happyfly...let not forget $0 for schools, parks, roads, electricity, water, airport upgrades, cultural centers, hospitals, housing for the staff, affordable lots for Bahamians to create a sustainable community....or nothing at all to enhance the quality of life for Bahamians.
These are essentially jobs made for the migrant working class at the bottom of the food chain and the elite foreigners and overseas corporate offices where all the profits are skimmed off the top leaving little for anything else.
Exuma is being sucked dry ... move along now, nothing more to see hear ... nothing here for the locals. The political and legal class in Nassau wins along with its foreign investors.
What is the sense of the Tribune publishing one side of the economic story and then in another story feature crime which is created by ppl living hopeless lives.
Is my interpretation of this correct? JDL receives the package and charges a fee of 20 cents/lbs to replicate the weight and dimensions of every single air freight parcel arriving in Nassau. And if freight forwarding companies don’t pay them they will detain third party shipments and revoke a business license?
… I say replicate because the freight forwarder performs this procedure at their receiving facilities in Florida
… one additional and unnecessary step and sweetheart deal increasing inflation in the Bahamas

SunOil will soon have a monopoly in gasoline retail. As it has a monopoly in oil imports, electrical generation and the electrical grill.
Get ready for even higher electrical bills and gas prices. It will be gradual but certain.
Those who can afford to go solar need to start now. Including electrical cars plugged into your solar panels.
Unfortunately solar systems are costly and the monopolist and their facilitators know this.
