So this is all rose coloured glasses reporting. I see nothing about the strategic plan to preserve sea grass, they are susceptible to all the human activity we are so poor at monitoring oil spills, dropped anchors, chemicals etc. We couldnt even get one ship salvaged in an entire year
I hadnt been following this story. In conversation on Tuesday, someone brought it up, I said to them wait for the person with glasses and cheese doodle stained fingers to show up detailing all the warnings they gave that the higher ups ignored. The person said to me "*they just did*". Testing is a seriously misunderstood art/science nobody understands till the stuff hits the fan. I see Bahamas First is in trouble in Caayman for claims processing irregularities following a system upgrade... noone has to say, its *testing gone wrong*
**Poor *Climate Change*, it has become the "*Hurricane Matthew*" of the 2021 administrarion**, every bad decision impact is being blamed on it.
"*reflecting on recent flooding events in Exuma*"
This Exuma flooding has been systemic, with Brave Davis and Captain Russell visiting this same island 10 years ago to assess impact of flooding due to sustained heavy rainfall.
Heavy rainfall is not new and it's not due to climate change it's normal tropical weather. **The real problem is the poor Governmental planning that allowed construction in flood zones and construction to exacerbate flooding in low lying areas...prime example the Pointe. We are at risk of poor planning far more than any elusive climate change**
"*Mr Sears said the power provider was designing a business plan to make the corporation more “nimble”.*"
Didnt the expat BPL management produce a business plan in the 2012 PLP administration with Brave as Minister of Works? Cant they just dust that off and refine it?
"*cutting the VAT filing deadline for firms with annual turnover exceeding $5m has been "wholly rejected as unworkable"*
Who is making all of these disastrous decisions at the Ministry of Finance?
The most dangerous aspect is not the change in rules but *the change*. Constant repeated ill thought change with disastrous consequences scares business away. Like the owner of Blue shipping said, when they announced the closure of their sgipping business line, they'd "*just had enough*"
