Carnival's 'admeral' can't have been quoted accurately or if he was....

" he emphasised that the sewage discharges noted by the court-appointed monitor have been treated sewage which do not harm the environment."**Strong**

If this were so, surely it would be permitted and there would be no need to record such non-environmentally damaging discharges..........emmmmmm.....something doesn't sound right!

Why do I get the feeling that there are good environmental reasons why such discharges must be reported.......to protect the environment maybe?

Performance indicators??? Not in the Civil Service vocabulary.

Another "old" man with no new ideas. This country is doomed.

On this I agree with Mr. Moss. We must introduce a corporate tax. Perhaps it should not apply to any profits below a certain mark,say somewhere between three to five million.

At that starting point, most small Bahamain businesses would not be affected.

Woods Rodgers Walk did not exist in 1950. Water was right up to the back of the Royal Bank of Canada. The Showboat, and glassbottom boats used to tie up at the Prince George Hotel, which itself, was built into the harbour.

So recognizing that things have changed dratically in the last 70 years, a change in the zoning is long, long overdue.

First you need to open up the economy. In order to do that you need to liberalize immigration for investors and entrepreneurs.

Based on your parties track record, you won't agree to that, so give us details, yes details on what you would do.

Tremendous work, like in not stopping the slow Haitan sloops smuggling people into The Bahamas except when the US tells us about them?

Wonder how much extra we had to pay to have this done on an urgent basis.
Oh that's ok, the taxpayer picks up the tab for the couldn't care less lackadaisical employees of Bahamasair's maintenance.

And another thing, how come they were able to fix this so quickly once theysaw that the US was not going to let them fly?

One or more people need to be terminated for this fiasco. I would start with the Chairman.

A further problem is that if the work force is not competent the economy won't grow at a rate necessary to creat the number of new jobs required to employ 7,000 (less retiress) new persons coming into the job market.

This makes it very difficult to reduce the unemployment rate. It also creates a social and economic atmosphere for more crime.

Finally, a man of the cloth who is a thinker. This is refreshing.
