Ingraham's and Christies lack of planning and lack of proper leadership have put us where we are today. In the wake of every single hurricane there is mass confusion in the ranks of government employees. Plane loads of supplies being denied entry because of confusion on duties. Bahamas Air charging $75 because of a lack of training on disaster response. The previous governments are a complete failure and Minnis has a golden opportunity here. Slow start? ok. but moving forward if Minnis can orchestrate an orderly recovery with much improved ease of doing business, zero confusion and hassle to get building supplies in, real help from the government. People will forget the slow start, but sadly, My prediction is that Minnis and his gang will bungle along and we Bahamas gov gonna be just as frigged up as before
I hate to be skeptical, but I am not going to believe the words of government until I see it in action. And it must be seen over and over again. Basically, barges of materials need to be allowed to sail from departure port to recipient with no government intervention. No stopping in West End ''to clear customs" they need to open the borders basically. Some will say that is going too far. In my 50+ years I have heard government make hundreds of promises and have witnessed precious few actual follow throughs. My prediction is that there will be mass frustration by the civilian population, the government will not let go of control. The local government boards will still be limited to naming streets in their town while Nassau decides the rest. Prove me wrong Minnis, prove me wrong. Please prove me wrong.
all these years, administration after administration and they still don't know where the money comes from for the maintenance of a busy airport like Marsh Harbour? LTIA is a new airport, how can they have spent that money with no maintenance plan moving forward? Ineptitude, the answer is ineptitude.
I'm glad he has come to his senses, it's not a secret that everyone wants to see real change and not just promises. Simply don't understand our various governments failing on almost every front.
