"*following a major blackout that plunged half of New Providence into darkness on Thursday night, Energy Minister JoBeth Coleby-Davis said efforts are underway to prevent a recurrence and enhance power reliability*"

According to Brave Davis the problems were a thing of the past fromJuly when Franklyn Wilson showed up mysteriously with 2 new generators.

**This the same salty carrot they be selling us for 50 years to enter into one bad contract after the next. Fred Ramsey was the only person convicted of entering into bad contracts by way of bribery**

This new contract which **gives away all of BECs assets to a company with literally nothing and a valuation of 200m based on nothing** is another example of such. They will leave BEC just as broken as it was the day they secretly entered into this bad deal. The investors will make out like bandits and continue to tell us how wonderful their money making is.

"*but if the government’s gambit in its BPL shake-up does not work, we will have wasted time and may very well have given our resources away at a value less than their true worth.*"

It's already shown signs of failure. Last night should no TV have happened. Brave Davis told us the outages would be a thing of the past as of July.

I dont think these people have any plan other than to fund purchases with other people money and hike up prices to make insane profits. Then charges the govt and arm and a leg to buy back a jacked up, still broken system

When he made the announcement that the problems would cease as of July and Frankie Wilson had 2 generators arrive in July. I said to myself, thats the fix? this *look like* Fred Ramsey, Desmond Bannister and 50 years of self serving money deals all over again.

Trump is a brain dead degenerate who appears to have no policy other than self enrichment. The last thing the Bahamas or America needs is 4 more years of him.

Truly a ruinous day in the Bahamas when the "*smart young people*" make the claim that character doesnt matter and money is everything. Just how we get in this mess

-

"*Bahamas Grid Company is raising $100 million through a private bond placement to fund $120 million in essential grid upgrades, targeted for completion by the third quarter of 2025. The bond prospectus indicates that expatriate workers will lead these upgrades, with plans to upskill Bahamian workers.*"

This company brought in 2 generators as a part of the solution. Brave Davis proclaimed as these 2 generators came in July that there would be no generation problems.

**This problem will only be solved with eradication of corruption through contract awards**

Because it's dangerous for one. Only God knows what's in that substance they're peddling to people. And second because **it's illegal**, nobody has a license to sell marijuana out their house and without a prescription

I heard someone giving advice to people to drink mildly salted water. And (specially prepared) "*salt water*" is a treatment doctors often prescribe.... to people with serious cases of diarrhea or dehydration. Healthy people getting salt through sea air and their regularly digested food have no need to drink salt water. But here it was being pedaled as "*good*"

I dont know who did the shooting, but when I heard the story it sounded like the case of those *known to police* who show up at the hospital after being injured "*on the job*"

They always paint this rosy *look how much money we guh make* scenario.

The one thing you cannot predict is how the customer will respond to your price increase. No intl company **has** to operate in the Bahamas. And word to the wise, they actively plan for the day they might pick up and leave like we plan for hurricanes. If the reason for moving here was to reduce tax burden, what's the reason for being here? For our sake it better be a good one.

The problem is, they dont have to collude in the true sense. One bank just has to increase fees and the other two say, oh, we could increase fees too!
