Ain't nobody going to tell this man how or what to do. He has a huge chunk of the grocery market; is very wealthy; employs hundreds, if not thousands, and is up in years. What would happen if Super Value and Quality Markets closed down? He is a shrewd business man and has for the last three weeks been emptying his shelves of the soon to been no duty breadbasket items. His Cable Beach store only has one brand of corned beef on the shelves and the chicken selection is deplorable. His coolers are not working properly and there is blood and muck in every chicken cooler. So what? He has the only food chain for the middle and lower class. Fresh Market is a disgrace. Overpriced; and many of their items are stale dated. The government can never collect all the vat due to them and price control is a joke. Attack the food stores. See what happens. I will watch and see.
What other comments could we expect from a lawyer? Their principals went out the window when they passed the bar exam and realized how much money is to be made. Their concern is not guilt or fault. It is finance.
Potters Cay is a disgrace. The conchs are kept in polluted water, the disgusting bathroom facililities, or lack thereof, have people urinating overboard right where the conchs are tied up. Garbage is piled up and strewn all over the ground, in the area opposite the Produce Exchange. Even though the sewerage treatment plant was "closed down" many years ago, there is still an offensive odour emitted from that area. While some of the vendors have beautified their stalls, the majority of them seem not to be concerned about proper cleaning of the seafood. Electricity seems to be mostly supplied by portable generators, and that begs the question; how can they get approval to operate in such deplorable conditions. If I want a restaurant license, I have to have hot and cold running water; government electricity; male and female wash rooms and health and food handling certificates. It is ludicrous to paint this area as a tourist attraction. Clean it up like you promised, and enforce all the health regulations. Maybe then conch poisoning will become a thing of the past.
The Harbour Island of today is not the Harbour Island of yesteryear. Drugs, stealing, intimidation and harassment of visitors are commonplace, and it definitely is not safe to roam around at night, as it was before. Another "gem" is fast vanishing.
So, Sky Bahamas belongs to who. Mr. Butler. Mr, Turnquest is a shareholder. No matter all of the Bull Crap he is spewing, he will benefit from this. Hence a conflict of interest. How many other bahamians give a sh-t about airplane, helicopter; new or used, parts or otherwise. We will have problems to pay our bills to survive. To even publish this exemption is assinine.
