There is no such thing as ease of doing business here. If it isn't inland revenue its the banks. Its non stop hassle to do anything correct. Must be plenty of people who feel it would be easier to just buy some shingles.
You have understand Birdie doesn't care about Bahamas, only the PLP. In their mind FNM made bad decisions and that has therefore allowed the PLP carte blanche to make as many bad decisions as possible and face no consequences.
They always do this. Pretend that due to some bad items all must be stopped. I guarantee they haven't stopped paying exorbitant rent to their friends. nor the road cleaning contracts etc. Nor Flights to get out on trips. One day the whole business community will need to come together and say to Government they won't do business with them until they pay their bills on time.
Just publish the full details of each offer. The one from the US, The one from the UK and the one we accepted from China. Let us all see who had the best deal.
