If he is genuine as to what he is stating then by all means this is what needs to be done and should have been standard practice. However we all know a lot of under the table deals go on and that is why things are the way they are now! I read some of the comments about scaring off foreign investors and such, which is all bull we understand that businesses are here to make money. It’s just going about it in the right way. I know of many companies that employ workers who are not Bahamian but the jobs they are doing Bahamians can do! And yes there is an expectation for those highly skilled jobs that requires some sort of major certification in which will take years but companies themselves should think of the bottom line. While when they bring in their foreign workers they have to pay thousands of dollars for their work permits along with paying in many cases for living arrangement and other benefits, all of this immediately affect their bottom-line why not try and train or educate Bahamians to save the company a lot of money (case in point sandals emerald bay) that is all!!
