...over time the nomenklatura forms that is like the bureaucrats an the politicians become one ...an immovable mass intertwined in various relationships....family, friends businesses eycetcetc...only they benefit as seems to be happpening..disappointing as some indoviduals have extremely distinguished ivy league education ...
Governing the archepelogic set up of islands deserves another look at governance.....perhaps a republic....vote for a President ...and vote separately for the congress..at different intervals...I like the way roc wid doc has tried to break with tradition in not having the Finance portfolio to govern like a CEO and the Finance minister freer to tackle the challenges ......what is to follow is now the questionable issues sre revealed ..dat justice must follow..

..."In this regard, it must be a particularly tight rppe for the Government to explain to the Central Bank, OECD and the other international agencies how money gained from a previously unregulated environment can be made clean overnight by legislation alone."
.......
The majority of the Bahamians voted no to the Referendum on approving web shop gambling as God fearing citizens with deepest respect and honour for Our Almighty Lord and Savioir Jesus Christ....... And the governing party went against the democratically held Referandum. voting NO...Many of us stood in line in Polling stations at Church halls looking at the Cross of Our Lord...... under which persons were pulling straws for his garment and voted NO....noone is mightier than Our Almighty Lord and Saviour.

....as part of the nomenklatura...the same fixed group of bureaicrats and politicians....no matter which new govt the people chooses....there are still there linked like W&S executives and politivian in Exuma.
...these revelations are exceptionally good thanks to the trailblazing reporters for the Tribune.....we are all VAT taxpers and in all fairness thanks to the present govt...the bold MP Gibson..but now lets see the full justice done......for all the rest of the nation (375,000 less those involved).......deproving the poor, all those parents denying themselves necessities so they can feed their children,...the poor who just go hungry, needy, needing hospital beds, needing social services, who were deprived of benefits they too could have enjoyed from governance....justice delayed is justice denied

There are good and bad politicians........Kudos to any politician who exposes corruption
The people who suffer are those who are the least able to fend for themselves. Paying a larger portion of VAT on survival than the wealthier and precious resources diverted from creating opportuniyies...for all
Sadly further benefits they could have had to better their lives are now being found in blatent corruption.........despite supporters trying to not have investigations....and this is not to say that fraud does not exist on both sides.
Despiye the political objectionists, friends, lovers and die hard supporters cronies, butt kissers, vehemently denying, misleading, bombbast, protecting, it is expected that .......criminal actions fraud be punished to the fullext of the law.
Roc wid Doc as Prime Minister of the entire Bahamas must be given credit for his stand against curruption...!!
Amazing,..Shocked....!!L

Given the large mega deals that arise from possibe foreogn direct investors which ideally if perfect is a quick fix for politicians to a number of challenges....for any political party in power...and it will appear to always generate threats, and bad mouting from whosoever is the opposition......what should happen in the interests for the entire country is just like the appropriation of senatorial positions.....both parties should have an investments council made up of both sides and other experts to sit and thrash out and put together the nest possible deal for the nation....
