What idiot ordered these ambulances? Reminds me of Bahamasair’s new planes where first rows of seats have to be left vacant because of weight distribution and restrictions.

Is there any explanation for the massive drop off in number of Roman Catholics? Will the archbishop address this alarming shrinkage in members?

Starlink will solve all of Mrs. Carey’s internet woes.

Mr. Gibson has been a disaster for Long Island. Our roads are the worst they have been since they were paved over 30 years ago. Even a minimal but consistent patching of potholes (including when the FNM was in government) would have prevented this deplorable state we find ourselves in. Obviously he has more on his mind now, no way we want to ever see him run for office for Long Island again. The FNM better distance themselves from him and the sooner the better. We need far better representation.

Why is this even a question? For heavens sake don’t run Gibson in Long Island or anywhere else for that matter.

Dr. Minnis is absolutely right. The FNM opened the Arawak port deal to Bahamians, had over 12,000 Bahamian shareholders. Opened the cruise port to Bahamians, had over 3000 Bahamian shareholders. The PLP under the cloak of darkness in the BPL deal offer shares not to the general public but a handful of favored crony elite and foreigners and sell our birthright away for a song. All for me baby, they care not one whit about enriching Bahamians save for themselves.

You are rather ill informed. The cruise port has been and will be a resounding success as the vast majority of it’s income comes from a passenger facility fee which is paid regardless if the cruise visitor leaves the ship or not. These restaurants and retail businesses are for them as they say in New Orleans lagniappe. That being said a great service for Bahamians that the cruise port should provide is a shuttle service where Bahamians can safely park at a facility off Bay and they are shuttled to and from the port for free once they have validation from a restaurant or retail shop at the port.

Not a fan of Minnis but he is absolutely right. FNM opened the cruise port and Arawak port offerings to all Bahamians. The PLP sold a majority ownership in BPL for a song ( to apparently some foreign investors?) and restricted the offering to a select privileged few. They do not care a wit about the average Bahamian. Greedy, shady and corrupt.

This is rich coming from a bank that in fiscal 2023 earned $122million! Let that sink in …$122 million, yet there is a need to raise fees? Through first 2 quarters of 2024 net income is up 17% on the record net income of 2023 on pace for $132million in 2024! yet there is a need to increase fees? Give me a break, it is past time that the central bank rein in these outrageous fees.

Funny how Mr. Bowe says he speaks directly and candidly yet he fails again to update the Tribune on the share split he promised shareholders more than four years ago. Why does it take more than four years to execute a simple share split, why so many times he told us it is coming yet it has never arrived? His word holds very little value at this point, shareholders are tired of him crying wolf, tired of a litany of missed targets and failed promises. We are tired of spinning and excuses, of him not maximizing shareholder value and delivering poor results. Last year’s performance was pitiful. He does not seem to understand banking in the Bahamas. His tenure has been one of proselytizing about everything under the sun, especially matters that pertain little to FBB ( he owes shareholders a refund on his salary) as clearly we need a change of leadership at Fidelity Bank, someone who is truthful, and competent and who delivers for shareholders.
