Hutchison had to be taken out of the picture. Nothing good was going to happen as long as they were involved.
Government did the right thing. The cost of doing nothing was a collapse of the Grand Bahamian economy and that would cost the Country a great deal more than $65 million.

We need to focus more on the overnight visitor. The cruise ship industry is too much of a burden on our environment and infrastructure, even if we trebled the revenue generated from them.

It will be interesting to see if 15 megawatts is realistic. Even that sounds ambitious.
Good luck though, hope you achieve it.

The RBDF is a joke. No one takes them seriously because they don't take their job seriously.

We need a real RBDF, not these hacks.

We need a long range solution. No stop gap measure. It takes years to train and get proper qualified inspectors.

We should hire some foreign inspectors for the next 5 to 10 years to get things under control.

*He encouraged the government to consider the same path of action the PLP considered during the former Christie administration's term in office.*
