Is it still the case that several prominent Bahamians still owe millions of dollars in unsecured loans and if so why should employees be forced to put their money in an institution that is run so badly.
So ,So true, as a retired teacher skills, hard work, dedication have little or no bearing on advancement. The vast majority of Principles are uneducated, petty and lazy,. Honesty is discouraged and the prospects for any meaningful advancement are based usually on who you know and how you vote.
What hope is there when there is no spending restraint at present and we all know there will be a flurry of useless promises and half baked schemes coming out prior to the election. Why not retire all these Ministry employees who have retired and then re-hired as consultants. What possible use is B Bethel at his age as one example
These plp politicians are lost on income balancing expenditure and are digging a deeper and deeper hole for the entire population. No matter how much extra income is generated this bunch will continue to spend, spend and spend.
Totally ludicrous how much money this man wastes but lets not forget the two trips ,first class air and hotels that were spent by the senate leader and her entourage to China. The average citizen with commonsense adjusts their spending when they realize their debt is growing wheras these idiots because of their constant desire for political popularity refuse to make the hard decisions and cut some jobs, cut events like carnival, shelve national insurance.Why for example is Baltron Bethel (80+) still employed, Why is Bahamasair not evaluated and downsized why is the there no accountability from school tuck shops to foreign trips by ministers. Who in their right mind proposes a Carnival with no structured budget in place before starting. If the Government doesn't do it they will be forced to with possible devaluation and it is the average Bahamian who will suffer.
A country run by men in denial who couldn't get drunk at a free bar. Look at the lies that the Pm has told the country regarding the opening of Baha Mar week after week when any person with three brain cells knows its a long time before it will or may open.
Having had a so called private room at PM H there is room to support his allegations. My room was dirty, a non working shower, sheets never changed, inedilble food with milk that was sour,a sink that leaked on to the floor, no bedside light and a night nurse who was unable to recognise an asthma attack. Added to which my letter to hospital management was completely ignored. Don't blame the nursing staff just incompetent management
Cannot believe that anyone would support the fact that these men were detained for three years without being charged or going to trail and have the gall to say that this is how a supposedly democratic and educated country behaves.
