Corruption? Surely not here!

Re:  US warning over govt corruption.

Comedian or an MP?

I’m sure there’s a comedian somewhere that sucked his teeth when he read The Tribune headline yesterday quoting Leslie Miller, PLP MP for Tall Pines, as saying The Bahamas “learned corruption from the US”.

Failing to lead, and failing NIB

It was widely believed that the PLP government was elected in 2012 simply because it ran a ”better campaign” than the FNM and the DNA.

Apathy and talking fool

FNM Chairman vote - no doubt there is serious fractional differences -114 voted but 100 didn’t bother. Hardly a political party ready for a general election. Roll-on the FNM convention - we should see sparks.

Bahamas corruption

The Tribune today 14/04/2016 was another doozer, which makes one wonder “why do people continue to even live here”?.

UN listen in UN listening

Having gone through slavery in ancestral memory and able still to experience what was undergone in the cells of my own body, how deeply it offends and angers me to see Africans subjecting Africans on buses – small ones or whatever size ones – to what causes me to taste and to see slavery again.

Fidelity advertisement

Does no one at Fidelity Bank or Fidelity Bank, as the M’Director, calls it understand what their TV advertisement is saying?

Are we forgotten?

We the residents of the Bozine Drive and Knowles Drive off Tonique Williams Darling Highway are very much still in awe and await your response to the land deal between the Government of The Bahamas, Land Co and the ‘Bozine Town’ residents.

Election silly season

They call the run-up to an election, the silly season. Well it seems we might have gone considerably past that, listening and reading comments in the media.

Misleading headlines

I have long suspected both our dailies of needlessly presenting the most negative possible headline for a story about the Bahamas.

Time to graduate

There are few sights more embarrassing than a Bahamian government minister getting before an international audience and arguing that, despite the data consistently confirming us as a high-income country with a high standard of living, we somehow deserve to be classed among Haiti, Honduras and El Salvador, when it comes to concessionary lending.

Answers needed

These issues must be answered:

Baha Mar wait

The efforts to resolve the debacle at Baha Mar will not have resolution any time soon. The Chinese are not in a position where they have to sell the property in the foreseeable future. 

Viewer warning for Destra

Viewer discretion should be advised for Destra Gracia, who has been contracted by the Bahamas National Festival Commission (BNFC) to perform at this year’s Junkanoo Carnival in Nassau.

Double vision on leaks

Having allowed for the leak of private emails and financial information under the skirts of Parliament, Prime Minister Christie is now upset the Panama Papers disclosure will undermine our financial services industry?
