Add to this, a politicized and corrupt police force that works with the same gangs terrorizing Bahamians, the same gangs who control the illegal activity at the ports, the corrupt immigration, customs and trade officials/workers allowing the trafficking of people, the smuggling of goods, firearms and drugs.
The straw market vendors rent space from the government in a venue built expressly for them, in the choicest of locations to capture sales from incoming tourists for them. And they pay an extremely low rate of rent.
No administration has ever met their demands. When they don’t pay their rent and are pressured to do so, and or are facing eviction they go to the press. When they need to accommodate customers using credit cards they complain about the cost, is the gov’t to pay this too? When they have to use their own phones for internet they complain. And one can presume that if the government installed wifi and added that fee to their rent, their complaints would appear here. Again.
What happened to the projects started by the Minnis government for affordable housing in Nassau that Davis & Co stopped ‘to do it better’? Have any been turned over to qualified owners??
Migrafill has been contracted before and like the other service providers they all had the same failures.
Those who wonder just what the heck is going on should understand that none of these companies can work properly while the RBPF remains corrupted by officers that work for moneyed interests in the smuggling of drugs, firearms, people, whatever.
I remember the articles here citing the high number of homicides of those out on bail and whose bodies were found still wearing their monitors. The police said about 85% of those monitored wear/charge their monitors correctly and 40% of these were being murdered.
So it appears to me that if I was a corrupt officer, part of a gang of such employed as ‘hit men’ for criminal interests, (a report that gains credence with every police shooting labeled homicide) what’s the easiest way to discover the whereabouts of my target-if he’s out on bail?
And that is the simplest and logical answer why none of these companies have had the success of their counterparts in other countries. And let us please recall that every time the PLP comes into power the murder rate increases!
Ole Chester is head of this country’s most important industry yet he’s not talked to a tourist in at least 20 years. For that’s when I first heard tourists/cruisers tell that same tale which they ignored to venture forth and explore!
