So the old Bahamian adage usually reserved for thieves is now Government policy:
"If it is needful, it is lawful!"
Ha Ha Ha I have now heard it all!!

A mediocre effort at best, grade school level entertainment. The videos of the participants in their best party mode, posted freely shows the remedial level of the delegation.
Cronyism, short and sweet! (for them)
And now they're stuck in Dubai, begging for Money to come home? This ain't over yet.

In Dubai showcasing ? Certainly not our realities.
Best stay his hip here at home where all the problems that need solving are!

More than a couple in there that debase the Honor.
Ironic that they still want the Queens Honors and not the Bahamian honors meant to replace them.

It would be very hard to deny just how unfit to Govern they all are. Lock Stock and barrel.
The whole "look here what we found" is sleight of hand, a distraction, doomed to be repeated by the next set of elected pillagers.

What a typical mess.

worse than little children they cannot help but "diddle" with duty rates, vat rates, other fees and taxes. Zero business stability, certainty or ability to project and plan.

Typical double speak, typical confusion, and looks to me that Clint has sold his soul to the current devils in office. Who is the Bahamian or Bahamian organization that profits from this nonsense?
Is it the political party in office at the time? Is it an individual connected to either party in office at the time?
How much revenue does the treasury see from this event?
And all it does is scrape the pockets of Bahamians who can ill afford to be scammed by the carnies.
Also Tal has a point: Is this even a legitimate U.S. (or other country) operator with relevant safety inspections/permits/licensing/track record?
Somehow I doubt it.

Surely he misspoke, surely he meant Poor country rich politicians!
Such a walking, talking oxymoron. Government departments while still sometimes slow move at light speed compared to the years before.
You cannot expect stellar and prompt service when the Government is the catch all for hiring,
Especially pre election.
With more than half unaware of the laws and rules for their dept, instead being politically instructed, which is what he here seems to admit. There should be no change from government to government.

There are thousands of young Bahamian professionals,
They all leave or stay wherever they became professionals!
Can you blame them?
