LMAO...Bogart say underground tunnel...ROTFL Bahamians walk when and where they please and Jitney's stop anywhere there is NOT a designated bus stop...I lose respect for pedrestrians when you slow down to let you cross and they do the slow walk from hell when you were trying to do them a favour...
BIG problem with Eleuthera...go back to Club Med closing down...bunch of thieves stealing from their employer...let's see how Disney deals with them and how fast industrial unrest kicks in...in the meantime unspoiled land gets destroyed...
none of us were given the 'clarity' of the zero rated concept until late in the game...the 'zero rated' items still get charged VAT when the items enter the country with customs...but, from that point on no one else can charge VAT on it, so the government is robbing the importer of their ability to reclaim the VAT at the time of sale onto the next person, increasing the VAT burden on the importer.
As great as it sounds...I can't see the sheer scale of this paying any dividends...the movie fees and concessions fees will likely be so expensive, no one will be willing or able to go unless you are super rich...I will be quite happy to be proven wrong, i've been in setups like that around the world and it's amazing...but even the last man standing just now with Galleria/RND are more trouble than they are worth...Will have to check it out early on while they are riding the initial wave of novelty success.
BTC isn't profitable at 2/3's because it's still dealing with the dead weight of being a former government run entity with outrageous union contracts and demands.

"if anything happens to one foreign worker who recently showed up at the company, they should "leave him on the ground dead""
How is this even acceptable rhetoric? Comments like this, and many others that he has made in the past should get him fired.
