For **3 decades**the mountain of complaints generated by exiting vacationers was there not being enough for tourists to do in Nassau.
Before we double down on stupid with even more environmentally unfriendly cruise ships, and many thousands more complaining tourists, we need to figure out how to upgrade our product!
It would be suicide as a resort destination to bring in more tourists than we can adequately entertain. What is the plan to clean up Bay Street east of East Street to PI bridge & popular tourist stops like over the hill areas? What will be done about the notoriously disgusting well documented "F-" frontline jetski, hair braiders, souvenir hawkers, and hundreds of ignorant thieving taxi cab drivers?
People travel to experience different cultures. What is the plan to greatly improve nightlife, native shows, and overall cultural tourism experiences?
Just bringing in more tourists without providing the proper infrastructure to deal with them is a no-brainer sure recipe for failure, and the cruise industry will absolutely no problem throwing the Bahamas under the bus to make themselves look good!
The Bahamas could benefit tremendously from the basic concept of homeporting cruises. However, on the flip side, it could easily become a huge disaster if not managed properly.
I strongly suggest we tread slowly in this direction until we put things in place to deal with a massive inflow of tourists.
(CNN) - Denmark, Iceland, and Norway have suspended the use of the Oxford-AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccine while the European Union's medicines regulator investigates whether the shot could be linked to a number of reports of blood clots.
Why is it Archbishop Patrick Pinder and other so-called "religious leaders" who wouldn't step up to condemn the systemic corruption or nepotism that has destroyed our country and people expect us to trust them?
Politicians and religious leaders are the reason the world is in a mess today!
This is heartbreaking! People should not have to repeatedly beg the government for assistance.
Director of Labour John Pinder estimate last month that the jobless rate is around 40 percent is about 20% too low. The jobless rate is more like 60%!
Most countries are purging themselves of low-skill blue-collar ex-pats. The Bahamas definitely needs to follow this practice. There was never a reason, and we simply cannot afford to have ex-pat gardeners and domestic workers at this time.
Nobody can identify any Haitian owned businesses that employs a single Bahamian, why the hell would we be stupid enough to give Haitians political power?
Our country has been stuck on stupid for so long, it's now normal for so called "intelligent" people to accept the dumbest ideas out there!
