There is no objective media houses in this country. They either have personal agendas or are beholden to various business interests.

The Bahamas is a barely literate country. Most Bahamians don't read much. Libraries in this country are both under resourced and not fully utilized. I was surprised that the yellow building next to the Stephen Dillet primary school was a library. I never saw any body enter that building.
The main library for Broward County in Fort Lauderdale was over six or seven stories high. I would not talk about most of the book stores on this island.

Dr. Minnis is a disappointment to say the least. Arrogant, inept, dissmisive and incompetent. His saving grace is that Phillip Davis is problably worse than him. Like some one said to me, I am not a fan of Dr. Minnis but I just can not support Mr. Davis.

This is also one of the worse cabinets and group of parliamentarians ever. Their performance was simply mediocre at best. They have collectively made a series of bone-headed decisions. Like some one said to me ,Bahamians love power and politics. They do not understand governance nor management.

The late Arthur Hanna was a bahamian patriot of the first order. His contributions to the development of this country should be well=known,

I always say that bahamian history is not really taught in the school system here. Quite a number of Bahamians don't understand that they are the beneficiaries of policies advocated and developed by the late Arthur Hanna.

The same way, a lot of bahamians are unaware that the economic model in the Bahamas was not developed by the PLP. This economic model was developed by the late Sif Stafford Sands and the late Sir Harold Christie.

Two tremendous performances at the Olympics games by Miller-Uibo and Gardiner. This nation has produced many world-class athletes. Per capita ,the Bahamas has produced more world-class athletes than many more larger countries.

Mr. Johnson is the acting financial secretary. In a more advanced country, the nature and circumstances of his departure from his last job would already been disclosed in the media. He is woefully unsuited for that position. He would not pass the vetting for that position in any first-world country.

A man among men. A true bahamian patriot.

Take your well-deserved rest sir, after years of service and sacrifice. God Bless.

@IslandWarrior.Sad .Very troubling. That project has been proposed from the nineties, I believe.

That is how things are done in this country. This ignorant, self-righteous country.. Things like this have gone on in this country from the nineteen fifties. This is also one of the factors that is driving the brain drain from this country,

@ Frustrated businessman. The so call spy bill would have to be passed by whatever party is in power. That bill is merely the repeal and modernization of the Listening Devices Act of 1972. The Maycock extradition case that went before the privy council caused that. The senior command of the police force which Dr.Minnis hand selected knew that. The AG'S office also knew that.

This FNM government is doing the same as the previous PLP government. Funneling contracts, business opportunities and jobs to their supporters. The only difference is that the media editorially supports this FNM government.

There has been an intermittent gang war on going on the island of New Providence for two decades now. Quite a number of murders on this island are the result of gang feuds.

Senior politicians of both major political parties are aware of this. There is a lot of complex socio-economic problems on this island. These problems will require both consistent and well -thought out solutions.
