A simple Case of “non-existent” Security, as it would take at least 10 to 15 mins to escape the the “Baha Mar” Prperty on foot and then a further 5 to 10 nw to exit the designated Ring Roads by car, with all of such routes easily capable of being blocked.
Clearly mr. Newell (even as a Foreigner) is disgruntled that he was cut out of a Commisssion, so much so that he seeks to bash this new Investment, rather than support in the interests of Abaconians. Reality is as a Treasure Cay Resident of nearly 40 years, what was once the pride of our Family Islands is anything but prestigious, having seuffered years of neglect. Just yesterday, this Top 10 Beach was over run by Haitians playing loud music, walking pit bulls and fighting with each other and their Ghetto Princessess, all in front of what once were Million Dollar Estates that are virtually “unsalable” by even the great mr. Newell, with this situation only getting worse, not better, as evidenced by the lack of Customers at the supposed upscale “Treasure Sands” Club, which found itself instead of “Nikki Beach” more akin to Ghetto Central, so I can see good reason why any “new” Investor would opt for a “Greenfield” Project well away from what has become Treasure Hell for me! Obviously as a Home Owner, writing in such manner does me no financial favors, but sometimes “the truth” is more important than your self interest in a 10% Commssion mr. Newelll. As for mr. Newell’s concern for our Parrots, I wonder why he does not mention that Treasure Cay was the site of the first Settlement on Abaco, namely Carlton, the specific site of which is currently For Sale by mr. Newell’s?!?
Commission of Enquiry is desperately needed, as Isfailian is merely the most high profile Victim of injustice that has been suffered by so many Others at the hands of our corrupt Court System.
For the first time perhaps in the history of our Country we finally appear to be making some effort to address poaching and now there is a debate about level of punishment. These Poachers know full well what they are doing is illegal. Unfortunately, it may already be too late to save our marine resources, which have been plundered for years to the brink of collapse..
As for the Defence Force, what exactly is it’s purpose, if not to apprehend Dominican Poachers, Drug Smugglers and Illegal Haitians and Cubans?!? Surely not to simply moor expensive military craft at Coral Harbour for the occasional Family Island Tour?!?
What a fiasco, this is becoming more and more embarrassing ... imagine if this this had been a Commercial Airline full of Tourists, we would be DONE as a Vacation Destination!
The initial inaccurate reporting on this tragedy and now this response are are both deplorable, as Civilians, however well intentioned, should not be allowed to tamper with a Crash Site, the perimeters of which should have been immediately secured, but as the Picture clearly shows, you now have actual pieces of the Plane being pulled from the seabed onto a Boat. This should never happen without proper supervision and documenting as to location of pieces of wreckage according to Survey of Crash Site, which is now rendered impossible.
This appears to be extremely poor reporting and indeed, inaccurate information of such a significant News worthy Story. As best I can gather, there was only one person on board, the Pilot himself, who successfull ditched the Aircraft, which initially floated before sinking, but first responder Divers found no sign of Pilot, who remains missing.
