My my my. . .my people are again talking like they eeen gat no dang sense. . .the ratio of expat to Bahamian worker are contingent on the phase construction being done!! Further, the number of local subcontractor man power are factored into the expat/Bahamian ratio!!

Yall does forget quick. . .it was the PLP who made that agreement with Beijing. . .from phase one to finish!!! So if yinna want to stick yall heads into the sand to make a political point. . .go right ahead. . .just keep ya nonsense to yasef!! davis talking nonsense. . .he had no problem when the plp was cooking up and serving that "drug deal-type" agreement with the chines. Yall can let him mosey along with his dumb nonsense. . .i will not!!

A third force made up of the two second forces? A third and new force. . .not a brand new second hand force made up of fnm and plp pigs who could not get close to the feeding pot. . .hahahahahaha!!

Just listen to mudder-take-sick, same old political bull patties designed to "get my share" sounding clinking mouths. . .

His audacity is wrapped up in the "dumb" stuff said by who run on with fally and guff that has no basses in reality. . .people then dismiss you as a moronic jackass who can't be honest with anything. . .because of your hate or greed for power. I have been telling you for years that your style and approach is weak and juvenile. . .good for entertainment but not to be taken serious thinking!!

Let me show you how yoon thinking! One, government has been selling properties (all types) and asserts to recovery tax arrears for decades in this country. . .so what is ya point there! Two. . .government has already made VAT at 15%! Current tax ceiling is 12 and half percent. . .or 13 cents since we have no 1/2 cent. . .they round up to the nearest point. . .ergo 13%!

Now here is where the international folks "swing" yinna to get their original 15% suggested by IMF and the PLP and FNM messed up for political gain. . .which the FNM ger have to raise after they win the next election. . . that's if Davis leads the PLP into the next election.

So a man whom yinna call dumb used his head and get rid os yinna one cent coin making yinna lowest coin value to five cents. Oppsssss. . .VAT is 12 and half percent. . .yinna een gat no one cent coin. . .yea. . .you guessed it there dude. . .ya round up to the nearest point. . .15 cents. . .wap!!! Ya paying 15% VAT!!! If you would take time ta shut ya trap and use ya brain, ya may put that quick brain of yours to some good use around here!!

what a big joke! Mr. Cooper just born yesterday aye? I honestly believe that if the PLP do not get two "good" leaders before the next general election, these two ger run the FNM right back into government!!

I can see ya "lil" PLP there!!! buuuuutttttttttttttt. . .i carn even push one strand of hair in between what you said up there. . .on target there good sir!!

Thanks. . .these are the kind of discussions we should be having. . . now there is the raise in vat. . .it is now effectively 15 cents on the dollar!! For example, move up to 13. . .14? Yes, only 15 is the next discreet denomination up from 13 or 15. . .we have 15 cents but no 13, or 14. . .just 15!! Effectively. your 12 % VAT just moved up to 15 cents. . .you don't think they will round back down to 10 cents aye?

That 1.12 moves 3 cents for the shop. . .3 cents for VAT. . . or 15 cents on the dollar!! Mr. Turnquest is right they will not be moving to 15% VAT in the near term. . .they have already reached the imf requested 15 cents on the dollar. . .just by cutting out the cents!!

So Mr. Mandala, how you figure them shops will deal with their rounding to the nearest whole. . .they will be glad to move up but refuse to move down? Don't you think?

I gone away for awhile and leave you "talking fally". . . still dishonest as usual. . .useless for good dialogue!!

The international community **will not interfere** in our dealing with legal or illegal migrants moving into or out of the Bahamas!!!!

I found it strange that the Tribune Editorial page was "vex" with the USA released report about tourists attacks in the Bahamas. She/he got all bent out of shape because they finally see how them international watch dog groups does get their information. . . usually from "gossip" off the streets!! I tell you no lie. . .from gossip off the streets!!

However, I watch them get upset about the crime against tourist information from gossip off the street. . .even though he/she called it old news. . .yet he/she supported gossip off the streets about Bahamian Government agents whole sale beating and sexing Haitian immigrants!! Hahahahahahha. . .what a joke!!!

I worked and still working with many of them UN/USA and local Human Rights groups over many years now. . .my worse gripe with them all the time is how they **"get news from gossip"** and never approach the other side of the dispute or conflict to hear their side of the story!!

But I tell yall right now. . .why yall think that the government een running scared while certain persons "running" they mouths about dumb stuff? Some of yinna need to go to the government training center on Gladstone Road and see how many of them international organizations are here "talking with yinna government"!!!

I sat in plenty of their meetings since Dorian. . .the Bahamas is in full compliance. . .each deportee is sent before the court. . .the courts are ordering them deported. . .none of the complained about getting abused or sexed by anyone who detained them!! Yall don't mind some of them renegades who getting in the papers and talking fool. . .they asked for courts. . .now they getting it!! Them UN peoples dem een checking for them illegals. . .they looking to see if we will send them legals (not work permit peoples dem) home by mixing them up with illegals!!

Thanks to Fred Smith. . .all they can do now is sit on the side line and talk. . .they made the laws. . .the bahamas comply just as america or uk them comply.

I suggests that you go and read too. . .the PLP were the only ones had they hands on any money concerning this deal!! LBT just come on the air and told we that FNM them were buying them boats for far cheaper. . .then the PLP come around and add "pocket money" that served as kick back them Dutch suspect. . .so stay a lil balanced here ma fella. . .

Not so Mr. John. . .the company that got 8+ million is here in the Bahamas. . .with Bahamian stakeholders. . .the white man's company is in Barbados. . .Bahamians are suspects in getting kick-backs!! Bernard Nottage was recorded as saying that he extra 13+ million was for possible scope changes that was likely to come from the contract!! Nottage, Bell and Christies are directly responsible for that baby!! 8= million came back into this country. . .to whom they don't know as yet. . .the Bahamian representatives failed to appear the meeting called by the Dutch!!
