That's reported cases. A lot of people don't get tested who have symptoms and you also have people who are asymptomatic. Also, the government tends to downplay the problem. So, I doubt he is being alarmist. I believe things are trekking in the wrong direction and he's talking now to make people aware so that they can protect themselves which would assist in reducing the spread.
Black people don't swim?! I don't recall ever seeing black people in knee deep water doing selfies. I guess any other group wouldn't do selfish at a beach.
We Need to stop focusing on large hotel properties and shift our focus to small Bahamian owned boutique hotels. In the economic context these would be more beneficial to the Bahamas than large resorts.
I didn't hear the statement from DeSantis but I'm guessing he's just making a bad example. But, we have to keep in mind DeSantis is an idiot. Also, given the over reaction by Israel, no one should be condoning their acts now. Killing innocent Palestinians in retaliation should be condemned in the strongest terms. People need to grow some kahones and tell Israel they're wrong for what they have done to innocent Palestinians. Two wrongs don't make a right.
Small point on the article title. It should be "Petty allegations" not "petty allegations". I'm guessing no one proofreads here. Lol.
The PM should have an investigation here. Historically they all on paper do these but don't really do much to look for something but do it for the optics. It appears that the PM isn't even concerned about the optics.
I doubt the IMF is looking at this on a granular level. It's concerning that there is such a discrepancy in the numbers on the deficit. That needs to be explained by the government. To be fair, no government has done a good job in managing the country's books. The truth of the matter is the government needs to reduce the size of the public service. No government has the testicular fortitude to make this call. One important note, any ideas to be implemented needs to be what make sense within out context. The IMF can give suggestions, however it's a bit dangerous yo implement wholesale any ideas they suggest as there could be specifics on the ground that they can not fully appreciate and you run the risk of creating issues locally. We have brilliant minds locally that can help the government improve, but they have to.lsiten and put aside egos and personal.agendas.
The Commissioner may be right in hos assessment here but I think it's inappropriate for him to make such commentary in the media regarding an open investigation. Seems grossly unprofessional.
Mr. Moultrie makes a good point. Nut, the point is too narrow. All members should be honorable. There should be checks into all of them. Don't grab the waste time with the side orders, go after the entrees.
It's a little strange that he wouldn't have a savings account. I suspect he does have one or a checking account but perhaps he doesn't want to disclose for whatever reason, either low balance or an overdraft checking account. It's a bit difficult to do business as a professional and not have a bank account. On the COI candidate, that guy is a joke. He should be doing comedy, not taken seriously politically. It's true we need fresh blood in politics. But, we don't need an opportunistic idiot either.
