Organized sports is on life support in the Out Islands. For the most part, there has been almost NO Government investment in physical sporting facilities or organizational succession planning for 20 years. MOE/YSC programs have not actively included FI development, except for a few struggling school or community tournaments. There are very few MOYSC programs/leaders that exist to build the 18-30 year old interest in the FI with local sponsors. So, this bright idea to revive the Bahamas Games is far fetch. Maybe, Bowleg has a plan to use Nassau residents who claim island roots to represent these Out Islands in these Games. God knows how it will be done in less than 2 years.
Yep ......... we depend on them for tourism numbers and not the other way around. USA holds the trump card against 242 in every sense of the word. We are at the mercy of USA, China and Europe ......... But Fweddy can try
Wilson made it hard for the FNM and now will do the same for the PLP in terms of opening of school during Covid. Her filibustering attitude and unreasonable requests of MOE that stemmed from her personal spats with Lloyd & Taylor has made it even more difficult to improve an already broken public education system. Now, it's her vs her old union nemesis (Zane).
The reality is that whether it was PLP or FNM in power, that project was going to take a long time to materialize.
That area is better left as a wildlife & drainage zone, rather than pouring untold millions of Govt money into an area that no one is really sure what it will eventually cost to develop this virgin area into decent, safe upscale housing.
The 242 official stats on Covid has to be far from right. If only about 700 ppl died of Covid in such an unhealthy, ill disciplined population, that should be applauded. Either way, climate change is a bigger threat than COVID-19.
This is in the news because it was Doc & Brent ......... But I am sure that there are hundreds of similar leases out there between PEPs and the Government with far greater costs per square foot. Again, there is NO transparency by the PLP or FNM ......... She is trying to make brownie points, even though Doc had communicated ALL of the PO details on the contract in the House of Assembly.
Forbes needs to answer WHY is it that these experimental Covid vaccines are still being used worldwide, despite the threshold of vaccine-related deaths being exceeded? This has not been the SOP in the history of vaccines & public health. What makes COVID-19 different from flu, smallpox, measles, diphtheria etc???? ..... Pray tell
