MR Johnson. now that the wind fall in vat revenue has began. Stick to the financial minister promise of beginning to reduce customs duty's in the next budget cycle before joining the wto. **start with the 65% duty on imported automobiles** That rate is one of the highest in the world.
This band wagon jumper got kicked out of the Bar ..then off the radio talk shows so he is now trying to big up a political party to gain favour in the hopes that he can get a contract to pay some bills the next time around.. He is very good at singing for his super weather it is writing or talking..
May God always protect the men and woman of the RBDF......how times changed...Three countries ..Three different names for their costal protection ...Cuban = Border patrol, Bahamas =Defence Force and United States = Coast Guard... and To think that May 10th 1980 could have been avoided if we had this knid of cooperation 38 years ago.!!
Scientists have identified 15 technologies — from wind, solar, hydro and nuclear energy to conservation techniques — that are ripe for large-scale use and showed that each could solve a significant portion of the problem. Their analysis, indicates that many combinations of these 15 technologies could prevent global emissions of greenhouse gasses from rising for the next five decades. All it takes is for the IPCC to be given teeth with enforcement of new climate change legislation.for all countries, especially the two biggest causes of climate change in the world the USA and China.. Sadly with world leaders like Trump in the white house,bowing to special fossell fuel interest the inevitable rollback is being postponed.
i share your concerns and i would like to add that the Shirley Street post office where i go weekly is in a deplorable state with garbage piles shrewn all over the front lawn where you go up the steps to go inside. This has been the state for weeks and i have pointed it out to the workers inside. Their answers are always the gov this, the gov that ...but what about self pride. The staff there should put on gloves and do a five min trash pickup once a week. until they get a handy man. No harm to them.
i have said over and over. The second and third generation of the founders of the GBPA lack the foresight and Vision of their parents. Without vision the people will perish. so goes the city of freeport
I dont think short of cities in a war zone have a city economy shrunk and went down hill as fast and as badly as freeport has.....It begs me to ask the question ...Why has the city and people of Freeport been forsaken ??? .....from one issue to the next......when one thinks it cant get worse....it gets worser with this sunwing departture.....my god what is next ????
The BNT should make sure their are no stipulations in the agreement with Albany or bending of the fishing or conservation rules that are in the national park for the benefit of the elite folks from Albany of any where eylse for that matter. There are many international philantropic organizations around the world who would gladly partner with the BNT to help finance the upkeep of the many national parks in the Bahamas. All they require is an application of interest request. I can assure anyone reading this that Albany will be looking for something more than recreation as a return on their investment in the Exuma land and sea park.
Not paying back is a PLP allowed culture ingrained in its supporters over the years. It stretches from the small supporters to the sitting MP's. How in the world can you run a government or country like that.?
