Gibson to employers: 'Justify every work permit'
The work permitting process for foreign workers is mostly a sham. In 2010 was one of those "foreign workers" working as an employee of a BTC supplier (a software company) and the only thing that the Labour Ministry wanted were the fees from the permits. They frequently lost the paperwork submitted by BTC, and only issued the permits when I physically came to the Ministry office with documentation and demanded that the permit be produced to make sure I was not going to face any repercussions from working in the Bahamas on the project I was assigned. Clean up the corrupt and ineffective bureaucracy instead of penalizing companies that are employing workers both domestic and foreign.

He's saying there has been a systematic reduction with 1 less murder, while rape and breaking and entering are both on the rise? They have also never gotten to the bottom of the misreported crime stats. What happened to all of those stabbed and shot people at the hospital that were never accounted for in the police statistics.
Crime is most certainly not being reduced.

One murder less and that's a systematic reduction. if 2 murders happen tomorrow shall we call that a systematic increase ? These guys are nuts,you can't make this stuff up.

Okay PM got it: when FNM is in power the crime it totally the government's fault and responsibility. When the PLP are in power crime is everyone else's responsibility.

Unfortunately with the lack of education and capabilities of too many in the population, companies who are striving to ADD to the economy of the Bahamas will HAVE to look abroad for certain technical and other positions that require specialties that are not available in the Bahamas. Companies have said for years that the Bahamian workforce is not up to par. What are they supposed to do? Risk having someone not capable in the position when they are in the business of making money? I think not!
