Hope they are not planning to penalize us who use US medical facilities! They already make us have US prescriptions rewritten by Bahamian doctors before having them filled locally. Having experienced medical facilities in both places, I do lean more toward the foreign ones. An example: foreign nurses provide bed pans if needed; locals ignore request, hoping patients will get up anyway to go even wearing a leg cast...We have a long way to go .Thank goodness for medical insurance that allows choice of the options. One day we'll reach the first world.
Far better to look at an LG project or a solar/wind farm to produce alternative sources. In addition, perhaps revisiting fish farming and/ or vegetable/herbs hydroponics could be worth the effort.
Great potential for prosperity... But it is a small beautiful island that may lose its charm in the move toward growth. What about the infrastructure? Power, water, waste disposal, roads? These have been troublesome for a long time!
A genuine National Hero! No blemish on his reputation. I admire his unselfish generosity, wholehearted commitment to our country and people without reservation and to his family and friends. Think about his image on a bank note as well as a statue. Ensure he is remembered!
Why are we surprised and angered? Just look at the verges all over our country...disgusting results from ordinary Bahamians, not visitors. Ever noticed a driver tossing trash out the window as he/she drives? Sometimes while children watch, so why be surprised. Wish I knew the answer to this vexing problem.
