The Bahamian authority could not apprehend the Number Houses cartels because of being on their payroll and instead regularized the criminal industry against the wishes of the Bahamian people. Now we want to believe the the Bahamian Authority will apprehend the wealthy drug Cartels trafficking Illegal drugs through the Bahamas, when a number of High ranking authority's are awaiting trail in America for collecting large amounts of money to facilitate the guaranteed safe passage of large amounts of illegal drugs through the Bahamas to America?. We are witnessing and realizing the results of electing persons with Successful Criminal backgrounds to move forward. Do we want to establish a safe haven for the wealthy South American Illegal Drug Cartels to operate from and to support our economy???

This is sickening and demeaning indeed. Yet again another one of our ill citizens in the Family islands (treated like OUT islands) have to be transferred from a health facility in the back of a truck in heavy rain and bad weather to a location to get help. When is enough, enough!!

if the victim said that the person was selling a tour and jet ski package and she and her friend later used the jet skis then was it his jet skis or a legitimate licensed jet ski operator that he was connected with and authorized to sell the jet ski package?. Does jet ski marketing and sales agents have to be registered and licensed??

Maybe we need laws for politicians who put our children up as collateral for borrowing money to spend like drunken sailors without any intentions of paying these loans back.
We have been conditioned to only think of the present, ourselves and the hell with our children, the result of God's Blessings??

Oh yeah, since the horrible Minister said the VAT money was used to build new schools, only no one could find the schools and the changed to something else and something else, the VAT money was used to reduce the national debt, the purpose for which it was implemented by the corrupt christie govenment, now the VAT money cannot even pay the interest on the national debt.!!!

This is a repeat of " where the Billion dollars V.A.T. money done gone" under the most corrupt Christie government. Look like political party cannot wait for this fellow to be elected and officially made the " conduit" of the peoples hard earned high taxes. Said the V.A.T. funds were used to build schools but nobody could find the schools, so then he changed and said the V.A.T money was used to repair existing schools. Now he at it again with the $700,000,000.00 National Investment Funds money, and like "poof" the money gone up in smoke again???
Maybe he needs another one-on-one interview with the intelligent, honest and straight forward news executive again. Before he has to answer some other questions?????

The Nations Government, Minister of Finance, rising in the Peoples and nation's" House of Assembly and stating the $700 Millions of the peoples money was transferred in a National Investment Fund (nif) account, that legally does not exist, is shameful and show disrespect for the Nations citizens and the global Financial Markets.

unfortunately Bahamian are exhibiting every day that their individual feelings are the only thing that matters and the hell with those feeling produce. Consequently, our children are suffering and with very little hope for the future. Everything that would contribute to citizens feeling and being independent are being taken away by the ones we chose to lead us to better lives.
Instead of mandating Banks to provide banking services to encourage our young people to open accounts and save their money( which is a key to independence), the politicians are encouraging our young people to wager their money and future on the spinning machines of the Number Houses and after one moment of excitement leave a lifetime future of depression and failure and then have to look for handouts from the number houses cartels to survive.
Wake up and try have our children be better persons than we are!!!

Maybe we should plan for the worst scenario's before giving assurances ( which is elementary in a planning process). It was a pre general election statement and votes were needed though!

The government is providing the best education for the majority underprivileged children as they want too, with all their children attend Private schools, with smaller class rooms, mostly highly qualified foreign teachers with all the necessary supplies and equipment and social etiquette environment in preparation for higher education levels aboard. The government schools "D " average has been the norm for 53 years and we are okay with it?????!!!!!!
