Pretend to do something and hope the rains stop before people really start complaining. Then do the same next year.

Is the price per passnger mile based on a plane that has 300 people? Just wondering if a small plane with 4 people on would ahve to pay as well? If so it would be a lot higher.

Dawes says...

Thankyou, i and many boaters rely on that when we go out, and it hasnt worked in months. Now rely on US apps which are OK but not good enough

Dawes says...

Whilst this is a case for Fronting, does it not also show that the only hope many Bahamians have is to go this route. If the Foreign entity could own 40% then this would all be able to operate above board. As it is, only the welathy Bahamins would be able to partcipate in most activities as they would have the capital for the intial investment.

Dawes says...

We all know that the EIA will say what is needed to allow the project to occur. Soon we may as well all be eating farmed fish from abroad as we destroy anywhere that helps fish and other animals, in search of that almighty dollar. I agree that we as Bahamians need to make sure the politicians who approve know that this will be their legacy.

Dawes says...

Of course they failed. You should be able to get a pass that allows you to use Mutiple buses a day at a reasonable cost, rather then a new rate each time. They should be a set timetable so people can know when to get to the bus stop, and they should only be allowed to stop at the bus stop. Until then it will be just as it is now.

Dawes says...

Based on other projects that have been approved I am fairly sure the EIA is just a box ticking office, so that Government can claim there will be no environmental issues. Anyone can see a project such as this is not environmentally friendly. Hope the jobs will be worth it.

Dawes says...

We've had this sort of discussion before. You have Hamas which ruled in Gaza, whose sole aim is the destruction of Israel. They attacked and Israel attacked back. Have Israel gone too far, yes, however Hamas still has a number of their people hostage and until they get them back they are unlikely to stop. Why does Hamas not give them back? And i know for you Israel deserves to be gone and you will be happy with that outcome, however the only way that will happen is through their complete destruction and the death of millions.

Some of the world stands with Palestine and some with Israel, and then the rest who don't have a side. Just because you chose one doesn't mean the whole world does.

The area is a dump and has been for a while. But i also don't see the vendors make any effort in clearing it up. Most bars and restaurants around the island have to provide their own bathrooms and keep them clean. Not at Arawak (and Potters) and yet there is no effort form the vendors to keep it clean. Rather just expect Government to do it for them. As sickened as said it is also the fault of the police and the truck drivers. There is no way i should have to hear trucks from miles away and see them belching fumes all over the place. But even though its not allowed nothing happens. And as This is ours says they should never have allowed the area to grow past the port going east. Soo the dump will go from Arawak to Western Esplanade.
