The comment was made that only 50% of boat owners register their boats for the first time and NEVER register them again. That was BEFORE this ridiculous law was passed.
If that is the case, and most of the small boats are owned by Family Islanders, then the Govt has a huge task with compliance with this new law now. It is defeating the purpose of increasing the ease of using maritime traffic and ensuring practical boat ownership among the Out Islands.
Why does a guy with a tin boat & 10HP need insurance, dry docking etc to go and catch a few grunts & conchs??
This is what our PLP government pays this man $60,000 to do .............. But, they won't pay trained teachers half of that to do a professional job in schools.
Much less hire other professionals to complement the teachers to deal with mal-adjusted students.
Our politicians prefer gimmicks over tried & true professionals.
Parenting is not perfect .......... there is no manual available for a newborn baby and its parents.
Parenting is a trial and error process that both parents MUST commit to working at in the best interest of the child. That is why this "baby mama/daddy" culture is a non-starter.
Parenting is much more than being a biological parent ............ it calls for a serious adult who is mature enough to deal with the challenges of raising a child to be a well-adjusted adult who can contribute to the community in which he/she lives.
Bahamians should support more local banks ..... But those banks need to support Family Islanders too. There are very few Bahamian owned banks in the Family Islands
This is a United Nations matter ............ Not 242, caricom or other regional body.
Notice how quiet the DR and Cuba are on the matter ......... and they have more resources and are closest to Haiti.
And what about the FIVE million Haitians who live outside of Haiti???? What are they doing to help the motherland??? .......... Biden's PR lady boss is a Haitian and she has little to say.
But, will the UN take up the challenge?????????? Based on past experience, probably not.
The G9 and the other gang leaders have to get together and rule Haiti now ...........
Sears created the House rules ............. he likes to jump up and try to explain the rules to the dumb Speaker every time that it is "violated" by the Opposition.
Now, it is time for him to apply the rules to himself ........ Or the PM

Public schools do not have to meet the same criteria as private schools when registering (online) with naecob.
So, why can't the Director get her Principals to comply?
She used to run Abaco. How many of the schools in Abaco are registered?????
On NAECOB: Only 35 percent of public schools are registered

Bahamian police are is desperate need of serious British or Canadian RCMP level training.
We are recruiting D average fellas, giving them 6 months training and putting them on the streets with guns.
