THE SILINESS OF CANDIA DAMES AND THE GUARDIAN

08/02/26 11:43 AM

Candia Dames is really a political trouble maker. It appears that she has an inveterate hatred of all things PLP that it is not possible to get an honest headline from that paper. Last week, she took a throwaway line in voice note to PLP partisans by Chairman Fred Mitchell that Duane Sands, FNM Chair, couldn’t really criticize the government because he did nothing to solve the power problem when he was in Cabinet,

That became major a headline for the Nassau Guardian. Saying that Fred Mitchell blamed the FNM for the total collapse of the system.

 First thing is there was no attempt to blame anyone. It was simply a recitation of the facts.

The fact is that the FNM did not solve the problem when they were in office.

It was left to the PLP to solve and the PLP is solving it, pain and discomfort and all.

So we are working to solve it but  then you have these little side skirmishes and fights manufactured by the  editor of  the Nassau Guardian that you have to find time to bat away.

WHY ARE THERE POWER PROBLEMS?

08/02/26 11:39 AM

New Providence has been plagued by a string of power mishaps that have plunged the entire island into darkness over the past week. The Government is lucky that it held the election when it did in May or they would be in serious problems if the elections were held in the midst of this power issue. The public has lost confidence in BPL and its ability to solve the problem. The Prime Minister and the Energy Minister have been engaged in a vigorous campaign of explanation as to why we are where we are.  In sum, the issue is the grid is in such a bad shape that the improvements in power generation have discovered this weakness. There are the accidents that have happened by misadventure. At week’s end the CEO of BPL was apologizing for the loss of power and the fact that they cannot say when it will end. The government issued a set of guidelines to government offices to run off their generators for the next week and raise the thermostats in buildings that do not have generators, to ease the pressure on the system.  Trouble is most people in this country cannot remember a season when there have not been blackouts and no one seems to be able to solve the problem. The FNM was seeking to blame the PLP when Duane Sands sent out a voice note last week. PLP Chair Fred Mitchell said Duane Sands can’t speak because he did nothing when he was in government to solve the problem.

THE STAND OFF IN GRAND BAHAMA WITJH THE PORT

08/02/26 11:37 AM

The Grand Bahama Port Authority still owes the government of The Bahamas hundreds of millions of dollars for services rendered by the government to the city of Freeport. There is a great resistance by the Grand Bahama Port Authority that they somehow have a hold on what happens in Freeport. The fact is they have been reduced to extracting profits after having sold off many of its valued and income bearing assets. The Port as they call it is somewhat of a play thing for them with their British friends that they own this little city down in The Bahamas. In the meanwhile, the government is investing in the roads and other infrastructure and ensuring that investment comes to Grand Bahama and is fruitful. The power company has now been purchased by the government. The Port still insists it has the power to regulate the rates of the power company which they do not. Their continued obstructionism and obstinate attitude is unhelpful to Freeport’s development. The government must continue to press the advantage and get the money that they are rightfully owed.

LET’S COMMIT TO NO FOSSIL FUELS

08/02/26 11:29 AM

We have a suggestion to make to the government of The Bahamas. Forget fossil fuels as part of the mix for individual households. The PLP’s Blue Print for change had promised that it would provide a formula to ensure that every house could solarize its energy supply.  It is time for us to move on that.  While LNG might be part of the larger mix, if solar had been installed like this column has been asking the government to do for years, we would not be in the position we are with these massive black outs across the country.

WHY ARE YOUNG BLACK MEN KILLING ONE ANOTHER?

08/02/26 11:23 AM

Fred Mitchell, Chair of the PLP, was asked the question in the headline while in Miami last week at the independence celebrations for The Bahamas. He said he told his questioner that he did not have an answer, save that this was an epidemic throughout the CARICOM region and the United States. There are similar problems in Bermuda, Trinidad, Jamaica, St Lucia, Barbados and Guyana. We are not sure that anyone has an answer. What we believe is that this is caused by a lack of value formation. That means that somewhere in the raising of the children, there is a loss of values. The PLP’s solution has been to try social remediation programmes. That is what Urban Renewal is. That is what Programme Sure is.  However, these programmes will take at least a decade to see whether they work or not. The hope is by engaging young people in positive activities that this will help with value formation and tamp down the propensity to inflict violence particularly amongst males.

THE HEALTH OF BAHAMIANS AND EARLY DEATHS

08/02/26 11:06 AM

If you look at the stats in The Bahamas today the total average life expectancy at birth is 74.71 years. For females it is 78.33 years. For men it is 71.06 years. Clearly women are outliving men and what are some of the reasons for this? The World Health Organization (WHO) reports for 2021 the list of the leading causes of death for women: Covid 19, heart disease and strokes. For men: Covid 19, Heart disease and thirdly interpersonal violence.  Violence is clearly a public health issue amongst men.

Letters to the editor

We Only Fix What is Broken

08/02/26 11:15 PM

There is a lesson I learned from owning my condominium.

I bought it 15 years ago, newly renovated and in excellent condition. For years, I did very little maintenance because everything still worked. But time has a way of exposing neglect. Today, the cupboards are worn, the paint is chipped, the ceiling is cracked, the bathroom fixtures need replacing, and the appliances and furniture have reached the end of their useful lives. It did not happen overnight. It happened because maintenance was postponed until deterioration became impossible to ignore.

The recent power outages in New Providence have been frustrating, especially during this record-breaking heat. Families and businesses have every right to be upset. Energy Minister JoBeth Coleby-Davis has acknowledged the hardship, while Prime Minister Philip Davis has reiterated that the country inherited an ageing, end-of-life electricity system and that the long-term solution is not another temporary repair, but a comprehensive modernization of the grid through the government’s energy reform programme, including upgraded transmission infrastructure, new generation, cleaner fuels, renewable energy, and greater system resilience. We have the right people at the helm to cause this modernization to happen. 

The deeper issue, however, is one we have ignored for decades. Successive governments have too often treated infrastructure the way many of us treat our homes—repairing only after things begin to fail. That cycle must end.

It is also disappointing to see Opposition Leader Michael Pintard criticize the 200-kilowatt electricity benefit for vulnerable households as money that should instead be spent on the grid. He is ALWAYS on the wrong side of national issues. Prime Minister Davis has explained that this concession was negotiated to protect low-income families, seniors, and struggling Bahamians while broader energy reforms move forward. Compassion and infrastructure are not mutually exclusive; a responsible government must pursue both.

The lesson from my condo is simple: deferred maintenance always costs more. If The Bahamas is to build stronger infrastructure, every government—present and future—must make maintenance a national priority, not an afterthought.

No! No!. No to Bahama Rock

08/02/26 10:58 AM

FELIX SANDS WRITES FROM FREEPORT

Bahama Rock is a Mining Company that exports aggregate to various markets around the world. The aggregate is used for the building of roads and in construction.  Bahama Rock is situated to the western side of the entrance of Freeport Harbor that buttresses Hepburn Town, Eight Mile Rock.  The company employs approximately 80 persons.

The company is seeking to purchase the land on which the old Bahamas Cement Co., plant stood; approximately 270 acres of land.  The company is seeking government’s approval to strip mine the acreage, and call it widening the turning basin for the Freeport Harbor.   A clever package of extracting aggregate to export the last bit of profits out of the acreage that is left in the area.
In this vein, the Ministry of Environment held a town meeting this past Wednesday, 29th July, in Freeport to hear from the residents and interested parties to begin a 30-day public consultative process.

The people of Grand Bahama have grown weary of these harebrained scheme ideas which only benefit the foreign investor, and when things go south, the taxpayers are left with the wreckage of paying the bill to fix the problem which was created by them.

In recent times, the Freeport Harbor was dredged to become a deeper port.  Blasting took place, and the residential  homes in Eight Mile Rock and Hawksbill, the neighboring communities homes, suffered structural damage to their homes; cracks to this day, and no remedy has been forthcoming. The owners completely ignored the problem, thus, failing the Good Will test miserably.

Bahama Rock has simply planned to strip mine a 270-acre dredging down to approximately 70 ft. next to the largest settlements outside of New Providence.

What are the implications for flooding and tidal flow for the neighboring settlements; including severe flooding during a weather cyclone on both sides of Freeport the entrance of Freeport Harbor?  Eight Mile Rock,  and on the other side, Pinder’s Point, Hawksbill, Lewis Yard and Hunters, all indigenous Bahamian communities.  What is the benefit to the people of Grand Bahama should this project be allowed to proceed?  Is the government prepared to play roulette with the health and safety of the people of these communities and their Investments?

The hallmark of the Progressive Liberal Party has always been “people are more important than things or profits”.

Grand Bahama’s recent history is a portrait of big business walking away when profits diminish.  Driftwood /Princess closing off Sunrise Highway for a “beach”, Grand Lucaya Hotel and Grand Bahama Airport. These are examples of an impotent  government shirking their responsibilities.

The finally blow of this unworthy Mining Company must not be allowed to be struck against a people who want only to live a quiet and Peaceable life.  Their quality of life should not be molested.

NO! NO! NO to dredging at the entrance of Freeport Harbor .
