The existing plant at clifton pier will be upgraded to accomodate LNG. This will not be new rocket science, this has already been done in Jamaica and is already in the signed agreement. There will be no need for a parallel run with clifton's present equipment.

LNG at this time is not the perfect solution but it surly is a big step in the right direction. Think of the lower cost of electricity for all ....savings that can be spent otherwise by consumers in 18 months. The size and specifications for a solar renewable powerplant able to generate in over 250 megawatts of power for an island the size of Nassau would require thousands of acres of barren land, rooftop's or parking lots for such a installation ...with the advancement of technology in the renewable arena, the Bahamas can scale a renewable energy infrastructure using many sources in the near future but we haved creeped along with fossil fuels for decades , we are going to walk with LNG and we will run with renewables in the future as those technologies matures .....I commend the government the government for taking this next step with the projected cost being only 100 million dollars.

The Chinese are the modern day plunderers in many countries around the world. They have replaced the colonial European powers and are sapping the resources of scores of african, carribean and south american countries under the guise of developments with cheap loans that have payback stipulations at the united nations. The only diffidence between them and the colonial European powers is that they have the cheap labour component to achieve their objectives by stealth for the home land. Governments and citizens world wide in developing countries would do well to increase awareness to the rising dragon from the east and her philosophical belief and intentions for smaller countries

At this rate the Grand Lucayan deal will be concluded around the 2022 election date !

@Thisisours....i can see you are a far left supporter.

@Ashley14 .....exactly , Democracy is not perfect ...but its the best political system the world has. Thats why western countries are know as the free world. The average Bahamain can only imagine the horror the people syria and countries like North Korea go through daily. We have never lived through war I support trumps actions in syria 100%. because there will be escalated consequences every time chemical weapons are used in the future..

@Sheeprunner12 .....i agree with your statement, thats why i said there are proxy ways to achieve those types of objectives.....eg the use and supporting of rebel forces and opposition froces in various countries. Assad is a dictator who should be removed but America does not want to be in the that country for decades like how they are stuck in Afganistan, The middle east has cost America two trillion dollars over the last decade. Trumps prioties these days is to build america infastructure because china is leaving the USA behind when is comes to Infastructure

American seals will not take out leaders like Assad and Kim because their countries would fall into more uncertain hands. After Kadafiy in libya fell and Saddam in Iraq was removed from power, ISiS was born in the leadership vacume in those countries. ISIS is the reason the US and its allies has troops in syria today....America being the free world leader has international responsibilities to NOT be seen as a super power who uses its power to change government leaders and dictators as she see fits....unless there is an existential threat to the home land. .However there are proxy ways to achieve those types of objectives.

This Attack shows the difference between Trump and Obama.....Obama did not enforce his red lines. Trump knows his military capabilities and he aint afraid to use it....Despite his political problems at home in the USA, The world has come to realize that the chief in the white house is a cowboy who dont take no mess.. Assad will have his day soon in the world court for the war crimes he continues to commit.....But most importantly this attack sends a clear message to North Korea, and Iran...When Trump meets Kim maybe next month.., ,the North Korean leader will cower in fear when he realizes he is in the presence of a no no-nonsence president who heads a military that is ready to deny NK its objectives of a working delivery vehicle that can reach the united states. Trumps style may be unorthodox using twitter and all but he gets results.

Surport for the government may have slipped but this government still deserve high marks because turning this country around will take much more than one year. Look at the posiitives so far. 1) A Decision has been made and LNG will be a reality in 18 months thus resulting i lower electricity prices. 2) The gin developement is freeport is due to restart.4) A new marina for Harbour Island. 4)The redevelopment of the Hurricane Hole Marina.5) A Balanced Budget by the year 2020, 6)The commercial enterprise bill is Law and we will see the results in a few years.7) Speedy prosecution and repatrition of illigals immirgrants.8) Relocation of the main post Office is months away. 9) The new Bay Street broad walk construction has started. 10) The new providence land fill take over agreement coming in June. 12) Clifton pier is being bulk headed to prevent the oil leakage into the ocean.
I think the disgruntled folks in the survey are mostly the folks who expect government to be their Mr do it all but this is a five year race and i think the present government is getting good results so far .
