Wow! how to help an ailing tourist industry in a country with the best beaches in the world, hmmm, let's see...
Here's a fun tip for you: try allowing Uber, Bolt, Lyft or any other reputable ride hailing service to provide efficient car rides for tourists, instead of bending over for the endlessly whining, rotten service providing taxi "industry" and their ridiculous, unregulated, broken down dangerous vehicles and rotten attitudes.
Second fun tip: Try reigning in the wild, out of control jetski violence and drug gangs who prey on unsuspecting tourists on beaches throughout the Bahamas. Perhaps you could encourage the enforcement of laws that prevent murder, violence, beatings, rape, and drug dealing as I don't think most tourists come to our beaches to be robbed at gunpoint while watching their loved ones being attacked.
Hope these tips help rejuvenate the tourist industry and all the best!
So tell me again why we, the paying public, are forced to endure these crybabies, their broken down "taxis"and endless whining while the rest of the world enjoys the freedom, convenience and ubiquitous availability of Uber, Lyft, Bolt and many other professionally operated ride share companies. Anyone??
"water sports and tour operators"?? Do you mean the out of control drug and violence gangs that roam Bahamian beaches looking for tourists to beat, rob, rape and burglarize? lmfao
Maybe you'd be able to afford private school for your kid if you stopped ruining the reputation of my country by being a conduit for endless violent attacks.
Go to other countries and see how many wild, lawless, out of control drug gangs are blasting 2 feet from the beach on jetskis while picking up naive people and leaving them stranded on remote islands for hours unless they,,,,, Ill give you hint, there aren't any, laws are enforced and out of control drug gangs are arrested. But not here...
Good god, someone put a stop to this madness. Victimised?? give your head a shake man
As long as the gambling underworld controls the financial system in this country you can forget about any kind of "alternative banking system" getting any kind of traction.
Potholes the size of tank traps everywhere, traffic lights on bay street don't work but lots of new bentleys on the street,....hmmm
Funniest thing I've read this week! Hey, want to eliminate the crime and mayhem caused by JetSki "operators"? Simple, Ban Jetskis!!
Many countries and jurisdictions have done this, and guess what their tourist numbers have risen and statisfaction levels have increased
Turned the Corner, good god, what other country would tolerate the insane, violent assault on our tourist base by a completely out of control gang of thugs?
Inmates are running the asylum! Turned the Corner!! hahahahhahahahahahah
Tell me again why the Bahamas is the only country in the world that doesn't allow UBER? Oh yeah, mouths to feed etc. Funny how rotten, disgusting, drunken, foul taxi drivers and their broken down, unsafe "vehicles" are allowed free reign in this country but any attempt at introducing safe, reliable, clean, efficient ride hailing services are shot down. Seems weird, n'est-ce pas? oops, sorry, you geniuses don't speak french now do you?
Has it occured to the Waynester that the lovely "jetski operators" might just take the cameras away from the tourists before proceeding to rob, beat, rape and further assault them?
