I didnt hear the evidence but jurys have gotten it wrong many times. It's not always the end of the story. But it is always true that money or lack of money makes a difference in your treatment and your defense. It's a fact that even her defense lawyer acknowledged
"*contrary to recent US congressional testimony, the PRC has not built the biggest Embassy around the globe in The Bahamas.*"
Lol. I literally just told a colleague that they **have** to be referring to the Pointe as the embassy because the actual Chinese embassy isnt all that big in comparison to say the property the US Embassy sits on. The fly in the ointment is I'm pretty certain US Northern command knows much more about China's spy capabilities, the activities they're conducting and where than we will ever know, irrespective of what parrots and other birds sit outside the building.
One nations spy is another nations decorated hero. One nations torture program is another nations national security.
Unfortunately its likely they've only done so because it would directly affect their bottom line as even Atlantis guests might be drawn away to the new site. Why do I say that? Because noone else has spoken up.
The problem with that statement and the problem on Brave Davis and Chester Cooper's hands is public perception. And perception is one of the foundations of political support. By the letter of the law, Toby apparently had no legal claim to a lease, but that is far from what the public perceived and it is far far far from what both Chester Cooper and the PM allowed Toby and the public to believe they would support if elected. **Everyone understands that Brave and Chester could have said, *ah, it looks like "legally" you didnt have a valid lease but we support Bahamians, and we'll honour what you had more than reasonable justification to believe you had***.
Too many people in this country have been victimized by political forces not to understand what happened. I get why they did it, RCL have more money than Toby, if we ignore any possibility of corrupt intentions, on the surface that means a better result for the country. Unfortunately the people on the street dont respect that view and history has taught us it don't matter how many billions an investor cones on with,all the people seem to get is maid, butler and short term construction jobs. Yes theyre better than no jobs at all, but just like the greedy politician, the average bahamian who works hard also wants the opportunity to move upward. Thats what Toby represented, and the *perception* is Brave and Chester allowed that dream to be destroyed. Thats their problem
"*the Junkanoo Beach portion developing without any structured management or plan. This, Mr Klonaris said, is making the area less attractive to both locals and tourists.*"
Y'all is wait too late. From the moment I saw 3 of those shanty town boxes going up on long wharf I asked right here what was going on??? That was years ago. I see the day when the entire stretch from arawak cay straight up to the big multi-story box will be littered with those 2x2 box dwellings. They expanding on both sides and it looks like a gigantic mess
About a month ago the contagion spread east, a 2nd shantytown box was erected on Montagu beach. Stay tuned..
Oh wait, now they give RCL a 150 year lease to develop more of the same and described it as "*more attractions*". You cant make up the visionless thinking. Clearly RCL wanted to replicate junkanoo beach minus the black people, cuz short sightedly people are spending money.
