The Secretary General of the Organization of American States (OAS), José Miguel Insulza, today highlighted the importance of labeling and tackling cybercrime as a scourge of a transnational nature that "poses legal, specialization, training-related challenges as well as assistance and cooperation among the States."

OAS Secretary General Calls for Confronting the Causes of the Illicit Trafficking of Firearms - Feb 6, 2012 - 10:05:47 PM

The Secretary General of the Organization of American States (OAS), José Miguel Insulza, today called on the governments of the region to face the causes of the illicit trafficking of firearms, an issue “of the greatest importance” in a continent in which 80 percent of homicides are committed with this type of weapon.


During the inauguration of the seminar on the illicit trafficking of arms being held February 6, 7 and 8 in Washington, DC, the head of the Organization recalled that in Latin America and the Caribbean “all manifestations of organized crime—the illicit traffic of drugs, human trafficking, the illicit traffic of migrants, money laundering, corruption, terrorism, kidnappings, gangs—have a link to the constant flow of arms generally from the exterior...”

Bahamas: Monthly Economic and Financial Developments, December 2011 - Feb 6, 2012 - 9:55:49 PM

Screen_shot_2012-02-06_at_6.56.58_PM.png
Nassau - (Feb. 6, 2012)  - Indications are that the domestic economy maintained a positive, although mild, growth momentum, during the month of December. More favourable foreign investment activity, alongside ongoing public sector infrastructure projects, buoyed construction output and the tourism sector benefitted from stronger seasonal hotel earnings. The central Government’s overall deficit contracted over the first five months of FY2011/12, occasioned by an increase in revenues and a marginal decline in expenditures. In the monetary sector, liquidity and external reserves rose modestly, supported by net foreign currency inflows arising partly from foreign investment and Government’s financing activities.

Free National Movement commentary: "Without Leadership nothing gets done" - Feb 6, 2012 - 8:28:56 PM

The reason that the Opposition was rejected at the polls after a single term cannot be clearer.  There was no leadership.  The Christie administration was the weakest, most incompetent and most unproductive government in an independent Bahamas.

The scandals that rocked the Christie government, its late-again work ethic, its lack of significant accomplishments, and its endless list of broken promises all boiled down to a lack of vision, direction and strong leadership by Perry Christie.

In 2009 a senior PLP who sat in Mr. Christie’s cabinet said of that government: “Many PLPs were dissatisfied with our work ethic: our inability to get things done on time, answer phone calls and get to work on time and to deal with requests to the government in a timely fashi...

PLP says, "Major developing serious issues at the BEC" - Feb 6, 2012 - 10:30:59 AM

The Progressive Liberal Party is deeply concerned over the very serious financial state of affairs that has beset the Bahamas Electricity Corporation since May 2007. We are informed that the Corporation is seriously challenged to pay its oil bill. Just recently Chairman Moss confirmed a BEC oil debt of over $120 million which represents a sizable amount of the Country’s Foreign Banking Reserves. We urge the government to disclose why BEC is purchasing Fuel supplies at spot market prices versus forward contracting and the rate of interest being paid by BEC to its oil supplier as result of long overdue delay in payments.
