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.
I'm not sure if this is a good way to go with pricing. If you look at the lack of.interest for most people in government stock, this would result in perhaps a lower than par pricing. If you take into account what happens in the equity market locally, every so often someone shows up to the table offering shares way below current market value which results in a dramatic drop in other people's portfolios simply.because they probably need back to school money. I think his suggestion works in a more mature investment environment, not here.
And to the points.made in the comments above, a lot of people are not going to.invest large amounts of their wealth in government securities as they fear a potential default as some point.
You can list thousand of names for jury duty in the papers. You can send real property tax Bill's without missing a beat but you can't provide a list of who you gave contracts to? Really?! It's that complicated a process. You're awarding contracts to every Indian China and India aye? It can't be hundreds of contracts that takes forever and forever to get information on.
Let's be clear, Mr. Wilson has no intention of providing t bi is information. If this was done the public will see just what skulduggery this administration is up to. This going into that same bs pile of the $120 million a year "error" unaddressed for decades.
I think Mr. Munrow gave a good idea here. I'm a little surprised that a sitting politician in the governing party responsible for the very area being accused is suggesting this. Either I'm missing something or he's taking a very politically mature and fair posture. He probably wasn't taken to the usual political schools of most of the people around him and before him. Bravo!
I find this story off as well. Security officers are not armed. So, they are not much of a deterrent. Every family island have police officers stationed there. The government just needs to use the police resources already on island or are these 162 security officers just a smokescreen to slip some money.
What kind of bs is this? How does this abuse go undetected or better yet unaddressed for years. Simple checks and balances. Why is there always a story why money walked out the door? Everybody involved from the PM all the way down the line needs to be fired. Anyone who received payment that they clearly knew they shouldn't have should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
We're running deficit after deficit every year because of a huge civil service payroll. Now we hear this bs about error. Error my backside! This was designed to.work exactly how it's working. You noticed Simon Wilson didn't say anything about determining the exact amount of the supposed decades long errors or about recovering the funds. This is gross, flagrant abuse. Every citizen or resident who pays taxes need to demand the dismissal of everybody. Every PM before the current one needs to give an account for this and the current one as well. As you see Simom said they were aware of these issues for years. Unbelievable!
In addition to firing, some folks need to be flogged for this.
