but extremely odd for a minister of foreign affairs to almost poo poo the threat of illegal immigration. Ive always wondered who exactly was profiting from the illegal racket in forged documents and why it never gets resolved. Also why Shame was so interested in getting back into politics.
I listened to the President of Botswana, he said he wants to find out how we got to 9million visitors. I find both this and the last Tourism Minister are overly arrogant about what they did to accomplish this. I have a short answer for the President of Botswana, find a way to move your country within a 30 minute plan ride of one of the largest consumer economlies in the world and you too can have 9million tourists. In fact because you also have an ecotourism base with interesting things for people to do and see, you might make it 18million
The highly politicized atmosphere at the moment, scrambling to appear to do alot of good things without any plan or budget to actually complete reminds me of Perry Christies promise of free electricity right before the election
The cost of doing business is too high. Thsts not a complaint but a reality and its artificially high due to successive govts inability to innovate and at the same time placing strangleholds on Bahamians attempting to do so. #TobySmith. The kickback tax is also a real thing. It triples prices, then has the tax man trying to replace those liberally awarded dollars by increasing taxes on the poor yet again. 2.5 million for an elevator? 100k to travel to Grand Bahama? Now the toilets need to fix. If only we hadn't padded the elevator contract by 2 million dollars.
Yes. That's kinda what I mean... basically, they're not "*absent*" of fear. That's a good sign. Even "*less than*" is a good thing. Everyone should recognize and be humbled by something greater or even something to work toward
The statement this morning says "*they were invited*". So in a casual conversation and suddenly 5 ministers travelling around the world at who knows what unplanned unbudgeted cost. They dont seem to care about their budget or how theyve increased our taxes to support this frivolous travel

These boys might make it, because everybody head down. That means they recognize seniority somewhere in the room. That's a good thing.
