The politicians , especially the PLP destroyed the civil service.Through their fostering of victimization,nepotism, cronyism and plain dumb bone headed decisions. As for this economy. git can't flourish in this new global economy.The financial services sector is on its death -bed being pressured by the OECD countries.Tourism will face increasing competition from other countries in the caribbean especially Cuba,the Dominican Republic and Jamaica.

The chairman of BPL should request this information from the managers of BPL.They should know how this came about ,if they are managing the company.If the managers of BPL can't supply this information,they should be terminated.

Did not expect their projections do be off by that amount.A highly educated person told me a few weeks ago,Mr.Johnson is out of his depth.The person said he does not know his job.

Bahamians just need to read these two books. They describe this situation in the Bahamas today. They are Men at Risk and Marginalization of the Black Male in the Caribbean.They were written by a Jamaican,Professor Errol Miiler. He has written about this matter over twenty years ago. But sociology is not a serious subject or studied much in the Bahamas.

Will this NHI scheme be properly managed and provided the desired benefits? Or will be like the environmental levy?

I cry shame on Dr.Minnis. This is his mo.This simply a witch hunt to justify giving his crony Johnson that position.He who comes to equity must have a clean hands.

Jumping to conclusions without getting all the facts.Bishop Boyd spoke about this at the synod. The Bahamas needs FOIA and campaign finance laws. This also happened under the FNM also.

The Bahamas needs a Freedom of Information and Campaign Finance bills passed and enacted into law.Both the PLP and FNM won't say who their donors are and what they promise the donors, once they are elected to office.The t-shirts,food,drinks and entertainment cost money.Bahamians enjoy them and don't ask how they are paid for.Bahamians can't see the forest for the trees.

George Smith does not have any creditibly to discuss ethics. I don't know why the Tribune is always getting quotes from him on these matters.

Mr.Christie is not being truthful. This has happened on his watch.This has been going on since the Bahamas got internal self-government.It is called clientelism.It is where you trade contracts and favours for political support. It also happen under the FNM also.I was at a family gathering when somebody bragged how a senior FNM cabinet minister instructed the chairman of a government corporation to give a contact to the company,he worked for.The acting financial secretary should know about that,he use to work there.
