I think you are been disingenuous in your statement.They are not representing a different nationality but a grouping of Bahamians(Haitian descent) who may have some shared interest. Again nothing is mentioned about Haiti in the political process, that just a figment of your imagination. Talk about a simple mind.
Life is a cycle. The whites felt the same way about blacks. I find myself pondering whether the son of a Jamaican could become Prime Minister in today's Bahamaland as what happen in the sixty's or whether Steven Dillet (first black elected to Bahamas parliament(Haitian)) would be elected today. The more remove we are from the plantation the more divided we've become. I don't believe in a Haitian Bahamian party but I do think it make sense for them to vote as a block to advance their special interest. In fact, I hope the island I am on will vote as a block to push some interest we have.
Stop the export of copper. I recon that 90% of the copper exported is stolen.I had a 500 lb reel of wire stolen. It was too heavy to carry so they spend probably the entire night cutting it in pieces. They even steal the copper line connecting the gas tank to the stove at my mother's house.
Like one of my posts said previously, the Ministry responsible for Immigration can't be serious about the so call new policy when the allocation for repatriation for 2014 is the same as 2013. Show me the money and I will show you government intentions.
People only tend to carry out an action if there is a reward or a consequence. In the case of the policy there was no reward but a veil threat of a consequence(no registration, no school). The PM did away with the consequence when pressure came to bear. We need to demand that policy are properly thought off before they are announced.How can you announce an immigration policy that impacts the Ministry of Education without first talking to the Ministry of Education.
