These discussions are pointless. This project won't happen. It's nonsense from people who have neither the knowledge nor the backing to execute something like that. They claim it will be more exclusive than Baker's Bay... laughable. This is most likely a con on investors who should know better. This would all be very funny if it wasn't so sad.

Apart from the charitable spending I don't see much of an impact on the Bahamian economy. Doubtful much in taxes were paid outside the real estate transactions. Mostly one-off payments to people who weren't and won't be hurting.

Things won't change before Nassau's airport isn't renamed.

“To demonstrate that we are serious about collecting property tax, we are updating the law to simplify the process by which we can take action against all classes of property owners, with the exception of Bahamian owner-occupied properties.”

oh the irony... saying they are being serious, but excluding the majority of non-payers.

You must be very naive to think the US doesn't have a war chest to counter the Chinese influence. Spending nearly half a billion means putting the foot down and making sure the Chinese don't get too comfortable.

The even bigger joke is on the unvaccinated who are waiting for a lung transplant if they made it that far.

It's simple. Let them hire freely and they will do business in the Bahamas. The truth is that any business is better than no business and this will create jobs for Bahamians and bring revenue.

The Tribune should lock comments on any of these articles. It's infuriating reading these comments that actively prolong the pandemic. Get your vaccine and get back to life!

Every other country on the planet shows the same, yet you claim it's all a conspiracy. All made up right? The reality is that vaccines work and you are wrong, deadly wrong. You are the problem! The ones who are vaccinated are the solution. You keep on insulting people who spent decades in their field. Everyone who is an actual expert disagrees with you, every one! Worldwide, everywhere. It's not even close. How wrong can you be?

These vaccines have gone through real world testing in the literal billions. 99.9% of experts (not Facebook moms) agree that they are safe and effective. The majority of reasonable and well informed people have run out of patience with this insulting and selfish behavior. Get vaccinated!
