Good letter, apart from the end. If PLP win you will feel exactly the same in 5 years. We really need to try other parties and or independents as these two parties have almost brought us to our knees.
Government doesn't understand how business operates, in order for them to pay their bills and make a profit they need the people they have entered into contracts with to pay on time. yet again it appears our Government has not done that. Not only that they need to know how long the contract will go on for, so of course they want to know if it is going to be extended. So this company does the only thing left and go to the press to say we are turning off the water on X date. Not sure if the Government is aware but Suez bought GE water in 2017 for $3.4 billion, Suez is the parent company of Aqua designs, so losing Bahamas may be unfortunate but not life changing for the company. Whilst not having water is life changing for those Bahamians living there.

The letter writer is correct, as long as we have all paid our bills to WSC. If we haven't that might explain why they are unable to pay their bill.

What is new about the PLP this time round. It's still pretty much being run by the same people as before.
