Cayman is far more cleaner, organized and in turn, civilized, so only fitting that their Civil Service should be appropriately rewarded for doing a good job.
The situation with the Barge in Long Island that could have been easily pulled away, but instead allowed to sink with all cargo (including many, many gallons of diesel) is much worse than even this situation in Bimini, albeit the same in terms of response from the Ministry of the Environment.
BTC went through the "motions" of an RFP a year ago to outsource the Directories, only to react when the current Sales Agents put together an all Bahamian Group, by promptly awarded the Contract to a Jamaican Company ... so much for "Believe" in Bahamians, and look at this Year's Directories ... Worst Ever!
The Boat was "banned" for having "broken" the Rules governing what qualified as a "native" Sloop eligible to compete in our "Bahamian" Regattas. A simple change in Ownership does not change the fundamental reason for why the Boat was banned, albeit it is more and more obvious every day that this is not a Nation of Laws, so I suppose, why would our National Sport be any different?!?
The real Question Marks for me are how do Relatives, Friends and Connected Persons (eg. House Keeper and Home Owner) allow 10 days to elapse before sounding the alarm. All need to be brought in by the Police for interviewing, as even if they are truly missing, all these people are culpable for the lateness of the search effort.

Reduce the Civil Service by 40% and those that remain can be justly rewarded based on merit and performance.
