The ministers comments are totally insane. It shows serious lack of intelligence and thought.
It is said it is best to keep your mouth closed and be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt. The minister just endorsed that with his ridiculous comments.
You raise the point that many in the media should be questioning the minister about. When did this go out to tender? How is it that China Construction wins the tender? WHo else submitted a tender?
We need serious journalists in this country who will ask the touch questions, and not just report the tribble from the mouths of these politicians.
What is so pathetic, is that major retailers in the country don not have prices listed visibly and you never hear about them in court, and this happens in a regular basis.
And even when they have prices listed, you get o the counter and discover that the price listed is different than the price that rings up at the register.
If the government had sense, they would just talk to the GBPA about how the GBPC was able to make electricity stable in Grand Bahama. Or maybe that is why they are trying to shake down the GBPA to get at the GBPC?
This government does not care about transparency and accountability.
When a cabinet minister can present an unaudited financial statement as proof and challenge against an audited statement from the auditor general, and the imbeciles in government can bang on the table applauding him for doing so; and then turn and disparage the auditor general, that speaks volumes about government transparency and accountability.

Price control really does not do their job.

Did they ever consider that what they offer on cable with all these Spanish channels is garbage to pay for?
I dropped Cable TV years ago and don''t miss it in the least.

Absolutely correct.
My thing is that if she felt it in her bones more than a decade ago, why didn't she do something!

We really need to stop printing the nonsensical comments of these brain dead people in the house of assembly.
Corruption runs rampant in this country and judges can be biased. No one is above being biased, especially when some judges are masons
