Fish fry is indicative of Bahamas. Everywhere you go things are dilapidated and or not working, people are doing whatever they want and no one cares. As noted most of us only take visitors to Atlantis or Bahamar or if lucky off island. Government should be embarrassed that over 90% of Bahamians photos from weddings to christenings are done on Bahamar Blvd or on PI, as these are the only places that look good. But hey at least the politicians can do a little dance on the stage so all will be OK.
It won't do this time, but if the fines are large enough it will make sure companies have backups in case things like this go wrong. Like maybe making sure the tow rope is in good condition or maybe a 2nd one.
So wait is this not the job of the police? or are they to just cause traffic jams as they hope to find someone unlicensed. Why a specialist taskforce to do what the police are meant to do. Or is this a public show to make people think something is being done?
Ahh the Bahamas. We must never bad mouth it, even if we can all see it is going down hill. If we speak only good that will be the way people will see it. Whenever someone is honest and shows something that needs to be fixed, we will shoot the messenger and then go back to our fantasy land.
Agree that people need to know that you always run the risk of losing an investment and people need to take that into account. But there seems to be no recourse when things like this happen. The company never even started, so the funds were illegally used and there should be a criminal case. however down here there is no protection for a minority shareholder so i doubt anything will happen.
Why would he say its regrettable, rather then he is looking into it urgently and trying to get it fixed. Seems the way he has worded it that he doesn't care and has no intention of making these payments.
The private sector needs to as one say they aren't accepting any Government business until they are paid up to date. However Government knows they won't do this so they don't care

No we don't care. Once money is involved we will make any excuse up as to why it is ok, which is even easier if the person gives to charity.
