosecuted too. Fear is sn unacceptable reason. Grow some balls and pursue justice for the Bahamian people!

I am so glad that doc does not allow himself to be "swayed" any which-a-way like PGC. . .because if he follow some of these dumb crap posted here he will be just a stupid as the PLP was in government. . .but I hope that yinna will support "governance by cabinet's whim" like so many of yinna are advocating when the gun is turned yinna way! Then yall would want fair and balanced and constitutional reviews!! I am beginning to feel like I am down on Minnie street with Roffie them who never finished high school trying to tell the government how to run the nation!! The international community must be looking at this site and others like it and saying to themselves: " they have a good opportunity to break the back of corruption in the Bahamas. . .but if the government follows some of those asinine advice given by joe public. . .they would lose that golden moment to get it right"! Thank God for teaching doc how to "hold he head in the mids of plenty stupid talks" during the time LBT them was chappin him all over he head for all them years!! So yinna partisan voices on this site keep in mind. . .THIS IS THE PEOPLE'S TIME". . .we are the opposition. . .so act like yinna got some dang sense and keep ya childish nonsense to "ya sef"! We done teach the PLP that as said Dr. Munroe. . .the old stupid
way of "doing politics" IS OVER!! Only sane, common sense and acting like ya got some smarts about ya needs to apply!!

Honestly tried to comprehend what you said, but couldn't make sense of it. What exactly are you advocating?

Yeah this "licks2" guy makes no sense.. Way off on an emotional tangent.
