Isn’t it significant that after fifty years of “Independence” and Majority Rule that a white face with financial resources is still the yardstick.

"“We now have a world-class, brand-new cruise port at the Port of Nassau. It is a stunning achievement that we are happy to have at our most popular entry-way." said Cooper.

Is this the same wonderous word class port Keith Bell & Birdie Strachan have been running down as the worst deal ever made for the Bahamas? Granted, both of them are well known for speaking through their nether orifices.

@bahamianson, you obviously know little to nothing about Abaco and Abaconians.
Left to their own devices and able to self govern themselves, and given their proximity too and American family affiliations, they would be miles ahead of the rest of the country had they been successful in their succession.

Did this unfortunate woman have scuba certification? Are the dives at Pearl Island overseen by a certified dive master? Or are they just renting out tanks to anyone without them having to provide their certification card?
The waters around Pearl Island are less than twenty feet deep for the most part so no decompression would be required for a single tank dive, was she wearing a BC, did she have a buddy?
Some of these fly by night operators who have no insurance need to be made examples of and held legally accountable.

This is what happens when you sing off key to many times, you’re asked to leave the choir, one sour or flat note too many!
Wonderful how the political safety net is always available for incompetent lackeys.
