I think we can cut Suh Eddie a 'lil' slack because he did make a valid point in a statement saying that he hopes this has not just become top priority since Nygard's alleged contribution. Was this even outlined in the national plan/manifesto/agenda ?

agreed Tal, we shall also hoist the jolly roger just as a reminder of where we come from.

If this is true, then this will determine the exact state of our country.

1,000 jobs ? lets see how many Bahamians make up this number. Then we can talk about jobs.

JohnDoes says...

and yet what does this have to do with the high rate of unemployment & crime in the bahamas? nothing at all. There are far bigger problems not being addressed than to spend time focusing on these set of human beings who are not even thinking about us in the first place.

JohnDoes says...

Yep and some forget that these same government agencies who are supposed to be helping the people are the one's who are back burning the people. We are treated like immigrants in our own country while the foreigner invests and lives a life we citizens could only dream about.

Ahh so they rather shut down the potters cay vendors who are actually providing some bahamian delicacies to the tourists and people, rather than shutting down those webshops I see. The enforcement is really and truly 'selective' rather than responsive and reactive. We had a whole day off from business to conduct the so called 'gambling referendum' and spent $1million+, yet those pirating businesses continue to thrive. Isnt it appalling that the voice of the people is yet to be heard? It seems that they do anything for media appeal but is the problem that we citizens face really being solved?

Truly an embarrassment for the FNM. These new leaders are something else, and something that is very hard to get used to. We need Papa back!

Even though there is room for debate when it comes to Nygard and his involvement with the stem cell research. Nygard is an alienated Bahamian and should not be looked down upon just because he is successful in his own business and decides to contribute to various governmental departments and/or Bahamian events. If you ask me Nygard has made generous contributions, A lot of what we don't see from majority of those 'wealthy' Lyford Cay residents. He is simply securing his retirement here, by giving back to the Bahamas especially in the form of events that we so desperately need like many mentioned in this article. Nygard's contribution is not a crime but simply help that many do not offer.
