They don't need "foreign" inspectors, accomplished Bahamian aviation techs and pilots both with international training and experience have enquired at the Flight Standards Inspectorate, the pay scale is abysmal, so those who're happy to just land a job (or whose MP made a call) end up as "Inspectors". A casual walk around General Aviation and yes, the major local carriers would raise the hackles on any competent inspector..... to date its been light aircraft going tits up, but time longer than rope.

My RBC "client card" is still magstripe only, Whereas all my other local bank cards have smart chips, which thwart the skimming practice.... RBC is so busy shrinking itself to maintain huge profit, its not securing its clients.

agreed, we're long overdue in this space.

You don't know what you're talking about, bud. Stop posting hastily googled numbers as support for your baseless opinions... you are aware of the Bahamas shipping registry, are you not? Start there for research and come back actually prepared. So sick of these shallow, useless political tools cluttering what could be a stimulating comment space.

Just came from RBC making a deposit. Teller tells me there will be a $2.97 charge for depositing using a teller, since the ATM is free. Of course ATM deposits of any significant sum have a 2-day hold..... yep, that sounds fair...This is a fee for me putting CASH into their hands...

this birdie need to carry their stupid arse. The AG & his dept were wrong to present this draft bill internationally without it being publicly viewable on govt law websites at least... but comment on that Birdie, stop running on with mindless PLP or nuttin rhetoric, we over that sht, believe dat.

My RPP was doubled under this previous PLP administration, with not so much as a breakdown in zoning, rates, or policy. I assume it was their typical 'rape the tax paying middle class to extinction and gee the poor voting base a break' policy.I initiated the protest procedure, replete with current appraisals in February of this year, have yet to hear anything from them, probably still out to lunch.

When will you stop being such an arse? Do you or do you not take issue with Christie carrying a debt of $23,432.51, while the Bahamians he 'served' are disconnected for $200? Which is it? don't veer off course!

for once.... i agree with Tal.
