Oh,this is the situation which was circulated on facebook and whatsapp by FNM political operatives.The forged document alleges a senior civil servant, an investor and a member of the securities commission were attempting to take over this company What a bunch of bs. A pack of unadulterated lies and feces. Some Bahamians take for gospel what ever they read on whatsapp and facebook.

I meant to say Bahamian politicians do not want local government, they fear that it would reduce their power. Renward Wells basically said that.

The irony.Here Dr.Minnis is proposing municipal government for the city of Nassau.Yet when he was prime minister,he completely ignored the recommendations for local government on the island of New Providence.That report was done by a committee set by his government.Bahamians do not really want local government,they fear it will reduce their power.

The Bahamas has the third oldest parliament in the Commonwealth Yet the Bahamas is a primitive country, politically,socially and economically. That was the opinion of a noted political scientist and writer.

There has been a successful third party in the Bahamas. It was the Bahamian Democratic Party which served as the official opposition after the 1977 general elections. It had broken away from the FNM. Before that ,the third party was the Free PLP which eventually became the FNM.Bahamian history is not really taught in this country.

Bahamians tend to vote on hate and emotions. Also some bahamians still vote along racial and class lines.Political patronage and offering inducements for votes is common in this country. That is why third parties who do not have access to significant financial resources have such hard time getting support in this country.The Bahamas in some ways until recently was seen as semi -feudal society by some observers.

That is the view of the Bahamas and Bahamians held by some caribbean persons.

Police brutality is common place in this country. Being a hypocrital,self-righteous country,Bahamians don't talk about it much in public. They however are well-aware of it.

Congratulations to Chief Jones. My relatives went to school with him at S.C Mcpherson and A.F.Adderley.

He use to live through Kim's Crescent off Blue Hill Road.My relatives use to walk pass that corner on their way to and from school.

The cabinet reshuffle is nothing special. The cabinet is too large. Governance won't improve.

The Governor General represents the head of state, King Charles 111. Civics is not taught in the Bahamas like so many things. Bahamians do not understand their system of government.

Jamaica which has been independent since 1962 has only had five governor-generals. They had about two acting. Their current governor-general Sir Patrick Allen has served since 2009.The previous governor general Sir Kenneth Hall only served for the three years. he resigned his post because of ill health. He told every body he could not continue in his post because of his poor health. He was not forced out by any political party.

Bahamians are not politically mature enough to have any sensible discussion on changes to this current system of government. Despite what is believed,,the Bahamas is a primitive country politically. That was the written opinion of a politcal scientist and writer.

Sometimes i is just shake my head at some of the things in this country. There are very few competent managers in certain government agencies.The Ministry of Works being a major one.
You mean to tell me after so many years, you finally brought new road improvement equipment.
What were the previous directors of works and senior managers thinking?

I know of senior mangers in the real world. They have both produce a yearly expenditure budget. as well as a capital development budget They also have to produce a five and ten year capital budgets. You mean to tell me for twenty years, you do not purchase equipment of attempt to hire competent staff. Something is seriously wrong in this country.
