What amazes me is the hypocrisy surrounding this piece of privately owned land. It has been on the market for years and no one saw fit to purchase it in order to "preserve" it.Typical Bahamian response. We wont invest our money in it but please dont let the foreigner invest in it.
Excellent point stillwaters. We have been conditioned for too long that the gov is our savior. Bahamians expect the gov to do for them from the cradle to the grave. I am not a fan of political parties,but I do believe we have a fighting chance with this gov. They seem to not be bowing to all the special interest groups. They seem to be prepared to make the tough decisions that should have been made years ago.
Fred smith can't lose is because he is the only one that gets paid. He did the same thing with the large project in abaco and lost the court battle but walked away with a handsome sum.
Bahamianforbahamas. There don't need to be any spin here. If you would just take off your yellow glasses of political thinking you would see through the threats by sunwing looking to extort from the government. It's about time we tell these investors that the gravy train is off the track.
Economist. You are on the right track. It makes no business sense to pull out if you are making money. It's quite clear that they were trying to extort some better concessions but the government told them it can't happen.
