Bahamas: Minister Rejects National Lottery Suggestion To Fund Education In
2008-06-09 18:44:00 Education Minister Rejects Nat?l Lottery Suggestion: By Viraj Perpall - Nassau, Bahamas: Minister of Education Carl Bethel has denied that the government plans to establish a national lottery over the next 10 years to fund education in The Bahamas. The statement that the government will establish a national lottery is contained in the latest draft of a new plan for education, which the Bahama Journal has obtained. Mr. Bethel confirmed that the Ministry of Education is completing a 10-year education plan but indicated that he is not aware of any plans to fund education through the means of "legalized gambling." "As minister of education I have no knowledge of this," Mr. Bethel said. "When I got to Education I met discussions in the Department of Education about the development of a 10-year plan that had been going on for at least 10 years. I set up a strategic group within the ministry and they are now in the process of engaging internal focus groups with stakeholders, with ...
Bahamian Pastors: Legalizing gambling in The Bahamas would only cause more
2008-06-05 05:26:00 Pastors Scoff At Plan For Nat?l Lottery: By Viraj Perpall - Nassau, Bahamas: A group of pastors on Tuesday scoffed at a bid by education officials to fund education?s future needs through a national lottery. The most recent draft of a new plan for education ? which was obtained by the Bahama Journal ? says the government will over the next 10 years fund education through a national lottery. It?s an idea many religious leaders have long rejected. "Wherever a national lottery is introduced crime goes up and there are social problems you have to address," said Lyall Bethel, senior pastor at Grace Community Church. He said it is the church that would have to come to the rescue of the people detrimentally affected by a national lottery. "It irritates me when people say that we are just concerned about the tithe being lost, but nothing can be further from the truth," Pastor Bethel said. "We know that it?s us who are going to fix those families that will be destroyed. Money that...
Bahamas To Establish A National Lottery To Fund Education
2008-06-03 20:06:00 Bid For Nat?l Lottery: By Candia Dames - Nassau, Bahamas: Education officials have completed the latest draft of a new strategic plan for education, saying the government will over the next 10 years establish a national lottery to fund education in The Bahamas. "The bulk of monies in education?s budget is allotted to personal emoluments," the plan says. "This trend will continue as it reflects the need to reward our human resources with the salaries they deserve for the import duties performed. However, for the education system to improve on a consistent basis, efforts must be made to seek legitimate and creative sources of funding which will be needed for the construction of educational facilities, the further development of instructional programmes and the purchase of tuition supplies." Education officials also say the government will address funding issues in education by working closely with CARICOM countries to address common education challenges, thereby reducing costs. ...

Bahamas Football
2008-05-26 05:01:00 Over the last few centuries the sport of football has greatly become popular. Groups like the Federation Internationale de Football Association, or FIFA, have helped to spread the popularity of the sport to many different countries. The Bahamas are among the places that have been influenced by the sport. However, Bahamas football is just something that has become popular in recent times. Sports in the Bahamas as a whole was not that big until the early part of the twentieth century. During the 1920s and 1930s there were football clubs that began playing the game on the island of New Providence. There were all sorts of clubs, most notably Scouts, St. George and St. Michael, that began playing here. These clubs would also play games with groups from naval ships from other countries and other recreation ships that docked at Nassau. Most of the games here were played during the Eastern Parade. In the 1940s football truly began to be popular. The Boxing Day Soccer Classic was formed for ...
Bahamas Trade Unions Stand Divided
2008-05-24 01:25:00 Unions Still Divided as Labour Day Approaches: By TOSHEENA ROBINSON-BLAIR - Nassau, Bahamas: While nixing the idea that the country?s two umbrella unions would finally unite to stage one major Labour Day march, leaders affiliated with the Trade Union Congress (TUC) unveiled plans on Thursday for their annual Labour Day parade, which is expected to be held under the theme, "The struggle for unity continues. Then, now, forever." As Labour Day approaches, the country?s largest trade union, the Bahamas Hotel Catering and Allied Workers Union, continues to be embroiled in bitter infighting, and differences between the TUC and the National Congress of Trade Unions will apparently prevent them from joining forces on June 6 as originally planned. According to TUC President Obie Ferguson, the lack of recognition for some trade unions in the country, the need for vacation and notice pay in the event a company goes bankrupt or relocates, and the enforcement of court judgments in worker...

The Situation of The Bahamian Youth in The Bahamas
2008-05-17 03:10:00 A State of Crisis: Growing Problems Facing Youth: By Sasha L. Lightbourne - Nassau, Bahamas: The country is in a state of crisis due to the situation of its youth, Chairman of the Juvenile Panel Magistrate Carolyn Vogt-Evans asserted Wednesday night. "The future is at risk and so we must look at solutions," said Magistrate Evans, who was a panelist at a Jones Communications sponsored town meeting on "The Situation of Youth in The Bahamas" at the Wyndham Resort. "We are all aware of the crisis the family is in and any reasonable thinking citizen knows that the social ills that affect our country today stem from the breakdown in the family structure." There have been growing concerns in many circles about the involvement of young people in violence and the number of young people falling victim to crimes. Four out of 27 murder victims for 2008 have been high school students and police say most of the crimes committed this year have been by young males. Magistrate Evans said th...
Bahamas: Politics, Divisions, and Pastors
2008-05-16 04:31:00 Politics not closed to pastors: By KARAN MINNIS, Guardian Lifestyles Reporter - Nassau, Bahamas: Is it right for Bishop Neil Ellis to have acted as the spiritual advisor for the Progressive Liberal Party, while Bishop Simeon Hall carried the same role for the Free National Movement? Do you think it was right for Revs. C B Moss, Philip McPhee or Frederick McAlpine to seek political office. Or do you agree with the notion that there needs to be a line drawn between the state and the church or do you think that the church's role in government is okay? Erica Sawyer, 23, a student with political ambitions says sometimes it seems the church and its "guards" control the country more than the people and politicians. "I am a Christian church-going young lady, and I understand that the church is the guiding focus of our morals and standards, but I still believe it is wrong for the church and its leaders to be mixed up in politics and [religious leaders] to even run for Parliament,"...

Bahamas: Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) Declined 18 percent In 2007
2008-05-13 23:31:00 UN report-Bahamian FDI fell 18%: By INDERIA SAUNDERS, Guardian Business Desk - Nassau, Bahamas: As Latin America and countries in the Caribbean experienced record growth in foreign direct investment (FDI) last year, The Bahamas, for the first time in decades, found itself unable to grow its own international investment. It fell nearly 20 percent from the previous year, says a new United Nations report. This nation — usually spoiled as far as FDI is concerned — saw it drop 18 percent in 2007 when compared to 2006, according to the UN's Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean. The decline translates into an investment falloff of $126 million. The Bahamas was not the only country in the region to see a decline, however, with Trinidad and Tobago's FDI dropping by six percent and Belize's investments down by eight percent. Still, those pronounced falls, even when combined, are lower than that for this country. Its precipitous decline may be clear evidenc...
Child And Adult Pornography Appear To Be Growing In The Bahamas
2008-05-05 23:57:00 Police Sound Alarm Over Growing Pornography: BY VANESSA C. ROLLE - Nassau, Bahamas: Some 15,000 Bahamians have paid membership in adult Internet sex groups, according to Assistant Superintendent of Police Paul Rolle, who added that child pornography in the country has also become an issue for police. In a conference call with the media from throughout the country on Friday, ASP Rolle reported that child and adult pornography appear to be growing in The Bahamas. ASP Rolle, who is heads the Cyber Crimes Unit of the Central Detective Unit, said that in 2006, there were 11,400 Bahamians registered on pornographic or sex group websites such as sexsearch.com and adultfriendfinder.com. "It is growing by leaps and bounds so you can expect to have the problem of Internet porn in The Bahamas," he said. "What we have seen now with the opening of the cellular world is that persons are now using their cell phones to generate and transmit these pornographic materials?most of them from the...
Bahamas: Saving less to save more in the Bahamian society
2008-05-03 05:25:00 Saving less does not mean stop saving: By INDERIA SAUNDERS, Guardian Business Desk - Nassau, Bahamas: Rising costs are not only affecting the bank balance of the average Bahamian, but are also chipping away at her retirement fund. Amidst increasing gas, food and electricity prices, caution investment specialists, many Bahamians forget about paying another bill ? monthly contributions to their nest eggs. Now's really the time to step up those payments, argues Khalil Braithwaite with Colina Financial Advisors Ltd. "In good times save, in bad times, save even more (because) a possible recession is going to have some indirect effects," he told Guardian Business Thursday. "Generally 10 percent is enough, but realistically people should be looking at saving around 15 percent." There in lies the rub. Many Bahamians, acutely aware of their dwindling disposable income, are unable to put more money into a retirement fund at a time when they are required to spend more for basic b...

Bahamas Government Focus On Food Security For The Islands' People
2008-04-29 05:11:00 Government Focus On Food Security: By Kendea Jones - Nassau, Bahamas: The government is working feverishly to help Bahamian farmers to produce their own food in the midst of a worldwide food crisis, according to Minister of Agriculture and Marine Resources Larry Cartwright. Food prices in The Bahamas have already increased significantly over the last few months. For instance, in Grand Bahama, in February the reported cost for items such as limes/lemons had gone up by 42.5 percent; for apples, 37 percent; butter, 27.6 percent and sweet peppers, 19.2 percent. In New Providence, prices in February on tangerines were up 9.4 percent; limes/lemons, 7.6 percent and canned milk, 3.6 percent. Other food items that advanced the consumer price index included, but were not limited to, frozen fruits and juices, dried vegetables, roast beef, tomato paste, lamb, fresh whole chicken and grapes. The Department of Statistics said the food and beverage group was impacted "tremendously" by risi...
Bahamas Pharmacies selling tobacco products spark industry debate
2008-04-26 00:41:00 Pharmacies selling cigarettes ignite industry debate: By VERNON CLEMENT JONES, Guardian Business Editor - Nassau, Bahamas: An apparent growth in the number of drugstores selling cigarettes is sparking debate among pharmacists, many concerned the practice compromises ethical guidelines while providing no real boast to the bottom line. "About 80 percent of a Bahamian pharmacy's sales are directly from prescription drug," said Crystal Gibson, a local practitioner, "There's no need for pharmacies to get involved with selling something that actually harms the client-customers they are hoping to help." Her comments come as another two of the country's 50 or more drugstores move to stock and sell tobacco products. They join at least three others scattered across downtown Nassau offering cigarettes and cigars in addition to their core service of dispensing drugs. Government licensing of the latter does not, in fact, preclude the former. Still, the Bahamian trend runs counter to...

Haitian Cargo Ships Present Too Great A Risk To Bahamas National Security
2008-04-21 23:49:00 Ban on Haitian boat would double import costs: By INDERIA SAUNDERS, Guardian Business Desk - Nassau, Bahamas: A pending ban on Haitian sloops in our waters could take the wind out of the sails of a business that has only begun to develop – entirely legal trade between Haiti and The Bahamas. Last week, Director of Immigration Vernon Burrows confirmed the policy change, suggesting those cargo ships present too great a risk to national security. While the wooden-hulled vessels are suspected of playing a major role in the trafficking of drugs, guns and humans, they're also the only freighters that conduct regular and direct import runs from the impoverished nation. It is, of course, the homeland of an increasing number of Bahamians and a target for local businesses looking to trim supply costs. The government decision represents yet another hurdle in the latter's path and is most likely an answer to requests from American officials. Just last month, the new U.S. Internat...

2008-04-17 18:40:00 Men urged to return to roles as fathers: By STAFF WRITER, Nassau Guardian - Nassau, Bahamas: Bahamas Faith Ministries Senior Pastor Dr. Myles Munroe is appealing to men to return to their vital role as fathers in our nation, and embrace not only their own children, but all the sons and daughters of our communities. His plea was made recently at the launching of the All-Pro Dad show, an international organization that focuses on restoring the value of fathers in family and nation- building. "The state of escalating crime, violent murders, depressing daily news from the courts, school fights, gang warfare and the still menacing drug use, are all cause of deep concern for all Bahamians," said Munroe. "The government, the church, civic groups and corporate organizations are all grappling with what to do to stem the tide of social destruction and disintegration." According to Munroe, experts and social scientists have concluded and agreed that one of the principal sources of the ...
Director Of The Bahamas Department Of Meteorology Calls For More Attention
2008-04-15 23:42:00 Expert Calls For More Attention To Climate Change Issues: BY VANESSA C. ROLLE - Nassau, Bahamas: The worldwide effort to combat the effects of climate change is not far removed from The Bahamas. On the home front, officials continue to suggest ways the local population can do its part to reduce the impact of global warming. All over the world the movement is growing to address global warming. "One of our major threats is sea level rise," said Dr. Arthur Rolle, director of the Bahamas Department of Meteorology. "With a population of 300,000 and 80 percent living within one kilometer of the coastline, you will see how potentially dangerous that is for our residents. The way to curb it is for us to do whatever we can to adapt to sea level rise situations." Climate change, he explained, means that there will be an increase in the intensity of storms. "We saw that in 2004 when we had Frances and Jeanne. Frances covered the entire Bahamas. So each one of those islands was experien...

Though opting not to disclose any detailed information about the plan, Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Education Elma Garraway, explained that once the information collected by ministry officials, and the resulting solutions to the problem leads to actual policy, the ministry would reveal its plans in full detail.

Bahamas Police Chief Says There's No Need For Police In Public Schools
2008-04-08 04:54:00 Police Chief Says No Need For Police In Schools: By Kendea Jones - Nassau, Bahamas: Despite violent episodes at two public high schools last week, Acting Commissioner of Police Reginald Ferguson maintains there is no need for police to be stationed at schools. "People have to realize that this is not just the police?s problem," Mr. Ferguson said in an interview with the Bahama Journal on Sunday. "This is a problem that affects our entire society. Parents have to be accountable and look after their children better. Whether the police is there or not things are going to happen." The first incident occurred last Thursday at D.W. Davis Junior High School. According to school officials, the incident occurred just after some students were released from a study period for BJC examinations. According to officials, two groups of students of opposing gangs began using objects from around the school as weapons to fight each other. Though there were no serious injuries reported, it lef...

Coroners Inquest Bahamas: Daniel Wayne Smith - Late Son Of Former Playboy P
2008-04-02 00:34:00 By TOSHEENA ROBINSON-BLAIR - Nassau, Bahamas: After months of testimony, the jury in the inquest into the death of Daniel Smith, the son of the late former Playboy Playmate Anna Nicole Smith, on Monday handed down its verdict ? one that essentially found his death to be accidental. The jury delivered a unanimous decision that Daniel died as a result of a "non-dependent use of drugs." Essentially, that means he was not addicted to the drugs he consumed and did not expect to die from them. It was not the verdict that the attorney representing Daniel?s family had hoped for. "We don?t think it makes any sense," said Neil McCabe, the U.S. attorney representing Daniel?s grandmother Virgie Arthur and his father, Billy Smith. "The boy was not a drug user. The judge said so. Why he would all of a sudden take a massive overdose of methadone in an abusive manner doesn?t make any sense. We don?t agree with the verdict. We think it is contrary to the evidence and unfortunately the jury ...

Bahamas Education System Suffers From Bad Policy Decisions - Post Independe
2008-03-31 23:42:00 Education System Suffering From Bad Policy Decisions, Archer Says: By Candia Dames - Nassau, Bahamas: The country?s education system is still suffering from some of the bad policy decisions made after independence in 1973, according to former High Commissioner to CARICOM A. Leonard Archer, who is also a former educator who headed the Bahamas Union of Teachers. Mr. Archer, who was the special guest on the Love 97/JCN programme "Jones and Company" on Sunday, said that after independence many good teachers felt they were no longer welcomed in the system and so they left. The result, he said, was a shortage of educators in the public school system and the powers that be lowered the standards teachers had to meet before being hired. It meant that many teachers were brought in with lower qualifications and the system today is still suffering from that, Mr. Archer opined. He said that after independence questions were being raised about whether English teachers, for example, ought ...

HIV/AIDS Awareness Message Hits The Streets Of The Bahamas
2008-03-29 23:30:00 HIV/AIDS Awareness In Rawson Square: By Sasha L. Lightbourne - Nassau, Bahamas: With HIV/AIDS on the increase among young persons in The Bahamas, one group felt it necessary to take the message of awareness and prevention to the streets. Youth Ambassadors for Positive Living (YAPL) took to Rawson Square on Friday to educate and inform young people about the overwhelming epidemic of HIV/AIDS within The Bahamas. Keith Kemp, chairman of YAPL, told the Bahama Journal that there was a need to take a different approach to awareness and prevention education. "We are here in Rawson Square because we as a youth organization are moving our information from a classroom type setting or church or youth group in terms of presentation and are looking at bringing information to the streets to the average persons," Mr. Kemp said. He said that his group has found that many young persons don?t attend youth groups and they don?t attend churches. "They aren?t going to churches anymore where the...

Coroners Inquest Bahamas: California attorney Howard K. Stern disputed test
2008-03-19 23:13:00 Stern Testifies In Smith Inquest - By TOSHEENA ROBINSON-BLAIR: Nassau, Bahamas - A close friend of the former US reality TV star the late Anna Nicole Smith not only recounted the final hours of the celebrity?s 20-year-old son?s life while on the witness stand Tuesday, but also refuted previous testimony that he possibly got rid of evidence.
