Do you know most countries around the world that discover rich natural resources including oil and diamonds are steeped in corruption and buried in debt? Or these is civil unrest and even civil war. The powerful bigger countries come in and destabilize the country and cart away all the wealth. Or the make it so difficult for the country to mine and sell its resources the country goes broke trying to do so. Get a list of all the countries with collapsed economies and research them. Then wonder why Russia has an interest in the Caribbean again. Even that super power nation cannot sell its oil and other products freely. If oil was drilled in the Bahamas in commercial quantities every Bahamian would disappear.
@mudder-Tal-sic.. stop being a jacka$$ all your life. The same countries that were supposed to be regulating and controlling the banking system dismantled our offshore banking and stole our customers long before any web shop was licensed. Like a parrot that cusses you singing a sad song no one wants to hear.
The biggest problem Aliv faces is keeping customers. Many fall for their 'bait and trap' strategy with the new, low priced phones loaded wtih minutes and data. but after using aliv or a few weeks many feel it is too expensive and the service is not comparable to BTC. There is dis dficulty reaching some numbers from an Aliv phone
yes there is room for more studies. Ther are at least 1000, yes one thousAND different strains of marijuana on the simple scale. Hundreds more if you really want to grade. persons try to grow weed that is more potent, less bulky, less odor, requiring less sunlight to grow,even some that disappears when the cops show up. and of course the more the weed is varied the less medical benefits it may have. But the set what grow up in Jamaica Blue mountainis is da real culture weed.
‘Retired ‘Bishop Hall’s presence on the commission unsettled many persons who attended the forum most of whom assumed that as a religious figure his mind would be set against marijuana legalization. Child Please. Y’all carrying on like the man rolls up a joint in da place and says “let us smoke(puff, puff pass) instead of ‘come let us pray! How else is the church and the religious sector to make informed decisions unless they become informed. Back in the days when Bishop Hall was a young boy and he attended a children’s party his parents didn’t worry too much about him or any other child eating too much cake or candy. Because when they wake up the next morning they would be greeted by the smell of cerasee (bitters) And that would bring up all the excess cake and candy that you ate the night before. And if you didn’t get your appetite back by supper time you had to swallow a few slices of aloes (alvis). That got rid of all the worms you fed with the excess cake and ice cream. Marijuana has been assaulted and ravaged. And if it becomes legal and you need use of it try grow your own. Until then let us pray and tithe faithfully.
But there has to be some level of tolerance. If one had the power to tell people to stop dying then there would be no need for grave yards. Until then a place has to be found to bury them who decide to die (or be killed in this town). People were burning coal in the South West New Providence even before any one could afford a gas stove. Now they are being told they have to stop. Persons who had animal farms for generations are forced out of busines but we all still need food to eat.
Any police commissioner who has been in charge of a police force that has committed so many killings in such a short span of time should he, himself be investigated for murder. Go in Nassau Village and ask how many young men are in custody at this very moment, just for happening to be living in that area, being held beyond the 48 hour period and not being released or being allowed to have family members visit them. The country has stepped backwards 20 years!
