Real estate values based on only high ground on one hand sea rising and on the other hand seas rising. May be one acre land steep gradient, nearest neighbour 100 miles away with two acres but at level losing land in fewer years.!!!
Rising seas will swamp hotels tourism as they are already on beachfronts and jobs, no money, cascading inability other businesses survival. Survival based on how good remaining elevated smaller islands can be independent or easily supplied and for how long. Survival of remaining Bahamas land will have submerged areas and islands which survival exists in relation to nearness etc of other islands. Nearness of other islands, land mass must offer viable cost effectiveness sharing of items basic for survival long term. Not wanting to do repeat having airports, hospitals etc on each island. Depends on what the scientists suggest islands remaining and for longest period to survive and in conjunction to world.
Somewhere there should be govt scientists running computer models changing weather effects on what islands can survive. Survival of a nation might only boil down to few islands capable of residents. All the scientists running computer models will also be taking into other areas of the world including clostest neighbour the United States, the largest import-export Bahamas survival depends on and sellable products, industry to generate levels of money to buy.

2013 Global School Based Health Survey in the Bahamas. Well six in ten children between ages of 13 and 15 were overweight or obese. Only16.6 percent usually ate fruits and vegetables more thsn five or more times a day. 84 percent children did not get not get enoigh exercise

The school Stephen Dillet located on the Constituency line Centreville Constituency snd the Bain and Grants Constituemcy with the Ministry of Health with both FNM Member of Parliament Representatives who lost jobs standing up against govt, and one even quitting the Party now have schools with health programs initiated.

This good program seems a bit off in having these youths, children in this poverty stricken area listed as OBESE and only 16.6 percent eating more than five or more meals with fruits and vegetables a day. Further, wid 84 percent did not getting dailt exercise dey officials shouldda note that most students in these densely populated poverty challenged areas usually gets up early have to prepare themselves, in usually single family home, have to tote water from the street pipe water stand, gets exercise daily have to walk to school.

Any idea on in whose Constituency the next program will be????

These $1. dollar deals like the $1. dollar deal for Saunders Beach cost taxpayers hundreds perhaps Millions of dollars to build toilets, groins and years and years trying to grow grass. Today tourists and residents use many other beaches.

The GB plans should evaluate another site on the island to better function to have survival of all residents. Other site like the former US Tracking airport which is not on the shoreline prone to flooding and is more inland on higher ground. All surrounding areas can be more shored up for new runway. Looking at flood levels comparing both it seems former US base is higher and can still link vast habitable areas and with some earthworks etc. Appears that in patching present airport may only become another island in high tides unusable to residents.

Govt should look at new site bearing massive jobs to island. Growing businesses outside Port area. Bringing back synergies tourists want to visit of island atmosphere not like visiting another US town with a beach. Much potential exists for all country rather than going back to last chapter present owners done know no value for money.

There are just too many gaps in this story which does not addup. As is there may other unheard, unseen groups which were part of the transfer. No superiors group could have made a decision without morale issues disjoint in established teamand no political group would have singly chosen to have this position without obvious rammifications. There would also be a group of peers, a group of unknown group and or who knows. There may have also groups gone to in making the decision still sticking. More reasons to bolster reason to transfer this top cop position to PMH and his taking this to the press. A more detailed role is also required rather than a role with patients and others trying to kill them. Is it the gangs are increasing, more dangerous threat? Does his role involve million dollar thefts at PMH? Does the entire PMH needs more security just being close to US new Embassy? The role must be expanded on to press. Perhaps he may be the only cop capable of doing best job at present or refurbishing PMH.

Very good engineering plan.

Implement Recall and timing before Election will advocate direct resent motivating action by voters, focusing to outlet to have MP for removal. Then agreeing on voters with minimum costs then SELECT new MP bettrr likihood for elected mimimum costs impetus of voters. Then of course win seat for party to become governing party and new MP later have to follow Westminister system full support to Party. Very good who is in power calls the shots.

Views are from the companies. The other part of the equation must be from the applicants, employees.

Many applicant usually have to not tell full abilities in order to get jobs. Many employees will have complaints about the employer who in many cases fail to provide conditions to get results. In many businesses the envoronment gets more expensive, more taxes and in many businesses benefits shrink. Number of Bahamian businesses are struggling and some large well known businesses close.
Given todays realities businesses must also look within on why they are not getting the best from what they are offering.

Bahamas is the leader in the "bribes for convenience" or "things are go more quivkly or better"
Also known fact there is no FOIA or Public disclosures.

Why can't these people realize that the Bahamian public wondering how many "shingles" they received to say that.!!!!!!

Bahamian fully know what time of day it is. The Cable Beach entrepreneur an Bahamian only finding out people goosie process and jump bids to buy hotel, Bahamiams only just finding out foreign govt investigating bribery on boats, foreign govt reported fake marriages. Locally why even Doctor got off from shooting someone and got off and then resentensed to volunteer time, why even one court official got in trouble by Politician when she asking big question what about employer? when bunch of illegsls caught in the business?...why couldnt these decades old repatriation of thousands of illegals be recorded as individual cases being illegally employed but not the hundreds of employers recorded, or, persons registered as breaking laws aiding, abeting. What no cases of Human Smuggling done but not catching Captain or Organizers of Illegal Human Smuggling??? What about audit Road Traffic millions missing, BoB govt paying $100M fot collaterals valued only $22.5M....what about audits by law results not received? What even about everyonge waiting for politicians audits for years never yet revealed because mold in some building the unit renting, Bambsi cheques missing,.Post Office Bank bin operating but dont know how much money dey have., why for decades illegal plane hackers operating from Airport and never caught cause they can run faster , why do banks operate like oligopoly and done so for decades?...why .on and on....
