Thank God the Chinese took over the Bahamar project, otherwise it would have gone bankrupt during Covid. As a reminder, the project went bankrupt twice before it even opened its doors...
This reminds me of Escobar who was also involved in philanthropy in Colombia. Escobar spent millions developing some of Medellín's poorest neighborhoods. He built housing complexes, parks, football stadiums, hospitals, schools, and churches...a "Nice guy" as some would say
Without China there would be no Bahamar, no The Pointe, no British Colonial, no stadium, no Club Med, no Warwick, no funding at 2% when the Bahamas government bonds quote at 10% on international markets etc. They are the only major investor in the Bahamas except for the cruise lines. Would the Bahamas really be better off without China?
