Is this actually true or is Belinda being Belinda again? First of all, if they could not speak English well.how did they get past an interview? Seems a bit odd.

Let me see, we have a low national average. What is it now, D-, E+, G#? It's a failure for years. Now we have a teaching shortage. Ok! We have to go outside the country to fill that shortage. Wow! So, thanks Belinda for pointing out a complaint you got but how about coming up with a solution. Can you be a problem solver and not a problem?

Why we have a police officer leading an investigation into another officer? We need an independent body looking into police matters in order to get some resolution. Too many officers have a gangster mentality. This officer needs to go to jail. You can't behave like the guys you lock up and be allowed to roam the street.

There have been problems with jet ski operators and there probably still are. But, let's assume that all.of them are not involved in illegal activity. With regards to the article, Baha Mar is clearly bullying them. To be certain at a later date they will try to ban them permanently.

We all know these major resorts are anti-Bahamian. So, let's not celebrate the bullying and the discrimination. If a jet ski operator has committed a crime there are laws that govern that. Baha Mar didn't say that incidents occurred there and they were taking action. This is simply the beginning of their banning them. There is a legalz fair process that exists to address this fairly to all.involved. Don't sit and simply criticize the jet ski operators. We sit back too often and watch apartheid like behavior go on in our country.

Interesting! Does this mean all those persons with outstanding warrants for criminal and civil matter are going to be picked up at this time? It seems the police don't do arrest warrants like they should.

So the University of the Bahamas is training future leaders some of which will be auditors but they haven't learnt the very things they impart to their students. How do you say with a straight face you are years behind? How do you have a board and the board allows for this behavior? Isn't the board supposed to provide oversight? People should be fired and fines levied.

Interesting! I agree with Porcupine. From a business perspective it doesn't make sense for one part of the process to be allowed to slow down the whole process. I'm sure if the airlines started complaining, if their pockets are impacted, this would be fixed. The US government understands to place nice with large US corporations.

So they're taking about two months off. Interesting! BPL falling apart. Crime is out of control. Cost of.kiving is extremely high. There's no government business that needs to be done during this time off to address these items.

They passed a lot of legislation according to this article. Perhaps the top ten should have been listed. Both sides of the aisle are good with story telling. We need governments that actually move the country forward.

I haven't been following this discussion fully but I hope they carefully the legislation where a victim ismt only considered to be women. Although, women more than men would be victims of gender violence, men can also be as well.

The passports are missing but the statement says they didn't leave the office. How are they missing but they know they are still.there? Someone needs to.ask that. Surely if they can't be found, you can not say they haven't left the premises.

Baha Mar sits on a large parcel of Crown Land for free and now Graeme Davis complains about BPL prices? There are a lot of poor black Bahamians who can't afford food let alone electricity and we focus our attention to publish when a mega hotel resort decides to complain about BPL pricing. So when black John and Mary complain that ain't important but when a white foreign businessman complains we need to stand at attention. Keep in mind this same resort that we gave Bahamian land to don't want our kind on their property unless we apply for the servant jobs. So, let's not cry boo hoo for Baha Mar. We see Atlantis bullying people on Paradise Island. Let's look.at the whole picture people.
