nice ambulance for photos but when they put you in it, where are they going to take you and what care will you get there? is there a hospital with trauma center at Mayaguana?
i don't see any control towers at the airports mentioned, so its up to the pilots i guess to pay attention. even in america with all their technology, they have close calls all the time.
its hard to understand how increased visitor arrivals, which is supppsed to be our bread and butter, is not translating into more money which would allow some of these arreaes to be settled. bottom line in all of this seems to be that we are living beyond our means.
here we go again. still trying to put a square peg into a round hole. Freeport is not designed for tourism. need to try something else. in my view this is just throwing good money after bad.
Rest assured they will regulate this to ensure it looks just like a taxi and there will be no benefit. we will continue to be among those lesser developed countries where you can't identify a taxi or book one.
they will have to tread carefully with this. Trump administration not too concerned about sovereignty talk. see the play with management of the Panama canal. the era of gun boat diplomacy is in play now.
The issue here is there was sufficient evidence to charge Pinder. in our system of government, that is enough to expect he would step aside so he is not a distraction. a cloud of suspicion will follow him the rest of his life even if absolved of any wrongdoing because you can always win a case on technicalities.
