So having basically stolen the investment from Freeport they turn around and say Freeport isn't working and that they should take over.

They have no opening in sight because the China Export Bank won't write of $1 Billion.
Scotia has written off $200 million and the ball is in the Chinese court.

The Government has turned what was already a mess into a quagmire that will take a considerable amount of time to get out of.

We would have been much better off if the government had stayed out of it.

Economist says...

Yes, but will they all be Chinese workers or will Bahamians get the lion's share?

Babak is a dark cloud over the Port Area.

Minister Mitchel, this is a man that has done more harm to this Country than anybody you have kicked out so far.

Sure the Memories manager was rude and hurt some feelings. Babak got many Bahamians to invest in his loosing businesses and they have lost it all. Babak has hurt thousands of Bahamians.

So Minister, Babak is truly "undesirable".
