On the 29 th of July 2022 on the floor of the Senate Minister of Tourism Lisa Cummins during wind up on Resolution: Special Loans Act, Cap. 105 – Scotland District Road Rehabilitation made a surprising revelation. At about 2hrs. 12 mins into the video Cummins explained that a loan agreement with China in 2017 included a condition which exposed Barbados sovereign assets to China in the event there was a default by the government of the day.

A few days later former Minister of Tourism Richard Sealy – who was in office during 2017 – issued a robust denial to what Cummins stated. Quoting Sealy’s rebuttal:-

There is nothing in the agreement about any airport or seaport being [claimed] in the case of default.

I do not know where that young lady got her information. I do not know if she is being misguided . . . [but it is] absolute total rubbish,” he said.

The former minister of tourism added that the agreement was regarding the Sam Lord’s Castle Hotel Project. He said the arrangement with COMPLANT (the China National Complete Plant Import Export Corporation) was for the project to be a discreet one which could stand on its own.

The Government (then) was determined not to have a repeat of the HRL (Hotels & Resorts Limited)/Gems of Barbados fiasco so there was an exit plan where as soon as we completed the job, the private sector would come in and do what they had to do, which is exactly what this Government is doing,

    I heard a discussion where folks were calling for a return of the death penalty, probably by hanging.

    Did you notice that two elected BLP officials are speaking out about the neglect of their constituencies?

    Is this the first sign that 30-0 configuration may change? Are we seeing a fracturing of the party?

    Boys and girls, you have to look beyond the headlines. Put 2+2 together.

    Chinese #Belt&Road is buying very thing it can with all that surplus #USDollarDEBT but principally “PORTS” and most folks who wear rose-coloured binocular do not see the “CON”… Why do you think that the $US is so strong right given all the #TOXICDebt she has? Well, SIMPLE: Chinese owns “TRILLIONS” of US Debt and spends that debt money on buying up Western assets – farmland, PORTS*, tech etc… So the “MASSIVE CON” that #AmeriKKKa will go to war over #Taiwan or anywhere else is the biggest “SCAM” on the earth right now!!! The “ONLY” way WAR* starts between the two is if China “DUMPS” US debt and “CRASHES” the US… The GLOBALISTS* will continue their intrigue until some fool lights the fuse leaving no choice for #WW3!!! Meanwhile China “DOMINATES” & will have the power (LIKE PUTIN) to turn off the “SPIGOT” – making the world “POOR” or do what the Chinese says (as we are seeing begin to happen in Europe over (“RUSSIAN SANCTIONS)… Why all of a sudden – all these #RIGHTWING_EU-GOVs???

    I see what you are saying in regards to the “SUPPLIED” pdf but that really says nothing in the larger scheme of things…

    C’mon Bruh, we are told to give “HUMANS” the benefit of the doubt but as I posited in my piece referencing #PoLIEtical Atheism – there are many of us that have “ZERO-TRUST” in #LyingCorruptPoliticians who believe that they are above the law and can wield & deal to suit their own pockets & that of their cronies…

    I would be the 1st one to rejoice if the Chinese do have their hands on the people’s assets but (tell me BIG BRUV) – how can we be really sure??? Do you think what is done in the dark with a “CROOKED” handshake, WINK* & a NOD* ever comes to the fore for public gaze & scrutiny???

    What happens after the #MAMGOV is finally toast & ran out of office & as she rides off into the sunset with her “OFFSHORE BANK BALANCES” & the then ADMIN* of the country has to reveal to the people of BIM the shenanigans that took place under her watch because there was “NO CREDIBLE OPPOSITION” of any worth to hold them to account???

    Sorry, David for being such a “DOUBTING THOMAS” but I will believe it when I see it… Until then, these dirty, lying, slithering, corrupt BASTERDS* would never have my “TRUST”, “VOTE” or “CONFIDENCE” in any area!!!

    Inflation is a “MASSIVE CON” in my estimation, Bruh!!! I may not be alone in this massive sleight of hand “TRICKONOMICS” but whenever the “GLOBALISTS” want to achieve a specific end-GOAL*, they always “CRY WOLF” that there’s not “ENOUGH” to go around- so let us “CUT TAXES” (1st) 4 THE RICHEST (2) “TRICKLE-DOWN Reaganomics for the “POOR” & (3) let’s put up interest rates & “BORROW” more “FAKE MONEY”!!!

    Inflation is a hidden tax levelled on “FOOD, ENERGY, YOU NAME IT: so as the “COST OF LIVING GOES UP” – the chances of living goes down… And who loses & DIES*: THE POOR (perfect EUGENIC STRATEGY)!!!

    Forgive me, but all the “CONSPIRACY THEORISTS” who warns us of:

    Hmmmm……

    Is it becoming more and more obvious which ‘side of the fence’ ‘The O Guy’ sits. 🤔

    However, there will be always be disagreements in every relationship, whether it’s between family, relatives, friends, club members, or members of political parties.

    Ironically, when talk of the ‘Eagar 11’ and bickering between Estwick, Sinkler & Stuart surfaced in ‘ DEMS camp,’ and ‘elected DLP officials were speaking out about the neglect of their constituencies,’……
    …… BLP supporters were quick to ask if Barbadians were “seeing a fracturing of the party.”

    The DLP supporters were similarly quick to respond that it was just disagreements among friends and, there weren’t any subsequent resignations from the party as a result.

    In response to ‘The O Guy’s’ observations, I’m sure the BLP supporters will likewise claim what we’re witnessing, is ‘just a little in-house dispute.’

    I’m always amazed how party supporters are able to interpret the SAME situations DIFFERENTLY.

    “At least banks can say they provide security. What are people getting when they invest in Mia Mottley’s promises? For those of us not living in Barbados, it costs us nothing to ooh and aah in amazement.

    It’s only a matter of time until it all hits the fan in Barbados under the Mottley administration. By then, we would find someone else to gush over. The people in Barbados won’t have the fortune of wilful ignorance on their side to blank out the grim reality.”

    With rising interest rates it might explain why Mottley administration is hunting cheap money by renewing agreement with the IMF. Lest we forget the Barbados economy is not what it is being cracked up to be. The IMF has become the ‘benefactor’ of last resort. The bevy of financial consultants on taxpayers tab is money well spent?

    Okay.

    Then, wouldn’t that SAME DESCRIPTION be EQUALLY APPLICABLE to that SAME WOMAN who delights in “attacking African WOMEN” in this forum, namely Donna and Cuhdear Bajan, on a REGULAR BASIS?

    What words should be used to APPROPRIATELY DESCRIBE that same woman who CONSTANTLY spews UNTRUTHS “just to make things interesting,” fraudulently copied someone’s email address to send FALSE INFORMATION, makes FALSE ACCUSATIONS and issues MEANINGLESS, EMPTY THREATS?

    Perhaps “a puny cowardly mouse pretending to be a woman,” is perhaps too good to describe her.

    This issue was in the news since early July and I noticed it was ignored here. But back then you were busy on your 50th iteration of Mottley’s bloated cabinet, talking about the Auditor G should be immune from civil suits (yuh notice how they completed mixed up Oistins and Bridge Street?) and Kinch Gate etc. By the way, any updates on the latter?

    I wonder if those who are interested in bread and butter issues could explain to me why the cost of goods in Barbados is grotesquely inflated.. I went to a cafe in St Thomas and was charged in excess of 55 Barbadian dollars for a sandwich with some side chips and a couple of lukewarm beverages. In England, the equivalent cost would be two thirds less!

    I know for some, you would not be convinced unless I were to produce a receipt. However in the real world, the average Bajan is unable to cope with the rising cost of living. Has anyone noted the cost that taxi drivers charge. Why are they not on meters?

    Some of us on BU are insensitive or more likely unaware as to the daily economic burden faced by your average Bajan. We prefer to tear each other apart rather then use or eyes to assist us to question and to challenge the genuine issues faced by many on the island.

    Walk the streets, take yourselves out of your usual comfort zones and try to find out how the masses are suffering. Do this before the country sleeps walk its way to lawlessness and outright anarchy.

    …when a real food famine hits, as it will EVERYWHERE….they can just drop an immediate link to show us…LOOK wuh 100 children died from starvation in UK and only 5, 000 died in Barbados….

    UKs POPULATION = 67 MILLION

    Barbados’ population = 285 THOUSAND tops…

    UK can afford to lose a few million people including children…

    wuh Barbados BARELY got 1/4 million people and maybe 35% of that is children..

    and that’s the level of IGNORANCE driving fools..

    Barbados has always been a poverty-stricken country because CORRUPTION, thefts, oppression, exploitation and disenfranchisement of the Afrikan population are TOO HIGH….all engineered by CORRUPT GOVERNMENTS AND CRIMINAL MINORITIES.

    Murdaaaaaah!

    I remembered reading the articles. I”m surprised that they escaped others.

    And out comes some “clown” posting shite from some Guardian (The Justice Leaguer’s favourite) comparing the 2×3 island to superior developed white man land!

    So Lil Donna can read that NHS nurses ain’t got bus fare nor food in England.

    And in more second hand information news – my cousin’s wife recently returned from England and told me that she stayed hungry for hours until she got to her destination rather than buy the ridiculously priced sandwiches at one of their airports.

    Proving that it all depends on WHICH CAFE YOU WENT TO!

    The objective here is to paint Barbados “BLACK” in every way.

    Yet….here is Lil Slave Donna and her son eating, drinking whatever they want, whenever they want and travelling, for the most part, by taxi. I have never had cause to complain about the rate. Sometimes they are even hesitant to charge me what I know should be the rate. I give them what it should be.

    Man, life in Barbados has its problems like everywhere else!

    No doubt there are serious hard times ahead for most of the world’s people because leaders have effed up WORLDWIDE!

    I CALL ON OUR LEADERS TO STOP ALL SHITE AND DO THEIR BEST TO MITIGATE! AND I CALL ON CITIZENS TO HELP EACH OTHER WHEN THEY CAN.

    Fast forward to a year later: Today, September 29, 2022. There has been rain on the island since weekend. The past few days alone the rain has been incessant especially in the west and north of the country. We now have photos and videos of severe flooding in Holetown and while some of us may want to comfort or fool ourselves into believing the footage is old, sadly it is not. The flooding not only has affected residents and businesses, but it has disrupted school at St James Primary and Frederick Smith Secondary.

    Barbados is in a serious debt trap and the sooner government is willing to admit this and come up with a strategic development plan, the better.

    This is the view of retired university Professor of Economics Michael Howard who laments that while borrowing is necessary for economies like Barbados, the country is facing a major problem because government’s present borrowing is unsustainable.”

    Lying Fowl….work was done in that region where there a swamp like area, where the water gushes down from the Trents area next to the hotel….i believe the work on that lasted for at LEAST 2 YEARS OR MORE…

    and if i recall correctly…..it’s been MANY MANY YEARS….both the government and the business people in the area FUNDED IT…

    so again, you and the bottomfeeder FAIL…

    keep trying to attack every comment i make and embarrass yaself.
