I do believe this corruption in all government departments and agencies started during or shortly after the year 1967 and has continued unabated since. It has grown to such a huge extent that it is indeed the new norm which is exacerbated by those that offer and pay the bribes, facilitating an ever-revolving door to the corruption. Cameras, with audio, are well and fine but the example has to start at the top. As mentioned recently, we have a person holding the position of Governor General who is the widow of the leader of the corruption of our nation which began all those decades ago. How farcical. What kind of example does this set? The People are led by example..........
Once again credit must be given where credit is due.
Not sure about the Hawksbill Creek Agreement though. It is my feeling that this should have run its course by now. Obviously Freeport is not faring any better than the rest of the Bahamas at this point in time.
Also, Immigration is something that should not continue to go the way of the article writer, although human rights should always be respected in all countries.
I do believe both of your points have much merit. The position held up on the hill is a slap in the face to integrity and good governance and should have been rectified MONTHS ago by the current administration. (Sorry, Comrade!)
If waste is costing 100 million dollars a year, stop the damned waste, stop moaning about it. Do not even think about levying more tax on The People, if you cannot rein in this wanton waste, much of which probably has to do with Government's civil servants. Sit still and brain storm until you come up with logical, intelligent solutions to the existing problems, if such a novel idea is possible! Start thinking of The Government as a business, not a money machine for elected officials and their staff!
