The Dorian recovery needs to go beyond rebuilding structures. Future needs to ppay viability to settlements. Increased water levels being accelerated coming decades, frequent above average tide, increased winds.

Surviving as nation needs entire survey starting from underwater sea channels, low gradient shores, coral reef dying off, etc., Just structures building it back on high grounds needs to have consultants from Holland full experience tried an tested programs.and surveys using dykes, ditches, dams their expertise. Areas elevated needs elevated roads going to other access points.
Just rebuilding has to totally involve all these factors for most if not all people to survive, access to power, water, food supply, essential services, Hospital, Communications, airport, police, harbour. And rebuilding of any island survival in disaster has to be in connection of all other islands in chain and even neighbouring countries also in path of Hurricane damages.

Noone comes here has to hav palm grease. In the reconstruction works, not palm grease, not money but shingles.

Full investigation needed starting with the Board of Directors overseeing and then bancruptsy as significant interest, Bahamian assets, workers involved made unemployed, contracts, stopping turnover on investments affecting growth levels international financial organizations guage for financial grading influencing nation etc. Now that reducing nation Commonwealth of the Bahamas again to " nation for sale" demands investigation yet again.

You is obviously foul mouthed because you been up your peoples ass talking shit. There was no 25cent fee or tax for poor people to pay when buying food and then the tax or fee given to the shore owner! If you been to the store people often fills a sturdy bag and totes it themself. Less bags to pack, less or no packers, period!!!. Jackasses like yourself have for years pushing down regressive taxes onto poor Bahamians while you enrich friends cronies lovers.

The entire judiciary on this small island needs to be reviewed in selecting officiers especially when the leaders of politicial party and imputs from their ruling party and other sources and political leader of party makes the appointment of a selected position. Alot seems to go on in secret.

It is clearly known that Political Party on this small island makes Political appointments to their own political appointments to boards of directors, and other Political Appointments to ruling govt positions, corporation Boards, entities govt controlled Bahamas, Mortgage Corporation, Govt Development Bank, Bank of the Bahamas etc to best carry out the political mandate of the political party. AND political party leader makes appointments to Judiciary.

After ruling govt political appointees already appointed to ruling Boards etc. it is narrow selection when these prior political appointed then be judiciary appointed by same or other or together with other leader of the other political party.
May seems while impartial judges question would be raised on seems half the entire appointed serving judges having served on politically appointments or other service on BOARDS of continuous money losing entities overseen. And continuous people taxes, subjentions to like Bank of the BahamaS and other Boards where forensics audits may or may not arise to Court Actions. Many concerns on govt entities have come up but nothing seems to happen an all covered up.

Clearly any vacancy for judiciary and increasing independent and Transparency must start with a clearly advertisement ad for the position in all the papers, and media and on every island. This gives a chance of every Bahamas Bar Association total better chances of imput, erry citizen on entire nation have an opportunity to imput on vacancy of Judiciary officials.

The former MP talking about the nation needs to heal its racial divide and himself in glaringly omitting the architect of the Bahamas Tourism and Banking.

Crime out of control begs the question where dey bin when gov't been increasing biggest widening between pore and rich in the Bahamas of all Caribbean countries??

Just few days ago gov't experts banning plastic bags charging tax or fee of 25c to $1. Dollar per bag to stop plastic AND never checking for all the thousands of bag boys at all grocery stores across the island. All these young boys usually all from the struggling urban areas earn money which goes to buy food and essentials.

These struggling young men bag boys packing grocery bags get to learn discipline by stores working, learning proper dressing to work, bag boys get to learn excellent communication skills (they know how to earn that extra tip with good manners, smile efficient, run back checking prices items in aisle, ), learn their packing prioritizing skills-not putting the eggs and tomatoes at the bottom of bag , toting bags to vehicle etccetc .

Given the enriching of the store owners in have them charge for bags to eliminating full use of plastic bags and lessening the amounts of grocery store bag boys, ain't been seeing no decision making politicians hav nothing to say store owners getting richer by govt and also pushing pore struggling bag boys back into the pore homes in pore areas.

Jus another example of fully organizing by law tekking bread outta pore people an pore people grocery store bag boys sons and daughters mout an making rich richer.

Many of these children are now brought up by single parent...by young girls just child themselves,....by young female with a unemployed sweetheart,...young female has child with a secret married man,....has number of chilldren from number of different fathers, child or children brought up by elder female grandparent on little pension as mother on drugs unemployed,....children raised by others because parent got deported,...children brought up in grinding proverty has little or no sociial skills,....children broight up by gangs,.....

To find solutions is to first understand what most decision makers choose to not know except at two weeks campaigning before elections.
