Something has to be done to help person's working in the tourism industry. With the hotels not open, employees are faced with absolutely nothing to look forward too. No jobs, no money, children to feed. Bill's to pay. The banks still looking for us to pay Bill's, light bill very high, We need help, Food assistance cant stop now and the government funding cant stop now. We need the government to help us. Please continue to try to help us, we need you more than ever now
This is of great concern for my Bahamian people, yes this programme donated to thousands of people and it ran for a good length of time, and I am sure Bahmians were greatful. But something still has to be done, thousands of people are still hurting and out of jobs. I know the government wants to open the country next month, but there will still be thousands of persons unemployed. That is mainly the persons in the tourism sector, the country is opening but the hotels refuse to open. Help is still needed, just as much as the first day the help was started. Social service is not going to be the answer, they turn people away. They want to give persons one coupon and than say we will call you back and they won't ever call
Once your name goes in their system to say you got a coupon before that' is it. People cant live of one coupon and that's it. They dont even give the coupon on a monthly basis. And you have to practically beg for it What's gonna happen to your fellow bahamian. No food, no water, no clothing, no job, no government funding. Continue to help your people. We need you This is the time for the people
