I have seen what is going on in Treasure Cay. I can under some very specific circumstances with the proper environmental controls and impact studies maybe (big maybe) allow the dredge on the creek side. The beach on the other hand and the building of a dock on Treasure Cay beach where no other docks exist is disgusting. This is one of the top 10 most beautiful beaches in the world and the dock is a complete affront, insult, disgrace, piece of sh$t and an eyesore to the entire community and to the Bahamas in general.

I can guarantee you and I am not sure of the number but, if for example they get 1 week sick leave per year they take every single day of it (sick or not) and get paid twice. It is better than vacation! Double pay while your sick. No private company that was hemorrhaging money like BEC would continue this practice. Why not cut this stupid double dip robbery out and give people a bonus if they do not take any sick days over the course of a year or 6 months. I guess we all have to pay VAT now to prop up the bloated over paid double dipping. BEC is breaking this country the cost of electricity/energy is doing more damage to our economy than VAT could ever do. It effects and permeates every business and private person in the country and every sector of the economy. Imagine the economic boost if energy dropped 10-20% tomorrow. Reform at BEC should be the #1 priority of the government it would help or somewhat alleviate every other problem we have except maybe crime.
