So let me see if I get this right. They applied to the Police in Miami to demonstrate but don't want to apply to the Bahamian Police to demonstrate. Then they talk about their rights. They threaten to knock down the shanty town and give the people 15 minutes to leave not knowing the proper procedures then claim Police harassment. They rent 20 rooms at BahaMar to gain access to the caricom leaders to let them know that Brave doesn't represent us. But claim their constitutional rights were violated. Nothing they say or do makes sense yet ignorant people are falling for their stupid games. They are domestic terrorists and should be treated as such.
The problem is that governments all around the world should not micromanage government corporations. Politicians are not good business people. There are few public corporations anywhere in the world that are profitable or operating efficiently. The best long-term solution is to put them all in a position to be privatized and then do it as soon as possible. BPL needs to break up into two companies: generation and distribution. It should be in a ratio like BTC of 49%,49%, and 2%. The government historically bail out State Owned Enterprises at around $400 million annually. This is money that could have been used for more productive purposes. Instead; bad management, political meddling, inefficiency and other negatives are rewarded. This has to stop.
Tourists travel around the world to see different food, festivals, cultures and things unique to that place. It is ridiculous to bring what they have at home over here. Do you really think that people will come here to see a Broadway show? Bahamian culture is dying because we do not accept it and then develop a dislike for it. Everywhere you go in the country, you hear everyone else music but not our own. Bahamians are ashamed to be Bahamian and it will only get worst.
First, we need to map out what is public and what is private. Then, we need to map out the access points. Then we need to identify and create adequate parking. This needs to be done on every island in the country.
This is a great plan. It is a win, win for all. The money wasted on North Abaco harbour should have been placed on expanding Marsh Harbour. Now is the time to get it right.
Here we go again and again. More title issues that take years to resolve. This is the number one thing holding this country back. The solution is so simple - a blockchain land registry.
I am shocked by this article. The reporter interviewed a few people and came to the headline conclusion. I am even more shocked at the comments afterwards. What planet are you people from? How could people of colour still choose to be in bondage? Where is your sense of identity? Where is your sense of self-esteem? Where is your sense of true patriotism? Where is your sense of being truly independent? I hope that all of the remaining Caribbean countries remove the monarchy at the same time. Anything less is beyond ridiculous and amounts to a looser mentality. Removing the monarchy does not mean that we must leave the Commonwealth. It means that we are finally removing the last symbols of colonialism. We have done well as an independent country and will continue to do well as a Republic. Every country in the world including Great Britain has social and economical problems so that is a terrible excuse. To make the world mark the manner of our bearing then we must be truly independent. This is not the time for politics on this issue. Let's move - "Forward, Upward, Onward and Together. We have God on our side so have no fear.
