So CCA will now return to the site and complete the job according to Chinese standards of excellence!! I doubt that will satisfy a brand like Hyatt that has a worldwide reputation to protect. Looks to me as if all the brands will depart not wanting to be associated with an inferior product. We are looking then at a new owner coming in. Then what? Where will the bookings come from? There has been so much bad publicity surrounding this project that it is going to be very difficult to persuade American travel agents to risk their reputation by sending customers to a resort where, in all probability, the finishing is not going to be up to scratch. I wouldn't get too excited about this announcement - there is a long road ahead before the Beijing Palace opens up in any meaningful way.
Bran and the DNA allowed this bunch of incompetents to take office. It's time for him to pack it in and join a single opposition. Hopefully, all those who wasted their vote by voting DNA last time round will see sense this time.
Nicole, from this piece of writing it is clear to see the exasperation that you and many young Bahamians feel with regards to the corruption and neglect perpetrated on this country by a political elite that cares not one jot about the plight of its people. Today's news that an ageing and clueless Perry Christie is determined to lead the PLP into the next election must fill all forward thinking and educated Bahamians with sadness and despair. Bahamians do need to stand up for themselves - that they don't is perhaps down to conditioning rather that fear. The reality is that because of poor education many Bahamians cannot conceive of anything better - they honestly believe that this is their lot. How sad! But maybe, just maybe, there will be enough first time voters come May 2017 who will say "We have had it with these geriatric, power hungry and greedy politicians - we are NOT going to give you our vote." This is my hope and it's a hope we all need to cling to in the (please God) closing days of this utterly dreadful administration.
What in the world does PGC think he has to offer the Bahamas? He should have retired long time ago. Here is a man who is totally consumed by the trappings of power and a determination to create a meaningful legacy. Robert Mugabe has the same mindset and he is still desperately clinging to power at age 91. Anyways, it will all become irrelevant come May 2017. The PLP is a busted flush.
Inspired by Robert Mugabe perhaps PGC thinks he can hang on to the trappings of power for another 20 years! Just keep on appointing stalwart councilors, keep in with the Chinese and Web Shop boys, maintain a healthy slush fund for the buying of thousands of microwaves and yellow t-shirts around election time and victory is assured, right?

“We need to remain focused,” said Bradley Kemp, an officer for logistics within the PLP. “We’re trying to build a first world country.
Sorry but you can't build a first world country using a third world mentality.
