LOL. Is his pastor a tax lawyer?
Also I would like to know who these couriers are to ensure that the duties I pay go to the govt.
well it is noted that this issue did not attract many comments. Bahamians do not care about foreigners.
The tribune has published over the years numerous accounts of discrimination against foreign spouses of bahamians or the so called paper bahamians and no one does anything to change the situation.
these foreign contractors are even more removed from this situation.
A former employer of mine was once sub for a foreign contractor and the top boss came to the bahamas to resolve some outstanding issues, he was incredulous to see that the difficulties of doing business were real. he said his company would never again do business in the Bahamas. that was in 1993.
the owners or managers of an organization are aware of deficiencies and ignore repeated calls from the staff to improve this or that.
when a client complains, they tell the client they will 'investigate' and ask the subordinates for a 'report'. One time I just had to change the date on a previous report because none of the past issues had been addressed so the report was produced in two days. On the conclusion of the meeting to discuss the report, the boss handed the report to the office manager and walked out of the room, as if to show us that he was doing nothing about it..
If the client persists in coming, the boss then will call me and other employees and embarrass us by asking the client to repeat the complaint in front of us. from then on the boss will tell the client to 'speak to mrs. X.' or just say 'I will speak to Mrs. X'
First time i witnessed this i thought the boss was senile or crazy. years in the work force have now shown me that regardless of the nature of the organization or age of the boss, it is just contempt shown to the client. it is just widespread.

A senior civil servant should not be in a state of financial embarrassment and should pay his bills. General orders require that.
Just shows the level of corruption in this country.

typical of how things are run in the bahamas
the owners or managers of an organization are aware of deficiencies and ignore repeated calls from the staff to improve this or that.

One time I just had to change the date on a previous report because none of the past issues had been addressed so the report was produced in two days.
