Your grasp on reality is pretty tenuous. What on earth would she want with a bunch of rocks in the middle of the ocean?

Funny how they don't warn you about the scam the Government of the Bahamas is running? You know the one: you pay VAT and they give you a service.

No. They don't want cheap competition. They either run the business for themselves or they want rents so high that the net profit potential is almost zero. They don't want YOU to compete with THEM.

Yes, because the Government of the Bahamas has proven at every turn how well it looks after taxpayer funds and how everything it touches turns to gold. Your solution is about as sensible as increasing the dosage to a heroin junkie. Come to think of it, it might work. They might OD, die and get off our backs.

They will simply wrap the buildings in advertising wrap which costs next to nothing and that will be that. No more eyesore. But no progress either. Taxation is almost never the answer. Because civil servants who make laws are far stupider than businessmen who need to get round them.

Yes, because the owners of those properties have been waiting for decades and foregoing income generation from them all this time, because they are "not on the same page". I have never heard anything more stupid in my life. The reason they are derelict is because there is no demand for retail/office or any other kind of space. That is because the cruise boat tourists spend an average of $60. Who is going to invest millions in their properties if they can't then rent them out at a profit? No one.
Mrs Jibrilu should know that the owners of those properties could buy the Government of the Bahamas 10 times over. It is not money they lack. It is a reason to spend it.

The solution has always been there and it is real simple. But no government will ever implement it, because they care much more about votes than the price of electricity: run a cable to Miami and buy it @ 8c or less. That's it. Problem solved. Hard one, was it not?

You don't get it Mr. Johnson. It is precisely because there is no one to pay off and no possibility of corruption that they have to bring in legislation to make it not only possible, but mandatory. You not from around here, are you?

"Miller: Hill Deserved To Be Fired From Bpl".....but you did not?

I think very few people here understand how companies and corporations work. The majority owner of BPL is the Government of the Bahamas. Just as in any private business, when the owner gives an instruction to an employee, it has to be carried out, whatever the employee might think about it. The Board checked Gibson's instructions with Brave. They left all the documentation & correspondence in place, to ensure transparency. That is about all that they could have done. I suppose they could have resigned. But that would have left them open to claims of political interference and wide open to all kinds of retribution had the PLP won. In attacking the management for carrying out a lawful instruction from the business owner (however morally reprehensible), people are just missing the point. The only responsibility here lies with Gibson and Davis. Davis cannot escape at least political responsibility, if not criminal. He is finished.
