This has to be a joke right? Who leaves the US or Canada with better living and pay accommodations to come to The Bahamas with is high cost of living and low pay? And that is where they are going to recruit. Wow!

Amazing how government could always find tax breaks for foreigners, but then always finding ways to tax the citizens.

Maybe if NIB is not used as the slush fund for the government and all these big contracts not be given to these directors, then we can see the fund not have this deficit.

Ditto.

People have to real lack intelligence to talk about wanting a leader like that.

What puzzles me is that the Minister don't want to call then D average, but yet she give statistics talks about how many got subjects with at least a D. So what gives.

26 in Cabinet and the other give ambassador or some other board director position.

So are there really even any back benchers to begin with?

Is this serious? Only in The Bahamas, people can do nonsense like this.

What does it mean his name, photograph and personal history is closely aligned? Either is is him or is not. Stop the ambiguities that can malign people.
