In Florida the average cost is $125 per square foot so our price is not that bad, especially when you consider our homes are built more sturdy then in the US. Note i have seen some websites saying as low as $90 and others up to starting of $150. Either way i am sure costs will be going up once the supply chain takes into account the Trump Tariffs and the massive building that needs to happen in LA after the fires.
Ha ha ha for years we have heard about how taking over our skies will give us plenty money. now we will all have to pay plenty extra to fly to our islands. Good job PLP/FNM as always doing foolishness, but hey it ain't you that will be affected.
Lol getting congratulations for stopping something that you were the one who implemented. All this shows is that those writing the law have no idea its implications and when they do they have to change it.
Other countries don't have leaders who travel with nothing to show. We are more in debt now then ever, we can't pay students what we promised and plenty other people and firms, but hey lets take 30 of us to travel to the other side of the world for a fun trip.
Of course they won't write that off. If you are being told that you owe $350 million you will get whatever money you can. And even if you don't owe (which they say they don't) you would not write this off until the court has decided. Only people who work for Government and do not understand that you can't just expect taxpayers to continue to fund you would not understand this. This is one of the basic principles of doing business.
So we can get eggs at $3.79 from another country, doesn't that meant eh $15 million golden yoke project is another waste of money. Or are we going to be forced to spend more when we buy from them?
These projects are always transformational, and then 10 years down the line you realize nothing much has changed for the Bahamians living there, just another area they can't go to.

Everyone knows that the golden yolk plan was not to increase production of eggs greatly. It was just another way to line certain peoples pockets
