No payout for foreign worker at Baha Mar
In most cases, employees are prioritized in Chapter 11. I was unaware that the expatriate employees at Bahamar were somehow second class citizens? We worked hard to try and open Bahamar. Worked 16 hour days, 7 days a week for months. And the gratitude we got was being told we were redundant. We all have a letter stating we would be paid what we were owed, no one wants to work and then be told that their effort was worth nothing. I personally gave up a good job to move to the Bahamas. I came to help the country as a whole take advantage of such a fantastic opportunity. I made great friends, both Bahamian and foreign. I am still in touch with my staff and have continued to help them on their career path. Where in all of that have I slighted Bahamar or the country of the Bahamas to treat me in such a crude fashion. It is very disappointing that all that effort and sacrifice was for nought. Nobody wanted to leave, nobody wanted to give up, we all wanted to open Bahamar, and we were thrown out of the country with no help to return home and now we simply want what is fair.

Why would any US citizen want to support the Bahamas after witnessing the unfair treatment of their fellow citizens? Fortunately there are other great alternatives like Cuba, BVI, Cancun/Cozumel, Puerto Rico, etc., etc., etc.......
