Yeah this stupid practice for the "ELITES" needs to be discontinued immediately. Look, elected officials are called to a higher standard. Not a LOWER one! No, they are not perfect, but they are there to set an example. NOT the example of what NOT to do! I work hard so that I can pay my bills on time. Pay your bills! Have you no shame? It's the amounts that disturb me the most. How do you let your bill accumulate so high? It shows a total disregard for what is right and what should be done. It also sets a horrible example to the rest of the general public.
Hold on though... this BEC official seems like they are speaking with pride about the 40% paying bribes to staff! What kind of lousy management is this? What other sensible company in The Bahamas will sit idly by and allow almost half their revenue to be siphoned away by criminal employees. am i missing something here?
Well this is certainly a start. Too much crap has been going on in this country for far too long... That is exactly how the rich get richer and the poor get poorer (by giving ALL the breaks to the people who need it least).
Agreed. If they put their mind to it, I think they can get it back on its feet. It should be THEIR choice. Like so many people who had to rebuild after Matthew, they can do it; many of whom I knew personally did it out of their own pockets without insurance or government assistance even though they were not wealthy.
One thing I noticed from the weather channel, it looks like 3 days of rain in Nassau. Saturday, Sunday, Monday... (I hope that Pinewood doesn't get too much water).<br/> The rain forecast was at the 2nd half of the video.
