Further to your explanation, it should be noted that, until 1968, the only way to Hog Cay, now Paradise Island, was by way of boat.
Unlike the beaches on the island of New Providence, the beaches were never frequented by Bahamians until the very late 60's. Since then many vendors have pestered and harassed the tourists. If the vendors think that the tourists like having the vendors on the beach, they are sorely mistaken.
What is needed is a limited and well regulated group of vendors.
Our government has been **unable to control spending**, **unable to bring the Baha Mar matter**** to** a **quick** and happy **ending**, **unable to deal the oil spill by BEC**, **unable to stop the garbage landfill from burning**, **unable to stop the flow of Haitians** into the country (even though they have bought seven or eight large patrol vessels and spent $230 million), **unable to stop loosing over $100 million with Bahamasair**, **unable to explain the losses for Carnival**, **unable to explain the losses at BAMSI**, **unable to prevent unemployment from going up, unable to slow the crime** and the list goes on.
Now they have decided to permanently ruin any chance of recovery for financial services, our second most important industry and the best paying.
The government has worked hard to withhold information in everything that they do so business cannot count on certainty. They have abused Parliamentary Privilege in the last few days.
The government has proved that, when it suits them, they will release sensitive information that should not be disclosed.
In short they have proved to the world that The Bahamas is not a good place to be doing business.
According to the letter printed in the Punch last week the Save the Bays persons had been writing to you for months asking for an investigation and for months no answer. See page 52 of the 17th March Punch.
Want to give us an update on what you have done?????? More than talk we hope.
You see the good Lord guided Nygard to him so whatever he received came from......well you know the rest of the spin.
By the way rev. how are you helping the poor, the uneducated, the sick? Do live better than they do? How about your car, or your house oh ye follower of Christ.....you do know who Christ is?
Many of us feel that a number of the current government members are being allowed by the Speaker of the House to abuse their "privilege".
These rules were written when members were gentlemen and it was understood that a certain conduct would be followed. The current members need a 1000 page book of rules on what privilege is, as the last thing they are, are gentlemen.
