Carnival’s misguided strategy
I was inspired to write on the Junkanoo Carnival after reading your article in the newspaper of Monday, February 29, 2015, under the caption “Strategic approach to Carnival Marketing plan”.
The strength of Bahamian women
Bahamian women need to remember how valuable we are.
Equal rights
Have the writers missed an all important point where it concerns a person, non-Bahamian, applies for citizenship but they do not reside in The Bahamas that at 21 years they are bound to renounce their original citizenship in favour of Bahamian? We do not accept dual citizenship.
Problems with the NHI Bill
Please allow me space in your newspaper to express my views on the impending National Insurance Bill.
On The Pointe
There is a Chinese proverb along the lines: “With money you can buy a position, but not respect.”
Rusty Bethel’s appendix
Apropos your story on the missing appendix.....
Cabbage Beach access
Allow me space in your newspaper to address the recent issue of deprivation of access by Access Industries to Cabbage Beach of vendors, Bahamians and visitors alike.
Baha Mar vs The Pointe
I believe we have arrived at a moment in time when all concerned with Baha Mar and The Pointe projects should restrain their comments and resolve their grievances in a more polite manner than what we are seeing published in the media.
Three up and one down
As a trained lawyer and a strict constitutionalist, I will campaign for and support the passage of the first three of the proposed constitutional and gender equality bills. The fourth one, as it relates to the vague definition of ‘sex’ and its snide reference to gender, is the fabled Trojan Horse.
A Pointe-d error
Your readers don’t need me to elaborate on the storms of controversy swirling around the unfinished towers of Baha Mar and its Chinese bankers and contractors.
Signage at the airport
I have just returned from a pleasant visit to see friends in New Providence. My return home was, however, not assisted by the signage at the airport.
In answer to Pointe builders
We should all wish The Pointe project well. The people of The Bahamas don’t need another unfinished China Construction America project looming on their skyline, especially one at the gateway to its historic downtown.
Closer to equality
The Bahamas took a giant step forward Wednesday when House members put political differences aside to overwhelmingly support the four gender equality Bills.
Why I will be voting no
WEDNESDAY, March 2, 2016 has been hailed as an historic day by FNM and PLP parliamentarians, because of the passing of the four Constitutional Amendment Bills on gender equality in the legislature.
Cast your vote for our future
AS members of parliament voted on the constitutional equality bills yesterday, I am reminded that far too many people in The Bahamas are prejudiced against women; far too many people are bigots owing to their religious indoctrination; and far too many people are ignorant to their own human rights.
