Just an indication of how huge the corruption network is in the Bahamas, for a car to leave the ports in Florida, FOB to Nassau, pass shipping and inspection checks, CDU checks, Insurance and License Checks in the first instance, sold and a repeat of some of the above, but now add the "scrutiny" of the banking system, and you should have a picture.

I can only say ***WOW!***

The PTI Bahamas Inspection Program with "vindna Check Systems", a vehicle VIN Database Number Check and a Technical Inspection service before a vehicle is purchased or before a vehicle entered the country would catch this level of corruption at the point of entry into the country. But the powers that be; the former Minister of Finance (Peter Turnquest) said that "he sees no benefit" in such a service for the Bahamian People. ...boy!

Bahamians are of no consequence in the "fool's game" of Politics in the Bahamas. Footstools, ascending street tugs, and some may say criminals to the highest state office; the five year game of transforming once nobodies into an elite class while opening opportunities for themselves and not the people they should serve.

The poor, old and dying sit by in awe as wealth and access becomes a spectacle in this "fools game" just one more time with the hope of something different. But only the abuse where there is no accountability takes a new face in the "fool's game" of Bahamian Politics.

**The Fools Game of Bahamian Politics**

60 years of unfulfilled promises, yet the Bahamians rush to the Local Political game as if giving the same losing teams just one more chance will improve the opportunity. But the fools game has its own rules, and those rules are the rules left by Colonial Masters and an ignorant subject who has passively settled for cheap T-shirts, bragging rights, and a few dollars if lucky or a bottle of beer.

The Needs of The Country And its People Have Exceeded The Current Political Ideology. From 1967 - Now!

How Have We Progressed As a People? What Opportunities Have We Missed, Mistakes Made And How Do We Look Back at The Past 50 Years, And Move Forward To The Next 50 Years.

Can The Colonial Footing That Created The Old Bahamas Sustain a Future Bahamas? Fundamental Changes Are Needed For The Bahamas to Regain Its Once Held Position of Glory That Made Us All Hold Our Heads High and Proud To Be Called Bahamians?

We want our voting participation to influence our country's future development and benefits our economy, communities, environment, and educational systems.

Our Voice Maybe Small But Together Our Small Voices Can Be A Force That Influence Change.

Support your local Independent Candidate

**Sounding just like the days of the crack cocaine epidemic, "had a chance, now give someone else a chance" The 2 party "run" on the Bahamian People has to come to an end. We have had nothing but an industry of politicians (some ragtag street thugs) who waltz in with the fools game we call politics, excel themselves to a fictional status of elitism, entering a culture of systemic public service corruption and bamboozlement ...morphing into abusers and oppressors of the people who grace them with power.

This must come to an end; support your independent candidate.**

There is a propensity for this behaviour with this minister. He also has the right amount of shameless arrogance that reflects poorly on the country. There is nothing worse than an image of a shameless thug with little or no regard for the rules of honesty and fair governance.

Returning the funds, in itself, is a submission that a wrong was clearly committed and, as such, someone should be held responsible as a matter of principle. The view that The Bahamas is a corrupt country is widely believed, and this situation furthers that belief.

* The Minister remains at the centre of the Letter of Intent (LOI) and the Stella $727.364 million damages claim.
* The RTD Vanity Plate Printer $900,000.00 Budget Request
* Now his driver and personal assistant honorarium

The Bahamas don't need this level of questionable representation, and a cold face submission doesn't correct this bold and egregious act of dishonesty.

Rui Hao, is a native of China, however, he lives in **Amsterdam where he is a citizen.**

**It's challenging to listen to Cooper. At the same time, he continues to exist in the Bahamian Political Rahm and not explain the issue of A $25m public-private partnership (PPP) to establish a new Road Traffic Department headquarters on Tonique Williams Darling Highway in a PPPs arranged by the Christie Administration where there was no existing RFP for the same?**
