Or is it possible there is no buyer yet, as no one wants to purchase an unfinished resort -- much less one done as badly as CCA has done? It's possible this finishing of the resort is something CEXIM realises it must do before it can sell. And with the Chinese workers all sent off to Panama now -- who will do the work?
Is this PGC's 10,000 job promise just before the election? Will there actually be Bahamian workers completing the resort?
Way too many unanswered questions -- and as usual, the PLP government isn't offering any answers.
birdie, doom and gloom is still here, no matter how PGC spins it. This announcement comes just as Moody's downgrades the Bahamas yet again. So, pull off your delusional PLP rose coloured classes and see what's really happening here instead of being just one more sheep being led to slaughter.
"Under their Chapter 11 efforts, our people had little prospect of being paid anything. Under this agreement,"
Surely Mr. Christie doesn't think the Bahamian people are that stupid. He's still lying to us!
If Chapter 11 had been allowed to proceed without Christie and Maynard-Gibson howling about sovereignty, Baha Mar would have long been open and this whole mess would have been avoided.
I wonder which new master the PLP government will serve? Perhaps part of the deal is that they will finance the election for the PLP. Will we ever know the full details?
I can only hope we haven't sold out yet again to the Chinese with their carpet bags. I am sensing yet another "nation for sale" deal coming up with ties to organized crime.
I do wish some of the articles would contain more details. For example, the locally transmitted cases -- were these the result of contact with the 2 known travel-related cases, or are we to assume these are unrelated and in fact, locally contracted? It's a very important clarification in determining risk. Will we get further details?
This would have been a much better article with more detail. Where did the plane come from? How many people aboard? Bahamian plane? Bahamian pilot? With that much cocaine, it's unlikely this was the final stop -- where was the cocaine bound?
Kudos to our police and RBDF who have lately gotten a fair amount of drugs off the streets. Now I wish we could do the same for guns.
Licks, it's you who needs to sit this one out until you get a basic understanding about how things REALLY work.
Yes, they walked away. It was cheaper and less hassle than dealing with the union. And Sandals could easily do the same thing. Wonder how Sandals would do in Cuba once things open up to US visitors? They don't need us -- we need them! Take those silly arrogant rose-coloured glasses off and see the big picture!

Rollins has little man syndrome. He should just get on with whatever it is he's doing and not worry about what LBT is doing. What a baby!
