The initial threshold was $250k, subsequently increased to $500k, where it remains until now, save for "supposed" guaranteed acceleration being given to Buyers in excess of $1.5k. All that has changed now is the minimum threshold has been increased again from $500k to $1mil., with the accelerated consideration for Buyers in excess of $1.5mil. presumably remaining in place.
All pretty basic stuff and the fact that those speaking on the topic can not grasp and in turn, mislead the general public, merely emphasizes our "D" Average and why we are doomed if we are not careful.
Clearly proper Seamanship is lacking today given the multiple incidents of negligence involving our Defence Force and the fact that they are provided with multi-million Vessels of varying description is simply unconscionable, much less their abysmal ability to maintain such valuable pieces of equipment. All very sad, as instead of embarrasment, this was once an aspect of Bahamian Independence that all Bahamians could be proud of.
Leaving aside the environmental aspect, this would otherwise appear to be a perfect example of why in business one must "strike while the iron is hot", as by the time we as a Country got our act together, the market had changed and in turn, the opportunity is not what it once was. How many Developers eventually receive their Approvals to simply reply, "oh we gave up and moved on" or worse, "sorry, we went bankrupt waiting" or "you must be joking, the World is back in a Recession now"!
Well done! Finally some tangible evidence of good detective work. Those responsible should be thanked, honored and rewarded as an encouragement to Others to do the same.
If ever there was someone to stop upon Arrival and deny Entry, it is this Lunatic, who clearly does not have our best interests at heart. Scary thing is he appears to have an audience!
Clear decisive and immediate action should be taken to resolve this, as the Country can not afford to be held ransom by a few who fail to recognise that internatiinal travel today is all about seucurity and we have tourist basis economy. Follow Ronald Reagan's example, Fire Them!
