We need to memorialize this infamous hurricane ……. a tangible memorial to the unknown victims is an appropriate gesture, along with a gravesite of other named victims.

No need to politicize this matter any further.

It is Gravy Davis party now ……… Has Putin entertained the children and grandchildren of the old Soviet bosses to challenge him???? …… Or the same in China or Cuba??? …… Strongmen do not want the spawn of the dead heroes hanging over their heads.

That is the problem, John …….. it seems that parallel protocols have become almost "policy" in many Govt Depts ……… slackness, kickbacks and unproductivity has become a cultural norm ……. now everyone hollering when the proper rules are enforced …….. Wonder why??????

Marlon Johnson is the Bahamian Financial Controller ……. he is the chief financial advisor to the Government, including KPT ……. He has a voice as powerful as the CB Chief, the Sec to the Cabinet, the CJ, the AudGen or the AG ……. But we seem to want to elevate transient (mostly unlearned rookies) politicians in a secret Cabinet above our professional technocrats ……. Now, if you are questioning the FO's expertise or independence, that is another issue.

John, don't be a hater ……… It is Marlon Johnson's job to crunch the numbers and observe the pitfalls …….. KPT is a politician with a third rate business degree from Praire View …… Customs officers are civil servants who should not be moonlighting (case closed).

Can anyone at WSC or BPL really justify their salaries and perks when it comes to their level of education, work ethic or productivity (per capita)?????? ………. as compared to the other college-educated civil service foot soldiers who earn "peanuts" for their labour???? ……… The "plantation" reference should be used elsewhere rather than referencing these entitled SOEs.

What a broken system of "democratic" Government ………. A HUGE crisis that The People seem not to care about because of the bells & whistles and smoke & mirrors being thrown at them from the social media camps of each of the TWO broken political party camps …… a kleptocracy with token elections every five years.

Well said ………… not the first time that the Minister has run roughshod over the Police Service Commission OR the Public Service Commission …….. This Executive abuse by Cabinet Ministers must stop, but either the PM is ignorant, supports it, or he is powerless to stop it.

Agreed ……. the Nassau political oligarchy has colonized the rest of the Out Islands

Porcupine …….. that is the problem with all of these Nassau & GB people who believe that they have the answer for we Out Islanders ……. SMT
