Just admit that BPL has been run into he ground and the people who make decisions are useless. Nothing will change until we face the fact that we have allowed these quasi government agencies to be run by a bunch of useless people, who somehow get an amazing salary and no comeuppance when they fail, as they always do

Time for them to promise to fix it yet again. And then next summer it will be just as bad. Our companies are run by incompetent people who have gotten there via political friends rather then knowledge. Time to get rid of them and let those who know what they are doing take over. If that happens to be foreigners so be it.

This already a done deal, Like so many before. Who cares about the traffic or anything else. I would bet all the money i have that within 6 months boats will be there all night. Hope the DEPP got the silver they wanted.

Part of the reason when they raised boating fees was the maintenance and installation of channel markers and lights. As anyone who goes between Blue Lagoon can rose can tell the light on the rock there has been broken for years and they have no intention of fixing it. We are a reactive nation, and it will unfortunately take a major accident for things to change (and only maybe change).

Yes speed was a factor, and no doubt drink, but another factor is the state of the roads. All of which shows a complete collapse of a functioning Government. Who is meant to stop Speeders, the Police which is Government. Who is meant to stop Drink drivers, the police which is Government, Who is meant to fix roads, The ministry of works, which is Government. If we enforced all these areas, we would see a lot less crashes on the roads, and by enforce i do not mean a road block every now and then. There will always be some drivers who will break the law, but there will be a lot less.

If Government is able to keep control of Bank of Bahamas and give to their cronies like they did before with Resolve then only a fool would buy shares in that.

The two biggest costs to doing business and therefore cost to the customer are Government inefficient rules/laws and BPL. Fix those and things would get much better. But based on prior Guevremont involvement i expect more bureaucracy and more costs, making doing business harder.

Every time Government decides to get stricter they just encourage more people to not pay. Government just too silly or want to keep the shingles coming from those not willing to pay, to try enforce the law first..

Of course Government thinks it costs $195 to do the inspection. They are the same people who think it costs $10,000 to cut one side of a half mile road every 2 months, or rent a building in the middle of no where for more then rent on bay street.

I highly doubt that these eggs are produced with 100% Bahamian Labour. But that aside the country has to decide if it wants food security or not. If it does then things will cost more as we will never get the economies of scale. If we don't then these things are silly.
