It doesn't really matter how you categorize an item unless you want to be exact, which is silly. Just pick something close, like nuts, and move on. Exactness only counts if you are bringing back a container of something. Often I just pick household items for my Walmart receipt and put the value of the receipt as the total. No need to breakdown every item on the receipt unless you want to capture the different percentages.
It doesn't matter if you buy anything or not, as a Bahamian you still have to complete an electronic form in order to gain entry into the country. Cheaper to do a huge shop as you still have to wait in line behind everyone, even if you only have a briefcase and no luggage.
This will be an utter disaster for any country sending in troops. The gangs of Haiti will not tolerate it and will destroy any opposing force. This war with the outside will only unite many of the gangs together in order to repel the enemy. I hope our boys are issued chain mail as well as bullet proof vests because they are going to be assaulted with both bullets and cutlass.
Why exactly are we putting out fires in shanty towns? Isn't the idea to remove shanty towns? If God, in all his wisdom, has allowed a fire to break out then who are we to stop it. It will burn out in accordance with His plans. We should not interfere.
Hey Birdie, this is a non-issue. The fact that passports go missing is not as important as the idea that this probably also happened while the FNM was in power. So if it has happened before under a different administration then there is nothing to be concerned about.
It is a noble objective. However, we need to now hear about the plan for increasing the amount of rooms available for guests. Last we heard was that most hotels were at capacity and THEN they went after local AirBnB business and making it difficult/unattractive for them to operate, which I imagine cause many to leave the market. Not sure if gov't is aware of the correlation between air lift and room capacity.
BPL is better than some in the region. holy crap! We're among the best of the worst. Yay us???
I also have to assume that everyone else in the region also cancelled their fuel hedging program? Morons do like to stick together so maybe it was a WhatsApp group decision. I just wonder what the thinking was. Let's stick it to the man... I mean consumer?

So government shouldn't be targeting AirBnB's for similar taxes to hotels but without any of the benefits?
