Yup. I remember banker.

I understand where you're coming from. This festival was NOT the fault of the Bahamas. It was organized by a U.S. promotion company who failed to make the proper arrangements and amenities needed to make the festival a success.

However, this ordeal sheds light on a condition that many of us as Bahamians are either too proud or too ashamed to admit. The fact can no longer be denied...... The Bahamas is a dump. Our out islands are a dump. Most if not all of the family islands are desolate and dismal with absolutely no entertainment venues to engage visitors. Hundreds of tourists leave our country every year disappointed, dissatisfied, and disgusted with their experience here in the Bahamas. The Bahamas is dirty, it's underdeveloped, it's overpriced, and thousands of guest often leave shocked with their unfulfilled vacation experience.

I work in the United States and have met many people that vacation in the Caribbean. And let me tell you..... of all of the people that I've met, none of them were thrilled about their experience in the Bahamas. Their complaints are often identical to everything that I've mentioned above. The sad truth is that our country is no longer the attractive tourist destination that we think it is. The only thing that is keeping our tourism industry alive is Atlantis and our close proximity to the United States. Our government has failed to enhance our tourism market. Our country looks dirty and dingy to guest who arrive from developed countries. I took a Caribbean cruise a few years ago... and one of the stops was in Nassau. When I got off of the ship.... I couldn't tell you how embarrassed I was to be a Bahamian. Downtown Nassau needs a massive overhaul. Derelict, abandoned buildings need to be demolished and replaced with attractive infrastructure that bares an attractive Bahamian theme. Something that will attract and entertain our guests. Ironically, the last time that downtown Nassau was renovated was over twenty years ago when Hubert Ingraham and the FNM first took the initiative. Our country needs a government who is serious about improving our tourism market.

Tell the entire story and stop talking shit! Prime Minister Hubert Ingraham made Brent Symonette relinquish that contract or he was about to make him step down. So Brent gave up the contract!

That's the difference between the FNM and the PLP. When members of the FNM are caught in any type of scandal, actions are taken by the leader of the party and members are held accountable. Just ask John Bostwick!

The PLP on the other hand has NO ethics or moral compass! None of their members have EVER been held accountable for their actions. EVER!!! So carry ya stupid, shit-talkin ass Birdie. Roun here tellin half a story.

Your colors are showing again.

Bingo!
So where is the PLP's manifesto?

Like birdiestrachan?

Dishonorable behavior to say the least.
But what does it say about our country when we have citizens who would vote for a man like this? Shameful

My feelings exactly. The PLP is a disgrace. Can you imagine how the rest of the civilized world views us?

@SP...... Yup. Political suicide indeed.
Greed and the unquenchable desire for power was her downfall. History books are filled with idiots like her.

Every time this man opens his mouth.... nothing but nonsense comes out.
This sham opening is nothing more than a pretense and a political stunt to give the impression that Christie and his government have done something worthwhile when we all know that isn't the case. It's an election stunt that will backfire in the upcoming weeks simply because it insults the intelligence of the Bahamian public.

Mr. Christie.... Bahamar is NOT open, and this unconventional platform that you are trying to create in an effort to score political points will blow up in your face.
