The Cruise line group should not be allowed to operate the Nassau cruise port, Thats like the Airlines operating the Lynden Pindling Int Airport....Big time conflict of interest. What will happen when other cruise lines who are not apart of the ncl rcl, Carnival, Disney group want to call at Nassau. Will they be given the same benefits as this group if they Win ?. , ,Which cruise line itinearary will be given priority for birthing schedules. .With all the details in the public domain, This group (Global Port Holdings) has a far superior bid that touches all crucial points and covers all the necessary basis for effectively Managing, Operating, Spreading the wealth to the average Bahamian, and vastly improving the infrastructure and taking the Nassau port well into the 21 century. Global Ports should win hands down. Operating Cruise ports is what Global Ports does. The cruise lines should stick to their Business and let a port operator like global run the port. The committee will be wise in this recommendation to the Government.

On Best choice is clear to me

More details needed.....This article says nothings about the exact break down of equity ownership if this group wins. because Providence Advisors, which touted itself as representing 45,000 Bahamian pensioners is heading this group This is not direct individual Bahamian ownership....along with its partners namely Metro, PHD engineers, IDEA and its investment Bank ...who seams to be coming in from outside and co-opting the whole thing for their benefit......what about the equity distribution for the small man ? . Taxi drivers, artisans, hair braiders, straw vendors, surrey drivers may get more touristic traffic flow than they get today but will they be given the opportunity to purchase shares like the Global port holding proposal is offering?
