- Tap mobiles of suspects. - Monitor social media activity/internet traffic. - Setup a crime prediction system based on historical data. - Increase patrols in hotspots the CPS is showing. - Don't put criminals back on the streets.
"Mar" is actually spanish and means sea. So when i came here the first time the hotel translated for me as "Bahamian Sea" - i'm german. It makes perfectly sense as the Theme for the hotel is to bring the mediterranean riviera to the Bahamas - very smart concept, as it attracts anyone who has been to Monaco, St. Tropez, Costa Del Sol - which is usually a very high-paying european tourist.
To be honest, this countries problems can be fixed within 5 days. Fix the economy and lower government costs by removing import duties and increasing the VAT to 15% as a flat tax scheme, introduce national health insurance and regulate the medical sector more strongly (capped pricing on certain operations and medicine - e.g. i just bought a medicine in Spain for 40 CENTS which costs 40 dollars in the Bahamas), improve education by hiring foreign teachers (maybe 100 teachers through receiving bonuses/visa), modernize the government departments for health, work, education and traffic with computers/eGovernment processes, enforce BEC to accept/buy solar-powered electricity from on-grid systems, force BEC to implement a wind-turbine based percentage of electricity, give police forces the proper tools to fight organized crime (GPS tracking, phone tapping, crime prediction systems, internet traffic logging - all the nice stuff they obviously don't have) - put it all into a bill called "Better Bahamas Bill". There you go, i just fixed the Bahamas.
This is exactly the problem where the education system fails. You are not teaching the children how to learn, you are not teaching them how to reach their goals, how to have a successful life - where parents fail teachers have to be there - if you disagree change your job.<BR> As a german i take those things for granded, in my country in your early years teachers actually teach you how to learn. The problem you described is exactly where you fail. Especially poor families don't give a crap about their childs education, so if books and internet access isn't free - how does that child have an option ? You are just blaming the parents for your inability to teach those children how to learn.
This is exactly why Bahamians cannot compete with the rest of the world - because you don't want to. And i am shocked that such statements are coming from someone calling them-self a teacher.<BR> At this point i wouldn't send my child to a school in the Bahamas - when it's time we'll sell everything here and get back to europe so our child will get the proper education - even while we love the Bahamas it would not be responsible to send your kid to school here.
So putting new money into a project that is getting liquidated is the same thing for her as the original owner looking for some new funding ? Wake up you stupid twat... I would have seen Sarkis looking for a more investors as an opportunity to invest... But if this government would ask me for that i rather burn the money to heat my house.<br><br> Sarkis had vision and reputation. This government counters that with incompetence and greed. Go figure.
