This isn't rocket science, and The Bahamas is not unique to this scenario. Get someone on the team to research how other developed countries have tackled this issue successfully with the least amount of legal 'fall-out' and then see how (and if) that approach can be crafted to The Bahamas. It's called benchmarking.....
I hope that out of all this comes a clear and objective manner for persons to establish an NFP in this country. I know of several persons (including myself) that followed every single guideline and had all ducks aligned for the application process...but are still awaiting approval. Imagine the surprise when seeing how swiftly HK was able to get their certificate after 'louder questions' were raised.
I didn't see CAT 4 predictions, but it has been updated to CAT 3 based on the 11 AM update. Potentially passing over Grand Bahama and Abaco as CAT 3 before it gets to Florida.
If the free press misleads the public, then they should be held accountable. I'd rather all the facts be released, instead of opinions. Hopefully this is resolved swiftly so that the more important matter of fixing the power supply in this country can be the prime focus again.
This makes sense. Tons of tourist from the cruise ships flock to this area DAILY because it is the closest beach within walking distance. Tiki Bar has done some great upgrades, finally. I hope these plans are followed through on. This past year I have had numerous friends visit Nassau via a cruise, and they all seemed to end up at Junkanoo Beach (because all they wanted to do was enjoy the water and not feel bombarded by vendors).
The idea has some good reasoning to it, but perhaps the execution should be reconsidered. Maybe this is a tool that should be used in the schools to teach children. Releasing it with intentions to target the masses (children and adults) seems like you're attempting to delegitimize the importance of understanding the budget process. These comedians have a brand of 'silly-funny' and 'crazy-funny' and not necessarily 'humour-with-a-purpose'. If we really want to deliver some type of 'edutainment' then I hope educators are also involved in this process (i.e., people who have some experience with educating and/or producing educational materials).

'edutainment' is not a word.
I don't like it (personal opinion).
The idea has some good reasoning to it, but perhaps the execution should be reconsidered. Maybe this is a tool that should be used in the schools to teach children. Releasing it with intentions to target the masses (children and adults) seems like you're attempting to delegitimize the importance of understanding the budget process.
