First Point: Bahamians should stop wasting their time arguing using reason and logic, because this country is majority ruled by the same type of African tribal cabal that is currently raping and looting South Africa to death.

Second Point: The Bahamas is joining WTO for corrupt reasons, likely because China is pushing it, so logic and research is not relevant.

Third Point: The Bahamians that will benefit from WTO are the black ruling class that are in the pockets of large multinational corporations. They would push the Bahamas to join WTO even if it meant the Bahamas islands would sink under the sea.

Fourth Point: The Haitian and Jamaican lobby are also pushing WTO, in order to increase migration and further dominate and limit Bahamian sovereignty.

My main contention is that whether or not the Bahamas joins WTO will be determined by a Bahamian political elite that will profit from handouts and corruption. They will be given share equity and high paying positions on company boards. We can scream and shout all we want, but the fate of the Bahamas will be determined by passionate self interest and corrupt purposes, not by logic, research and expert analysis of the pros and cons for the Bahamian people.

Much better content than Laing. A critical approach. Laing talks like he read a brochure on WTO. Ryan talks like he actually has spent some time with players in the field and analysing the situation. At the end of the day, neither of them seem extremely specialized in international trade and the WTO, so it is still difficult to make a final decision.

I wish Mr. Laing would tell us which countries are seeking these bilateral agreements. China anyone?

BahamaPundit says...

And nobody pushes policy in The Bahamas like a Bahamian politician fronting for a foreign company. Ever seen a Bahamian fronting? They act like they're king of the world and have the most honorable intentions! When will these people get a life and stop frigging begging!

The funniest point I get from this article is the Bahamian motivation behind joining WTO is to increase foreign direct investment. Not to create anything. Not to trade anything. But to get more handouts and borrow more. This majority rule lot are so addicted to borrowing. They are obviously joining WTO for completely the wrong reasons.

BahamaPundit says...

He didn't say a single tangible thing. Just words. Just hopes and dreams. Just wishful thinking. Any person reading this would think this guy has a vivid imagination. He wants to enter WTO in the hope and dream that Bahamians will one day invent something worth trading globallly. Mr.Laing should sell bridges to nowhere. He's good at that.

Article: R296 billion – This is how much the South African government wasted in 5 years

Japan. Germany. Taiwan. Singapore.

Many countries have rebuilt themselves after near total devastation in a decade or two.

The answer is very simple.

They Don't want to enrich everyone's lives. They are aristocratic, they can only enjoy their opulent lifestyle and blatant theivery if they keep everyone poor, uneducated and locked in to modern serfdom.

They lower the standard of education, cripple every municipality, rob every state enterprise dry, make dodgy deals with China giving away our mineral rights and locking the country in a debt trap.

It's the African way.

Viva Africa!

The same thing is going on in South Africa. I hate to say this but as long as you have a majority rule Government running this country, it will be rife with corruption. Just face the facts and don't waste your entire life screaming and shouting about corruption. Without removing the majority of the majority rule persons from the machinery of government, widespread corruption is inevitable.
