BPL seems to be intent on shutting down country ex for Nassau.. maybe a bit much? no need to make the whole event more unbearable than it has to be i wud think.... anyway....

unfortunately, island living in the southern Bahamas has always been difficult and will likely continue to be so r get worse. there is nothing gov't can do about it, its the history of the place and lack of resources. those folks will not leave permanently because its their home.. we can all understand that.. i would do the same in similar circumstances... sad situation..

Davis is lukewarm. never takes a position on anything til he knows the prevailing opinion .... unfit to lead..

'can't afford to rest on their laurels'. with impressive consistency in maintaining the D average, the question is, what laurels does he refer too?

there is ample competition in the local banking industry but clearly we consumers are not seeing the benefits suggesting collusion between the banks to set fees. Therefore we need gov't oversight including laws to prevent anti-competitive behaviour.

the onerous rules imposed by the imperialists are nothing less than modern day colonialism and intended to economically cripple small, 3rd world countries so they remain 3rd world and dependant on 1st world handouts that come with strings attached. its utter BS and we can't do much, if anything, about it.

government in the Bahamas is too big.. electricity company, airline, bank of bahamas, water works, tv and radio, etc., the level of funding required far exceeds gov't revenue given that everything they own needs support as they are all failures... need more private sector and less state control, otherwise, days of IMF control will keep getting closer...

its always the same story with us bahamians, do something to make things better as long as you dont change anything... what messed up thinking...

i only have two concerns.. will these folks who were fleeced, expect gov't to reimburse them like the failed insurance company of some years ago? was this activity legal? if not, where is the Attorney General's office to bring the villans to justice?

it would be a welcome and pleasant surprise if, and i say if, Turnquest doesn't live to regret his words. . 'restore value' and 'turnaround' are not words found in any government dictionary... good luck!
