New king can make a difference
King Charles was crowned King of The UK and the Commonwealth of Nations proper today. Salutes and a hardy Hoorah to thee. A new King, and an enabled leader of the UK in fact. Charles has been waiting for this day all his life, and it’s now his time to make a difference, imprint himself upon his nation and the world as a leader both different and unique to the British Monarchy. While Queen Elizabeth was a rock of the status quo Charles has a chance and an obligation to make a profound difference as a leader.
Our judges are following the law
I have never been a fan of the Prime Minister of St. Vincent and his recent remarks concerning Bahamian judges did nothing to change my opinion of him.
No regard for residents
I refer to a letter published May 2 penned by one BA Sweeting in opposition to the proposed development of Viking Court, West Bay Street.
See what ya looking at - it’s critical
Years ago, a good friend and unassuming Bahamian icon/philosopher used to opine “see what ya lookin’ at”!

RCL and PI proposal
As a nature lover, I would like to express my feelings on the current debate over RCL’s development of a Beach Club on the Western end of Paradise Island. First of all, I totally agree with the fears of the various environmentalists. Opinions of expert environmentalists such as Joseph Darville should not be ignored. Who are the members of the Environmental Commission? What are their qualifications?
National symbols
Ministry of National Security correctly, especially with the 50th anniversary, puts out a warning concerning the use of the National Crest and other symbols of the State.
What is true role of UN?
After reading today’s Tribune edition, Monday May 1, 2023 and a story, the top story ‘Nation to answer over human rights,’ and how it suggests that the Government’s position on key issues will be under scrutiny by the UN Council.’
Golf course shows bi-partisan hope
The recent announcement of a new one-of-a-kind 18-hole Jack Nicklaus golf course in Jacks Bay, Eleuthera, was refreshing and heartening, but not for the usual economic reasons although those are also very important.
Why we need Freedom of the Press
ON December 17, 1986, journalist Guillermo Cano Isaza was assassinated in front of the offices of his newspaper, El Espectador, in my home country of Colombia. He was targeted because of the news stories he was pursuing as a journalist.
Family and crime
Crime - the eradication over the years of the ingredient called Family’s root cause for crime. Young ones growing up in an unbalanced unit far from criticising single mothers many have done an incredible job, but you have the disaster of the 25 percent who failed.

The Rolly Gray Harbour
The National Family Islands Regatta Committee records its full support of the renewed call to name the Harbour at George Town, Exuma “The Rolly Gray Harbour” by Commodore and Chairman Daniel Strachan.
PM shows maturity
I read on an Internet news site that the Office of the Prime Minister has announced that Prime Minister Philip Brave Davis will attend the historic coronation of King Charles III on May 6 at Westminster Abbey in London, England.
