100% true

21 year old baby-making machine. Had a child at age 13. She should be ashamed to show her face in public, let alone file a lawsuit.

These people have only one goal - to become the majority race in the Bahamas - at any cost. Feeding their kids low quality food, as long as they are breathing they count as a person in their eyes.

Quality of life means nothing to them.

So have they been trained in the proper procedure of assisting Haitians to enter the Bahamas?

The thing is this : Many Haitians cannot afford all the diesel necessary to travel from Haiti to Nassau. So the RBDF normally assists boats that are "captured" (LOL) in the southern islands - by providing a free towing service from there to our capital city of Nassau - where they receive a slap on the wrist, a finger wagging, and are then released into society with best wishes for success.

Cadets hopefully have been trained in the proper procedures of securing towing lines to sometimes rickety craft. More than one line is often necessary to distribute the towing pressure across the bow - else just one pressure point could actually rip through the semi-rotten wood.

Anyway - I'm sure they have been trained - and are now ready to work hard and be successful in the RBDF - also known as Fred's Free Haitian Towing Service - LOL.

I think your viewpoint has a LOT of merit. He should have pushed a little harder a little sooner. Work progress could have slowed down 8 to 10 months ago even, to send a signal.

Heck, I would have even faked a few power outages with the help of a skilled electrician and just kept saying "We are looking into the cause of our breaker trips with haste. At the same time, we are concerned about the supply of power from B.E.C. once we are at full capacity."

A day or two work stoppage due to an unexplainable lack of power would have drawn attention to the cause. Perhaps even a few visits to the labour board by some employees (who you would pay under the table - but pretend not to pay) and they could make a big fuss about not being paid and it wasn't their fault that the power went off - boo hoo hoo. But keep them loyal by secretly paying them off the record.

There is more than one way to skin a cat - as they say.

You have to be creative to survive in this Pirate's Den we call the Bahamas.

Wonder how many managers they have fired over the past 5 years, who have DARED to suggest doing anything differently than the way THEY said it should be done?

Just wondering. That may not be the case here.

It is unfortunate, but too often times people with plenty of money think they know everything such as how to change the spark plugs in a diesel engine - just because they have money.

So one share costs $5.20 ? of which 4.62% = $0.24 ?

Could a person buy as few as 100 shares then for $520? How/ who do you contact?

Wonder how long before the roof simply caves in at the main post office downtown? That building is ready to collapse.

And if Mr. Izmirlian had just given up after 3 months of not getting an overhaul of BEC then you would have called him a quitter or a sore loser.

He hang in through thick and thin hoping that something would be done by Govt. It is now past the due date, and so work has stopped.

That's how it works. Govt didn't deliver (surprise?) - so here's where we are.

You cannot do things unless you are the cabinet minister responsible for a certain Ministry. You want after school programs? Rollins would have to be the Minister of Education or the Prime Minister. You want road works? He would have to be the Minister of Works or the Prime Minister. Etc. That's how it works. If people would put pressure through Party channels to make Rollins become Prime Minister (which could happen next week with a vote of no-confidence in the Party, and a letter to the Governor General) - then you could get some things done. Otherwise we gotta wait until 2017.

I agree. Another non-article with next to zero information. Only grievance mentioned was back-pay - which I agree is a serious grievance - but the article suggests that there are a number of issues, but then only names one.
