Remembering Winnie Mandela
WINNIE MANDELA Statement by Shridath Ramphal
Could Reece Chipman be manoeuvring to be a PLP?
I read in the newspapers that Reece Chipman was fired by the Prime Minister. Dr Hubert Minnis did not say why he fired him. Mature leaders want young people to be able to move on from failure. Dr Minnis has made the right decision to let Mr. Chipman go unharmed.
The web shops and the “Absence of Data”
“OUR lives begin to end the day we remain silent on things that matter.” Martin Luther King Jr.
DNAs should join the PLP
AFTER two flops at back-to-back elections it is obvious the DNA is done. The party can’t win seats. It won’t ever form a government.
Gladstone Rd post office move
Boy now that has to be totally crazy.
Alternatives to Customs duty
IF Customs duty revenue goes, some ideas where we can make up.
Bridge striping
PARADISE Bridge the Sir Sidney Poitier side…stripping.
Student protest
AS a former student protester (ban the Bomb, anti -Apartheid, etc) I have always been disappointed that tertiary students in The Bahamas did not protest.
Glad that Laville has gone
PLEASE allow me a space in your paper to express myself on the dismissal of the General Manager of Water & Sewerage.
A fistful of dollars
Arriving at the Bridge Toll Booth yesterday, with only a $50.00 note and a debit card, I asked the attendant if I could pay the toll with the latter debit card. No sir, we only take cash the attendant said with a smile. So I thereupon tendered my $50.00 note and she painstakingly counted out 48 $1.00 notes. Picture above.
Too many murders
MINISTER of National Security says and is quite naturally proud that murders are down a whopping 47%. Let’s understand this.
Support for Adrian Gibson
Now, I read with interest on what is and has taken place at Water and Sewerage Corporation. An entity owned by the Bahamian taxpayers. Any government has a right to have an audit done, whether or not the Executives of that government-owned entity is appraised of it or not.
Crimes and the solutions we need
CRIME — much of what we unfortunately experience is controlled by the Law of Averages.
Minnis in a muddle
ISN’T a Minister supposed to have a hands-on knowledge of what is going on with at least the important projects in ones Ministry?
Elections and talk of deficits
IT is rather funny but serious that today we hear regularly from the FNM that one of their highest priorities is to eliminate deficit budgets, but they do not explain what it will mean to us… wonder why?
