This is wrong way innovation. Said from when they forced people to accept sanddollar as payment during COVID that it was the very opposite of innovation
During COVID, I found alot of people started using the terms digital transformation and employing strategies to digitally transform without understanding what it requires
Why would you even pose that question? Someone murdered this man and he's suddenly gay based on nothing? And being gay doesnt make you violent being violent makes you violent, gay or heterosexual
"*Maillis said he questioned former prime minister, Dr Hubert Minnis, about what he asserted was a policy under the last administration of “procuring and allowing the decommissioning of the remaining great fresh water lenses of New Providence which, I shall be submitting, will have disastrous consequences for the people of New Providence in shifting the water business to machine purified water with all the dangers of equipment failure and rising production costs”.*
This is unbelievable if true, and if the current govt maintains this direction everytime the PM gets up to lecture any international body about what theyre doing to us poor islands the entire room should get up and walk out.
Who's getting the water contracts? Did DR Minnis have a beneficial interest?
We seriously have no rudder if we do this. Did they not see Dorian destroy every man made system? And they want to put concrete over our fresh water supply?
What are we selling off next? Maybe we'll be selling off portions of our sea water to foreign buyers
So back in the day the talk was, if you do it online you avoid all the costs of traditional business. Well guess what, it wasnt only the innovators who understood this, the world leaders recognized that internet businesses were taking from their pot. So what did they do? They started created legislation specifically to reap from online services. The Bahamas jumped in the ring taxing facebook ads and air bnb rentals and in true ANTI innovation form theyre looking at what else they can strangle.
There's one truth you can trust. The OECD will not allow their citizens to bank in the Bahamas unchecked. Digital assets, cryptocurrency will be no different. If you trading it for your clients and impacting tax collection in Europe, they will force you to reveal it and tax it.
This is what happens when a national entity has a stake in a private firm and they have the power to eliminate all of its competitors. First it was the moratorium on payment providers. Maybe next govt wont accept payment in anything but sand dollars. This is all anti-innovation
sweethearts can be raped too. I remember two prominent married men charged with rape of a girlfriend. In both cases charges were predictably dropped after a few weeks
Im really concerned about the poor analysis of the data by NEMA. there was no need to tell anyone to purchase any plywood, especially given the astronomical cost. Saying we have to be extra careful is simply wrong. What we "have" to do is interpret and relay the data correctly. If individuals want to take what youve said and decide to be "extra" careful thats fine, its your job to relay the correct amount of caution based on available "data"
"*estimated the property will directly employ up to ten persons, and indirectly up to 100 through rented vendor stalls*"
So the non profit wants the land... lease/rent doesnt matter, who's going to bulldoze a Dorian memorial to get land back? I would say they need to have some serious checks and balances in place to ensure that the implementation and use matches the beauty and functionality of what is planned. We dont need an Oban land grab or a straw market and we dont need a half finished project with one building developed in 20 years.
I do hope they have strategies, should this come to fruition, to ensure this doesnt turn into an unsightly straw market with cheap tshirts and bags hanging over every bare wall inside and outside
