EDITOR, The Tribune.
WITH BEC continuing to be plagued with problems in supplying electricity to New Providence and the fear that Baha Mar coming on stream will increase the problem, many residents are asking why successive governments have not negotiated better terms with investors.
For instance, the government could have insisted that Atlantis and Baha Mar provide their own electricity for their resorts and include Atlantis providing power for the eastern area and Baha Mar providing power in the west. If the figures which have been released for Atlantis being provided with electricity from BEC are correct, I do not think that the resort would have had a problem with this scenario.
It would probably have been cheaper and more efficient.
Future government negotiators take note.
