LOL. You ChiCom trolls certainly are masters at disseminating misinformation and disinformation for consumption by weak minds. You're even better at it than the US fake news media.

Enjoy your white rice while forgiving me for being partial to my crab & rice.

And do let us know when you believe it would be a good time to un-peg our Bahamian dollar from the US dollar and hitch it to the Chinese Yuan. I guess you believe that should immediately follow replacing all of our tourists from the US with tourists from Communist China. I am sure your proposals on achieving all of this would be most welcomed by the likes of Fwreddy Boy Mitchell and Stumpy Davis.

Brace yourselves land owners ....... the stealing of your land is about to begin and the likes of Snake's wife (Sharon Wilson), Snake's daughter (Sharlyn Smith), David Morley (son of John Morley, deceased), Andrew O'Brien, and others like them are gleeful at the prospects.

LMAO. IslandWarrior is clearly running for an associate membership in the politburo in Beijing. His station posting at the Chinese Embassy in The Bahamas must not pay enough.

Biting the hand of our neighbour to the north that feeds our people in so many ways is never a wise thing to do as slimy Fwreddy Boy is now learning the hard way.

And IslandWarrior you had better be a yellow man because the politburo is not open to any kind of membership by persons of any other colour.

Christine Gravelle, the New Jersey bankruptcy court judge responsible for this latest miscarriage of justice in the Baha Mar debacle, is well known to be a woke democrat through and through. Just the kind of judge the ChiComs were hoping to find to orchestrate more inordinate delay.

This most absurd and ridiculous ruling by CJ Winder only serves to exacerbate the severity of the grave injustices this Jamaican national, Matthew Sewell, has had to endure because of the many failings of our legal system.

CJ Winder has wrongly ignored and defied this man's fundamental right to receive from government the $2 million that he had earlier been awarded by the court together with interest thereon for the delay in making payment of the award. CJ Winder has proven time and time again that his rulings in cases involving the government are tainted by his predisposition not to be seen to be doing anything the government does not wish for him to do.

If at all procedurally possible, this latest nonsensical ruling by Winder should be appealed all the way to the Privy Council in the UK with the Highest Court in Jamaica filing an amicus curiae brief in the matter to point out the legal absurdity of Winder's ruling.

Really can't help but wonder if CIBC is upset that the Central Bank is allowing CB to pay whopping dividends to its shareholders from the net interest income it earns from its very significant investments in short-term debt instruments issued by the Bahamian government while at the same time not extending the same privilege to CIBC and its upstream shareholders because of external reserve concerns.

No doubt the chief honchos in the Toronto executive suites of cibc, rbc and BNS are beginning to feel used and abused by corrupt successive Bahamian governments that seem to reject any and all efforts to rein in incessant waste, fraud and abuse. And PM Davis as minister of finance may be the final straw that breaks the camel's back. Not good!!

According to Open AI:

*Of the last sayings of Christ on the cross, none is more important or more poignant than, “It is finished.” Found only in the Gospel of John, the Greek word translated “it is finished” is **tetelestai**, an accounting term that means “paid in full.” When Jesus uttered those words, He was declaring the debt owed to His Father was wiped away completely and forever. Not that Jesus wiped away any debt that He owed to the Father; rather, Jesus eliminated the debt owed by mankind—the debt of sin.*

The Bahamas has since created many new debts that need to be eliminated, but I suspect you @tetelestai know that more than most.

Sorry my friend, but that tired 'ole lame excuse of the Bahamas being a victim of its geographical features and proximity to the US just doesn't cut it any more.

We as a nation and a people have not done our part to protect our own interests and have allowed corruption to run rampant throughout our government, promoted in large part by our dysfunctional political system and its negative knock-on effects on our education system, law enforcement, legal system, and so on.

Suggest you avoid hinting to the current Trump administration that perhaps the easiest way to protect US citizens from all that we have allowed to happen in our country is to shutdown travel by sea and air between our two nations. This of course would be supplemented by US air force and naval bases being coercively established on certain of our islands that are more strategically important to serving the national security interests of the US.

One thing is for sure, one way or the other the US government will not be allowing another Cuba to develop on its door step. You can take that to the bank!

Sorry my friend, the US no doubt has hard first hand evidence of what has been going on here and therefore has no need to rely on reports of others. Do not under-estimate the extent to which the US intelligence apparatus long ago penetrated even the inner-most sanctums of the cruel and evil communist regime in Cuba. Frankly, it would not surprise me at all if our corrupt government officials were unwittingly dealing with certain US 'friendly sources' while negotiating the terms of our country's participation in this modern day slave trade scheme.

And keep in mind too that millions of dollars paid out of our public treasury over many years for our country's participation in this cross-border human trafficking scheme have not been accounted for and most certainly did not get pocketed by the Cuban medical workers and teachers sent to our country. That begs a lot of questions!
