POLITICOLE: The influence and memory of Dr Myles Munroe
I am not a religious person; I want to be very clear about that. Nevertheless, I have had a full exposure to the Christian church – the Anglican church, to be specific.
Briefly
HONG KONG (AP) — Pro-democracy protesters clashed with police Monday as they tried to surround Hong Kong government headquarters to revitalize their flagging movement for democratic reforms after camping out on the city’s streets for more than two months.
YOUNG MAN'S VIEW: Now's the time for BEC to embrace privatisation
PUT frankly, I’m simply sick of the Bahamas Electricity Corporation (BEC) and I often wonder how much more of this seeming ineptitude as it relates to providing continuous electricity and blatant disregard for the public that we—the people—could handle.
POLITICOLE: Minnis it is (and what's his name)
I paid a few trips to Parliament this past summer, to witness first-hand what Members of Parliament (MPs) get up to in the House of Assembly.
YOUNG MAN'S VIEW: FNM needs credible names to be its standard bearers
THE Free National Movement’s convention would be over by the time of today’s publication, but by all accounts it was shaping up to be a heated, highly contested affair

YOUNG MAN'S VIEW: BOB's lucrative partnership poses questions on ethics
YET again, the Bank of the Bahamas’ (BOB) corporate governance is requiring more scrutiny with the bank’s partnership with the Brickell Management Group, the management company for Venetian West, which is a gated community development purportedly headed by Island Luck owner Sebas Bastian. According to representatives of the management company, their partnership with the Bank of the Bahamas (BOB) will result in that credit facility providing an “exclusive” financing package for potential buyers.
POLITICOLE: HEAD TO HEAD
THE duel for leadership in the Free National Movement (FNM) looks like infighting. It’s not a good or a strong look.
POLITICOLE: Illegal immigrant sympathisers who attack Bahamas immigration law
IT comes as no surprise that the people with the loudest voices, with the most brazen of accusations about The Bahamas’ approach to the management of illegal immigrants and our level of “inhumanity” and “unChristianness” in the country are, in fact, not Bahamian, and/or are not living/have not lived in or near to the end results of illegal immigration in a small country of islands like ours.
INSIGHT - YOUNG MANS VIEW: Long Island's economic slump
I GREW up on the best place on earth — Long Island. I have long thought that our great island — for me, the greatest island in our archipelagic chain — has become a forgotten outsider. That has saddened me, particularly during my countless visits to Eleuthera, Grand Bahama, Abaco, Bimini, Exuma and other Bahamian islands.
YOUNG MAN'S VIEW: Bank of the Bahamas fiasco highlights social inequality
THE Bank of the Bahamas (BOB) fiasco is a national disgrace and rational, reasonable Bahamians cannot help but wonder how that BISX-listed institution’s loan portfolio could become such a shameful mess with the accrual of hundreds of millions of dollars of non-performing loans. The bank can only be likened to an asue where everyone withdraws and drops out once they have got their share.
POLITICOLE: Dear Prime Minister: Who are we building the Bahamas for?
Another hotel is not what we need.
YOUNG MAN'S VIEW: Govt needs to do more to curb gun violence
THESE days, maniacal criminals are increasingly using guns as their weapon of choice as they disrupt the serenity of our once tranquil islands, going on murderous rampages, robbing families of loved ones and callously committing heinous crimes with no regard for the law.
TOUGH CALL: The rise and fall of Dr Arthur Porter
The unravelling of Dr Arthur Porter’s life didn’t begin in the Bahamas. But it could be considered to have ended here – more or less.
YOUNG MAN'S VIEW: In the wake of Ottowa shooting, Nassau needs to toughen up
THE Bahamas’ Parliament is wholly unsecure and Parliamentarians are seemingly unprotected in the precincts of both the House of Assembly and the Senate.
