As of late women are finally receiving the commendations that men were receiving for years with less merit.

I can name at least a half dozen women that should have received honours a long time ago for their service. But alas everything in this country as to do with political favoritism. smh

Sounds like there may be more to this story than is being reported. #ijs

Could this possibly be someone who is looking to shed light on how extremely easy it is to abduct children around here.

if I were the parents and law enforcement I would seek to be more vigilant when it concerns children.

Well if you've got more than one wallet, it is up to you to remember to switch out your credentials. Aside from it being required to drive, it is a form of identification. And one should always strive to have identification on them.

Exactly, your drivers license should be in your wallet or purse, and your proof of insurance should be in the glove compartment of the car.

What's so funny is in the USA you must have these things on you at all times, and the millions of people there comply. Why is it so difficult for a few thousand people to comply.

As I always say " Bahamians like slackness."

Fact is Bahamians like slackness...overtaking where they shouldn't, creating their own lanes and short cuts, not wearing seatbelts, pedestrians crossing the road all willy nilly, drivers not paying attention to pedestrians, stopping in the middle of highflow traffic, no use of signals, cars without brake or tail lights, driving using high beams...

And the list goes on... all this and more causes the traffic problems and accidents.

There is no way any one person should be allowed to accumulate more than 10 weeks of vacation in any year. They need to do like the private companies do, use it or lose it. You are not allowed to accrue a ridiculous amount of vacation.

Hopefully going forward they enforce a rule, only allowing at maximum 10 weeks of vacation on the books at any given time. And come the end of the year (Sept), either take the time or lose it.

Too much slack behavior in government offices.

I thought proof of immunizations were mandatory before attending school.

And if it isn't, maybe they should make it so. No child can attend school without proof of the required immunizations, as well as a clean bill of health from a KNOWN doctor.

Shut up, cause we are still waiting on the VAT figures from the first year under the PLP government.

From he said appeal to 16-24yr olds he lost a good much of the over 30 crowd. What over 30yr old wants to be partying at a concert with 16yr olds.

Not me for one...

They should have done a line up like Jamaica has and cater to the 30+ adult crowd- which is who can afford VIP and platinum tickets.
