Take credit where it is earned

EDITOR, The Tribune.

FINANCES - let’s take credit where credit is due...nothing the Bahamas government did except to agree like the rest of the world to the 15 percent corporate tax. Government did absolutely nothing but there will be a substantial new revenue windfall... millions. Only take credit where it is earned, please.

Tourism 12 million... actually probably more like 8.5m as only 48 percent of cruise the effective substantial increase will ever set foot on Bay or shop in the straw market... everyone complaining.

Providing electricity to the cruise port... instead of Arawak Cay why not old St John’s site adjacent to Police HQ and all that vacant government land... distance to install the high capacity voltage cable has to be shorter than from Arawak Cay to the dock (ministry save money!)

GE jet turbine generator with LNG fuel... fuel can be stored and tanker delivered from Blue Hill.

Vehicles with unregulated lights... everything from the extreme LED bright headlights to every colour under the rainbow... flasher lights on vehicles which are not recognised emergency vehicles. Didn’t the Commissioner of Police say months ago he would be dealing with unauthorised headlights etc?
