All phone calls in the Bahamas are monitered and recorded.anyway by the US, so will it make a difference if Huawei supplies the equipment? Except Trump is threatening to discontinue doing business with countries that use Huawei's equipment. wondering if he has shares in Cisco or Erricson. And Huawei's new fold phone will be very pricey at $2,800 and one of the first 5G phones. And it will be available a few months before any 5g networks become available. Trump's real fear is Huawei is not only the number 1 supplier of communications equipment, but the company is also about to dethrone Apple as the number1 cell phone manufacturer.

Why does the prime minister continue to bash web shops? He came to power and met these shops operating legally and as legitimate businesses. Furthermore these web shops contribute significant tax revenue to the government, hire many Bahamians, rent many properties and operate, for the most part, on the cutting edge of technology. It seems both ignorant and petty, anti-Bahamian even for the least of the country to diss Bahamians in this fashion. But one day another prime minister may say no more routes for Bahamas Fast Ferries because they are a monopoly or no more locations for Superwash and only then you realize how stupid and unfounded your statements are.

John says...

The concept or idea of giving Bahamians more ownership in ‘they tings’ is a great idea once it doesn’t become mismanaged and loaded with scandals. And it should go even beyond government buildings to acquiring shares in the ports of Nassau as well as Carnival and Disney ports and any other major investment that comes on stream. The government is already holding shares in Bith BTC and Aliv that are supposed to make available to the public. Some of those shares can also be place in this company, even these companies income statements are not too impressive at this time. Families cannot survive o comfortably of work income allow and any opportunity for additional income is welcome. Most Americans who live above the grade own shares in the stock market.

The article clearly mentioned the old City Market building on Market Street and NOT this one. You mix up like conch salad.

There are two strange or unusual events that happened on that night that may be related to this shooting and needs investigation.

John says...

Commissioner Anthony Ferguson should investigate this incident very carefully and very thoroughly.. He don’t want to have the alleged shooter sitting in prison while real evidence is left to disappear. This is very suspicious after the multiple shootings by occupants of a ‘Ford Explorer’ on the Montagu ramp just a week ago. And this incident was very successful in getting screaming headlines on every news media in the country and on social media.

‘A small group of prolific offenders killing up each other.’ This country dropped the all a long time ago by not getting to what was driving murder and violence in the country. And now it is reaching to the highest levels of society. But still the ‘WHY?’ May the soul of the departed rest i Rest In Peace.

John says...

If you check the number of yellow plates on the streets, something is patently suspicious, especially with the rentals. In some places 1 of every 4 cars is a rental (plate) but when you pass the rental car lots, they are still full of vehicles. This needs to be investigated. Of course if there was a need for additional rental cars, but did government get its revenue?

First of all legalizing or even decrimilizing marijuana cannot reverse the damage that was done by making the substance not only illegal, but a schedule 1 drug and using that law to send many young Black and Hispanic men to jail for long periods of time and giving them criminal records that handicapped them for life. At least not in a lifetime. Secondly a lot of marijuana available on the street today is not a natural substance, but a product that has been altered and genetically modified, probably with most of the medical benefits removed and its addictive properties enhanced along with other negative effects. Some people have become zombies who live only to smoke. At least decrimilizing marijuana will allow persons access to the natural plant and force much of the harmful and dangerous modified intentionally developed products off the market. China has developed and sells artificial marijuana which is actually bath salts and is very dangerous because not only does it cause users to hallucinate but cause medical issues that include complete kidney failure. And there are strains of marijuana being sold that are up to 100 times more potent than natural marijuana.
