.... gotta love when they mix race, politics, legacy, UBP, PLP, foreigners, history .... much better entertainment than fixing Freeport Power ... let the lights go off ... break out the candles

... pindling told GBPA "bend or break" ... a half century later GBPA ain ben or broke ... in fact they are worth billions of dollars in land and industry ... but black bahamians still catchin hell

... once PLP take over Grand Bahama Power then we change from GBPA/foreign to Frankie, Shell, Focal, bec, bpl, Pike, Public/very private partnerships with you know who, high nasty bunker C diesel, no renewable energy, high prices, bad service and unfriendly if not hostile government who show contempt for ppl

Plenty crazies in da 242

Spot on the FNM will loose the election b/c the opposition is split 2 and in the case of Kilnary 3 ways.

Check out Golden Isle by election results

plp 1873, fnm 1,637, coi 352

fnm + coi = 2,025

So I ain ga risk my PLP contracts by supporting the FNM and COI.

observer2 says...

Government is the biggest business … $3.9 billion dollars budget. Everyone has to deal with them

observer2 says...

yes, I agree, the FNM created the PMH mess.

Now that that has been established, voting PLP will correct this problem.

I am being cynical

Wow, this is excellent news and relief for Grand Bahamians proving that the PLP has come through for Grand Bahamians. We must all now vote PLP to make this happen.

Once the government purchase of the electrical plant and infrastructure is completed, Grand Bahamians can look forward to the perfect track record of BPL of providing reliable and cost effective electricity and renewable energy similar to what is being experienced in Long Island, Crooked Island, Ragged Island and Eleuthera.

Freeport, once the PLP wins the next election is definitely on the way back to its boom town days. Gone are the days of major project failures. Let me just name some:

The Royal Oasis (Princess Resort) Ginn Sur Mer (West End) The Grand Lucayan Resort Oban Energies (The Oil Refinery Scandal) 2018 "Tech Hub" Initiative: Starting around 2018 - the "Silicon Valley of the Caribbean." Freeport Airport Expansion GBPA

... but in case you vote FNM they will be able to deliver for Grand Bahama as well ...

... am sorry, i don't get it, why would Robert Dupuch-Carron be buying 50 ambulances for the family islands? Assuming a cost of $100,000 each x 50 ambulances = $5,000,000.

.... i can't see the make and model of the ambulances so I assume they are from a European manufacturer which doesn't have a dealership in Nassau so where are the spare parts gonna come from? where is the maintenance gonna come from? has the government budgeted for their maintenance? have driver's been trained? ok, 6 have arrived, where are the other 44? when will they get to the family islands? before the election? I only see one in the picture? where are the other 5?

and where did all this money come from, is there quiproquo or murky linkage to other contracts? or is it being done out of the goodness of Roberts heart? is it related to his running for parliament? or are we as Bahamian so desensitized that appearances of corruption are now normalized?
