The VAT taxes 7.5% and added increases at 12% have effectively taken out of the pockets of all Bahamians income and increases in fuel costs gas have effectively and efficiently subtracted fron the incomes......and more so the pore ....recent IDB repprt points out the poorest hurt by some 2.4% of their iincome with fuel prices increases...Simply if the govt Is taking MORE and more vat an MORE other Taxes COMING out of your incone and cost of living increasing...an salaries aint increasing...people getting laid off Needin help from other family still gat a job....
Saying mortgagors dont ttalk to the bank an still saying the arrears is high not being paid is a distraction from the fact ...that the crises was not averted....way before it collasp the bank....save for more taxpayer yetagain to guarrantee survival....
This obviously did not happen overnight.......begs the question what was yhe chairman...board of directors...paid ..salaried bmc...employees ..management doing about this....all dis time..,!!!!!!.....an telling audited reports dont come in in time....by salaried people...is no excuse....to blame mortgagers for slackness of BOD....who could have nipped this in the bud...or tried....before now crises...
The Minister should have also be telling the mortgagers in Grand Bahama for not repaying loans also.....or obviously they too ...would be also in this......
