Wtf? If they're American, then send them to America, If they're Cuban Send them to Cuba. When Bahamians get a criminal charge in the states, they get sent back here.
Why are we holding onto US prisoners for the US if they really are US persons? And if we are doing this is the us paying us to?! (Or Cuba, or wherever their supposed to be). QUOTE - Mr Marin was a Lawful Alien Resident, and Mr Mendoza was a Permanent Resident. <- is that in the US or here, i'm a bit confused
That being said, administrative bureaucracy is not justification to jail people indefinitely. Alot of Bahamian Criminals seem to be able to get bail, and are somehow not considered threats to national security. How would this case be different? (Throwing round 'national security' so vaguely is just reminiscent of American Political Parlance... and lacks any specific meaning)
You don't need 2 Billion $ to start tourist attractions. Infact many tourist would love the quaint 'island life' vacation experience. All it takes is community and organization. A small loan could start a project that includes cottages that can be rented. The community can come together to set up a local market that tourist who rent cottages can walk around and feel like they are experiencing a 'simpler' life (which is why they go on vacation). Tourist want beaches... it does NOT take 2billion to employ some locals to clean beaches so tourist can sun tan.
Promote local businesses like restaurants and attractions in the area. You can start small and build your customer base. Keep it up, and build upon the laid foundations and soon S Andros will enjoy a larger market share in the tourism industry.
UK, Canada, US didn't sit back and wait for loans to build their countries. This idea that you just throw money at something and it works is part of why Bahamian businesses don't seem to get very far, especially internationally. This is what i meant about is it that we as Bahamians CAN'T do this... or do we believe that we can't?
Apparently we believe that we can't because we need 2Bill$ out the hands of a foreigner to even move our ass
