Mr. Minister - you’re about to kill the tourism business that the Bahamas relies on exclusively to sustain itself.
My family and I live in Florida, and we had plans to visit Nassau and Exuma this Summer as we often do. I’m sorry to say but if you think I’m going to the trouble of getting my family tested so that we can visit the Bahamas, I have news flash for you, Sir - it ain’t happenin’.
Not 20 minutes ago, my wife said let’s go the Mountains instead. DONE!!!
And you can bank on this - as long as Bahamas Immigration is going to require a negative COVID test certificate, we won’t be calling on the Bahamas.
What are you going to do about cruise lines?? You going to tell the cruise lines that every passenger that disembarks must have a negative COVID test certificate. Good luck. The cruise lines are already on life support and if you believe they’re going comply with your requirements, I have more news for you. They will pull the Bahamas from their itinerary quicker than you walk up the stairs of the House of Assembly. I wish and you and your country well.
I applaud Cat Islanders for the proactive steps they’ve taken to keep their residents healthy. I would just be careful about saying Cat Islanders don’t want any tourist. You can only say that for so long. You keep saying it as places reopen and travel resumes, your wish may just come true. I hope you’ll allow me and my family to visit your beautiful Island one day and meet the beautiful people of Cat Island.
Islandgal - what you mean you wanna know HOW??? Who owns the building??? The Bahamian Government. You figure the rest out......trust me you’ll get to the answer very quickly!
Send Bahamasair to pick up the students, fly them back home, quarantine and test them. Why is it that logical and smart people can’t figure this out?!?!
Tal did perfectly with his first comment! I thought I’d never hear straight English from him. Tal - you were doing great but then your follow-on comments went straight to hell in a hand basket!
Poor choice of words regarding the commissioner in public. How embarrassing! If you want to make a change then bring the man in and tell him that behind closed doors, and allow him to bow out gracefully.
