Was a patient in mens private ward once-------- Never again, No hot water, no bedside light, A/C blowing directly on bed, milk sour every morning, part time night nurse would probably find it difficult to blow her nose without guidance,bed sheets never changed, no internet (and guess why) It was disconnected because staff were watching to much porn .This came from a serving staff member. Yes there were several caring staff but overall a public disgrace.
One Eleuthera which is misnamed because everything that Shaun Ingraham does is in S Eleuthera has some agenda in this. Remember S Eleutherans whilst you blindly follow the herd that Mr Ingraham gets a good salary for doing his work unlike many of you.
vat, vat, vat. What about the raft of othr sneaky tax rises. If you bring a parcel in by air freight you now pa $10 customs handling tax, but then a brokerage fee to the people who actually do the papetwork. Then you pay duty and now pay VAT on the customs handling charge. Tax on tax. Tyre/ ac environmental tax. Environmental tax ????? Thrown on the dump like before.
Governments cannot and will never run private enterprises efficiently because of lack of experience and the knowledge that the government will fund all losses. Might be cheaper to invest the 65 millon and pay each worker a pension for life.
In its day slavery was accepted and even tribal chiefs were complicit in the trade. Of course we now find this belief of using slaves disgusting and quite rightly so. However the Bahamas is an independent nation and like old Fort quite rightly says ,citizens complain about the Privy Council, yet individuals accept honors from the Queen and maintain a Parliament . I maintain that the Privy Council does not understand Bahamian culture and should not be involved as the ultimate legal decision maker. Instead of complaining and blaming the Brits do something about it and get rid of the P. Council.
Common Banker, white collar workers and politicians rarely go to jail wheras the common man or poor Bahamians get put in Fox Hill at the drop of a hat.
URCA needs to look at Cable Bahamas which knowingly charges for internet service on one family island , charges for speeds of 70mbs and actually provides less than 6 mbs -that is when it works. Not speculation but technicians evaluation.
Lot of disinformation going around and I wonder whether these three students have been persuaded to become activists on behalf of adults. The south needs jobs and at least 150 are offer, access will be maintained for all and I wonder why the same fuss was not made about Princess Keys. Yes preserve the island as far as possible but I really wonder how many including these three students ever visited Lighthouse point before this and how much influence the very rich of Cotton Bay are exerting. Maybe One SOUTH Eleuthera could state their position ?
As a long serving teacher it is often obvious that parents that care often have children that do well. So many times have I seen boys in particular playing basketball at 11.30 pm when they have a BGCSE exam the next day. Extra curricular activities from Bands ,Sports,visiting speakers and "fun days" all deprive students of valuable learning time. Finally why did the previous deputy Director of Education go to such lengths to recruit Cuban teachers when the teaching talent existed here. Cuban teachers rarely integrate into the community, spend as little as possible,have no real reason to perform as they go home at the end of a contract with I phones, tools and other goodies whatever their results.
