I totally agree with this article. Take a look at the fish fry on Arawak Cay. No bahamian music is played there. The place next to drifters plays the most profanity music. It is ridiculous. Do your own survey and see how many bahamians own the conch salad stalls out there. Check to see how many bahamians owns/runs the restaurants out on fish fry. This I think is called the local fish fry. Ain nothing local about the fish fry on Arawak cay. One foreign national owns between 4 to 6 conch salad stalls out there and who buy from them?, us as bahamians. It is ridiculous. Look at the bahamian stalls at Potters Cay. No electricity and the clients have to be inhaling gas fumes all day.
Mr Rodney is currently also attempting to sell the former Robin Hood retail store on Prince Charles Drive, which is located on the site of the former Pepsi-Cola bottling plant. The Compass Point owner holds a mortgage lien on the property as security for the monies he advanced to finance the eastern expansion of the retailer’s owner, ***Sandy Schaefer.***
***Sandy Schaefer***. And this is the man who was accused of defrauding Customs when he had owned Robin Hood.
This man think he is in charge of this country. D'Aguilar need to let him know who run things in this country. He must be out of his mind threatening officials in this country. What he don't realize is that town planning determines what is built and where and in addition, no sales of property is done unless approved by the Government of the Bahamas.
Ignorance is no excuse. They knew far in advance, but rather than ordering the right replacement bags, they continued to order the single use bags. See Rupert Roberts talking about he was hoping to make $75,000.00 a month on sales of plastic bags. I ain feel sorry for him.
@birdie. Your brain must be the size of a bird. The whole idea was to discourage consumers from using single use plastic bags, not to pay for them. You are not forced to buy those plastic bags. Super value are selling their shopping bags for $1.29 each. Purchase one of them rather than paying that same price for 4 of the plastic bags that will affect us all in a few years. Think Birdie Think
***Rupert Roberts, Super Value’s principal, told Tribune Business the supermarket chain’s forecast that it would generate $750,000 per month from selling plastic bags during the six-month transition period had proven wildly optimistic.***
Ain feel sorry for him. He knew far in advance that the ban was going to be on January 1 2020. Why order plastic bags in October. He should have started ordering environmentally safe bags since June last year. That way he would have been the first to start the ban on single use plastic bags. He just wanted to make that $750,000.00 a month thinking that bahamians are fools and will fall for everything.
Send them back. Let them apply for the jobs that may come available when they are deported. They pay to come back on a work scheme. When the project is finished, they then go back home on their own monies. Don't think we are tired of having to pay for them to fly back free only to come back and make a mockery of our system by changing names and forging immigration documentation to work as someone else. My dad was a part of the contract in Florida many many years ago. Let them do it right by applying. Have no problem with them doing it right/wrong.
