Enough already. Everyone is tired of hearing about what Christie's govt. did. You promised to fix it and make things better for the average Bahamian and country as a whole. Print the list of what you have done to increase disposable income, and your plans to correct our financial woes, that does not include increasing taxes on the people. Will be looking.
What a bunch of B/S. How long does it take to repair or replace a non functioning air conditioning system at an institution as important as the Hospital. Management apologizing for any inconvenience caused is laughable. We are talking about peoples health and well being here, and brushing it off as if you were at a movie theatre and the projector broke. A sorry state of affairs for a brand new building. This speaks volumes to the competency of ministry and PHA officials, from the minister on down.
One can only wonder how, with a sewerage treatment plant so close, could licenses be given to Dairy Queen, Dominoes, the Deli next door, Subway, and Burger King (soon to be Bamboo shack) to serve food. A fowl odour permeates the entire area and it is amazing that more people are not sick. We need to get serious about the issuance of restaurant licenses and the location of these sewerage treatment plants in close proximity.
Spot on. Oracle. Disney will commercialize that beach. Destroy the reef; develop their own playground, and the dregs will go to the people of Green Castle and South Eleuthera. But then this is how it has been and always will be when we elect consecutive governments who careabout their pockets, and not the country, ecology, or welfare of the people.
Potters Cay is nasty. the Sewerage Plant was closed years ago and moved to the Landfill. There was to be no more sewerage processed at that plant. But it still smells like sh-t when you drive by. Bathroom facilities are filthy. Vendors and customers alike urinate in the water where the conchs are "strung up". They reside in muck and filth that has been accumulating forty years. No one washes their hands before mixing a salad. Every other would be restaurant owner has to have male and female restrooms, hot and cold running water, health certificates, and now this poisoning is being blamed on not washing the conchs in fresh water. Now we are going to inspect what is going on. Bulls--t. Close the whole place down. Make them put in individual restrooms, make them have a BPL hookup, make them adhere to all of the requirements of a restaurant, and have regular sanitation inspections. Stop all of this pointless talk. Oh, and make them pay the rent for which most of them are in arrears.
Bye bye VAT 4.5% increase. History has shown that no hotel owned by the Government, no matter who managed it, made a profit. We sold all of them at a loss, and failed to collect the tax revenues from the new purchasers. Here we go again.
I find it hard to believe these figures. A drop of only .1%. Come on. Get real. the Government has laid off enough workers on its own to far surpass this figure. What about the thousands that just got out of High School? Figures can be manipulated to reflect whatever you want them to. Time to stop this rhetoric and do something about it.
This has happened several times before. It is about time that this place needs to be closed and relocated out of the area which has residential sub-divisions all around it. A huge junk yard where it should not be.
