These egegious blunders repeatedly happening wid detained persons walking about and kept fer years an years in this enclosed facility by clearly identified staffed departments of taxpayers paying their monthly salaries, to be doing this wrong. Salaried govt people must be singled out and held responsible. They can't be getting a salaried paycheck to be doing this and the taxpaying public being stick to their incompetance causing the $10, 000, 000. bill.

This fine of some $10,000,000. (ten million dollars) to come out of the same already stressed known twice hit by vat regressive taxpaying public, is ALSO inhuman punishment to the taxpaying public. Public cannot be paying twice for this and suffering from hospital beds shortages etc, cant be bought if money gone that way. Why should peoples chillren education education some10,000,000. gone that other way, why salary increases even overtime money owed to govt nurses etc,. This definitely ain't the peoples time to be stick with this bill an the done govt salaried workers ain't be held accountable and continue getting a taxpayer monthly salary.

Bey, seems erry single year going way back, year after year after year, there are significant numbers of cases of customers eating conch and getting sick eating ...and the cause always seem to blame the weather...blame the weather...blame the weather. The solution seems obvious is to get the message out an dont go there an eat conch during the similar forecasted weather conditions. If ya defy the known warnings, then suffer the consequences an no more bellyache an annual watery diarrehoea stories some victims seeme to regale broadcasting all over the place.

Someting fishy. The govt just creating special subsidised land price Subdivision by Skyline area for professional workers to be able to buy land. If professionals couldn't do the same savings, then how come the other workers be saving money?

Truly a very important day for all. This event needs to have the excellent Bahamian artist Kishan Munroe's UK Award winning paintings of the Flamingo and fallen marines, be arranged to be on public display. RIP our bave heroes fallen in action and will be remembered forever in the Bahamas.

Very sad. The article needs to have the inevitable quick response info which all persons, Agencies, Church groups, Church leaders, neighbours, community leaders, Charitable organizations publish phone Contact numbers and places where money donations be made to bank accounts, donations of immediate supplies be made etc.

Disgraceful. How in da world the salaried employed NIB for years suing NIB contributors fer not paying NIB dues......an then using contributors money, to purchase these income producing yeild on investments properties and let them run done an rotten.

People should be fired especially when it seems NIB needing for way some time before now... to have NIBcontributors go up of their NIBcontributions to bolster up the ability for benefits to continue way in the future. Photographs showing where peoples NIB contributiong going is quite revealing over years as govts come an go.

Muddoes, if even the NIB had rented the yard for someone to sell coconut water an jelly it would have least been one cent more muchless millions ...even one coconut which would be planted giving the people one coconut tree than before with coconuts now bearing..... than than earning nothing for years an years.

All banks ought to know of the "skimming" of cards by criminals. It is the seems normal procedure for banks to do the inevitable procedure of using the banks battery of lawyers and financial deep pockets to take these cases to overwhelm the customers.

Kudos to Ms. Pinder for having ability to go the distance win the case.

It seems obvious of culprits bank photographs ibank surveillance cameras illegally withdrawing from the account are the guilty ones. The bank personnel involved should be fired and not allowed to be in financial services industry and the banking juggernauts should be given a hefty fine for the wronged actions to customer.

Construction Building Agencies with Architects, Engineers, Surveyors and others must have rules and regualtions enforced or implemented to stop the lawlessness which goes on and in the poor constriction of structures at risk to human lives.

The Authorities must seek out the persons involved in the unauthorized putting together of materials to form structures for not legally approved, but designated human habitation and revoke Licence and label persons from engaging from being in the construction business for years. The building materials usually stamped with store origins can also be traced to stores and this massive ongoing illegal operations require store owners to liase with Building law authorities of materials going into this illegally constructed structures for human abode. and in cases seems even usually transported by stores straight to sites without Building Permit notice.

This rampant ongoing lawlessness of the putting together of building materials to form illegal shelters for human hhabitation must be regulated, especially in light of Bahamas nation facing increased hurricane ferocity and dangerous conditions affecting them.. Good, Authorities approved constructed homes for human habitation is more important in saving lives.

Very good JohnQ.

You have brought up a very important issue. Climate Changes and sea levels rising brings salt water into common drilled wells used with electric pumps and pressure containment tanks. There should be encouragements going back to the cisterns to be built into the housing structures and gutters on ends od roofs channeling rain water into cisterns/water tanks.
