If we, the Bahamian Peoples elect a corrupt, corrupted and shamless government then we can only expect corruption at it fullest. So you have a problem with it??

minister halkitis, this where the vat money gone !!!!!!

If you cannot win the lottery in the USA, no problem man, just come to the Bahamas. Why are we complaining, its just the cost of a modern day change of company name and old time corruption.

It would appear that the same names of persons who have screwed the Bahamian people under the pretense of serving the people in government keep popping up in these unethical, immortal and corrupt revelations. The cost of these revelations like all the others will be borne by the people through increases in the costs of services. Imagine if they were allowed to do this with government agencies what have been done to individuals businesses. We are experiencing some of it now with the Banking high fees and the unwillingness of the Banking Industry to grant necessary loans. real bahamiam patriots. It is more interesting that the Media seem to seek these individuals out for their opinions on pressing national events and News.

The Ministry of Tourism need to take the lead and assemble a pool of Business people, Cultural people, Local Architects and based on the current real statistics and desired improvements results present a plan with drawings and projections of the increase in Tourist guest and improved economic benefits to the Bahamas and Bahamian people. Once formulated, it should be presented to the public for comments and enhancing suggestions so that every Bahamian will be able to feel a part of it. The forgotten Bahamian asset is always the friendly people, so it should include the interaction of the people ( Tourist Ambassadors ).

Forbes representatives must have heard through the grapewine that 'all beach front properties in the bahamas" were created for the foriengers and they can charge the local Bahamians a fee to view them from a distance.

Like a cancelled cheque, yesterday's news, Lets move forward and upward together. its the people's time !!!!

Alfalfa, Agree but may be toooo much for our new AG.

In the real Banking world, if a securitized loan goes delinquent, the collateral is repossessed and sold off and the funds applied to the loan balance. if the monies realized from the sale are insufficient to totally liquidate the loan, the individual or individuals who were signatures on the loan are responsible for payment of the deficiency balance. Why are these individuals not taken to court and have them declared insolvent, and liquidate all of their assets to recover the loan in full. why is it that the poor people of the Bahamas now must pay for these financial scumbags to go free as a birdie. Since the Bahamian people have to pay to carry the debt service on these worthless paper loans, every Loan approval has a memo signed of by the loan officer Management and in some cases the board of directors stating the purpose, how it will be paid off and maturity date and referrals and recommendations.These documents should be made public. It appears that the Board of Directors, the management and Loan officers of this bank did the Bahamian people a gross disservice and should be barred from rendering any kind of service in the Bahamas Financial Industry again.

If the law provide that the PM can set a date for all delinquent or incomplete disclosures from past and current MPs and Senators in this case June 30 2017 and irregardless if the chairman just remembered that his term expired 0n June 30 2017, if the disclosures have not been received and completed, then the names need to be disclosed and sent to someone other that Carl Bethel to be prosecuted period. PM Minnis need to establish now and here that what he says what he means Period.
