Where are the changes in healthcare, Dr Minnis?
I personally never have high hopes for political promises. Even when they are fulfilled they are usually not well thought out and often become weights around the collective necks of the electorate.
Where are the women?
WHEN I opened the paper this morning (12th) there was a picture of the Governor General welcoming the Cabinet to their Christmas lunch and guess what - except for the Governor General not a female in sight - what a disgrace!
Heritage overrun by goats
HERITAGE, def: “features belonging to the culture of a particular society, such as traditions, languages, or buildings, which come from the past and are still important.” (Cambridge Academic Content Dictionary)
Ain't no sunshine
Given the limbo within which drone regulation currently exists today, one is hard-pressed to effectively provide advice regarding the use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) (better known as) drones throughout The Bahamas.
Problems at the post office
PRE-MAY 10th, 2017 the Post Office was not operating on all cylinders, it hasn’t been since, but incredibly overnight when revenue is an issue Government Mail can suddenly appear.....
Press secretary
THE creation of the Press Secretary attached to OPM seemingly and intentionally by design to hide the Prime Minister from the media has so far been a disaster and I doubt it will be anything better - conclusion abandon ship and close it down and allow BIS, who for years did the same job exceptionally well, of course with a Prime Minister understanding better the political importance of having a positive relationship with the media.
The process of creating our laws
The social media frenzy of opposition from certain quarters to the Commercial Enterprise Bill, 2017 is a direct result of Parliament not following the guidelines for developing laws.
Speak up for Rodney Moncur
I MIGHT not share Rodney Moncur’s views on most topics but I sometimes listen to his Radio/TV Talk Show. The reasons are varied. He is controversial, his subject matter is always interesting, he calls a spade a spade and he is funny and entertaining.
Sorry don't ease no pain
Hubert Minnis having been placed under enormous pressure, coming from his own supporters and the wider country, especially the less fortunate, has forced him to confess his sins publicly. He did, now he should do penance.
Health pledge
PERSONALLY, I never have high hopes for political promises. Even when they are fulfilled they are usually not well thought out and often become weights around the collective necks of the electorate. However, if there was one area in which this current administration ought to shine it should be in healthcare.
Illegal immigrants must go
Man’s natural instinct to survive is essentially a selfish instinct, which often disregards fairness, equity or equality especially when the environment in which we live in is filled with corruption “Private gain at public expense”.
Talk show babble
THERE has to be concern as to the content or lack of content of Radio Talk Shows - it seems anyone can babble along spouting garbage and the garbage is perceived as true and factual.
Thank you, Mr Ingraham
IT would be easy to laugh off the inane and senseless statements emanating from the FNM government (generally in defence of equally inane and senseless actions) were they not so apparently committed to actions that will, at the least, be a distraction from the real issues of governance and, at most, cause this country irreparable harm.
AirBnB taxes
YOUR letter writer Bruce Raine is understandably misinformed as to existing tax fees and required registration for persons renting residential property as a tourist accommodation as for years I suspect tourism has not managed this important part of our tourism business or collected the fees or registered the properties.
Bahamasair
As a practice, Bahamasair does not respond to letters to the Editor, however, it was important to assure the travelling public that the airline takes its service obligations seriously.
