I suspect their behavior was less than stellar. If you want respect give respect. very simple. Too many people believe that police officers are not real people and do not deserve respect. Not saying they are all perfect but always stay calm, respond to questions and if neccessary take the badge number.

^^^ obviously not Bahamian despite the handle.

Meanwhile, my bank is getting the 32nd copy of my utility bill for mailing address for the home which they hold a mortgage over. Irony at its finest.

"would boost The Bahamas’ ability to attract the high-end, legitimate international business that the economy needs by demonstrating its ability to swiftly resolve complex commercial disputes, while also reducing legal costs faced by local investors." meanwhile front page headline business closing.

NO, you don't need not politicians. you need all new staff in every office adn department in the entire country. it is the only way anything with change.

Are you interested in the Bahamas becoming communist or socialist? i can't tell. (squints eyes) You obviously don't believe that a person should be able to keep the fruits of their labour.

I suggest Mr. Smith doesn't know what he is talking about. "Grass roots" and "Legislative" are completely and entirely diametrically opposite concepts, and often mutually exclusive. Lets look at the black market for illegal marajuana. it is fully completely legislated to be illegal but the grass roots response is the black market and illicit trade in the illegal substance. just because you legislate something doesnt mean it will happen. Perhaps Mr. Smith should try to work with the people who have invested millions and millions of dollars into this country and the industry instead working against them? It is clearly evident that he has a bone to pick with some lodge or foriegn owner who wouldn't bow down to his demands. Good for the goose right? I tell ya what, i certainly don't want to try and start a fishing lodge business in this country right now. the red tape and BS will cost you grey hair and millions of dollars.

It is certainly very good for the sellers of paper and ink.

perhaps he meant the coffers of the nation not the soul?

had another instance where the call centre told me one thing went to the branch they told me something different, back to call centre, back to branch. this went on over a multiple days until i basically said thanks i'm going to another bank. then they finally fixed whatever the inexplicable problem was. And the banks wondering why their cost of business is going up, maybe its the silly protocols you've put in place, but we have to suck up the burden of teh extra costs in larger banking fees. $80 to send a $1,200 wire to US bank, highway robbery i tell ya. i'm going to switch to BOB where i don't have to pay back my loans and my MPS is be my compliance documents.
