Contrary to popular belief Bahamianization is not the way to go to improve life in The Bahamas.\u00a0 The second worse was when we went with the unions, which gave birth to Bahamianization.<\/p>\n
Both mother and child are the cause of today\u2019s problems.\u00a0 Take education for instance.\u00a0 The lack of education is responsible for all crime and bad decisions made by our leaders.<\/p>\n
The group of foreign teachers along with a handful of good Bahamian teachers who taught our children in the 1960s and 1970s would have produced the best students in the history of the education system in the public schools.\u00a0 What did we do?\u00a0 We sent them back so that we can hire unqualified, undisciplined Bahamian teachers.\u00a0 Turned out to be a recipe for disaster thanks to Bahamianization.<\/p>\n
Believe it or not, it has been tried and proven that our children learn from a foreign teacher quicker because they are already idolized and imitated, and they trust them from watching television.\u00a0 Even our black TV idols are trying to look and sound like them.\u00a0 It therefore stands to reason that our children will benefit more from the trained foreign qualified teacher than one who they do not respect.<\/p>\n
Bahamianization and unions could be a good thing for employer and employee if they work together for the betterment and improvement of our country.\u00a0 However, when one side decides to threaten the other side without a dialogue, reasons run out.\u00a0 Simple solution, find a way for employee to improve employer financially.\u00a0 The union should then present this to the employer before demanding a raise.<\/p>\n
In our main industry, tourism, we are at the bottom of the service chart, where once we used to be on top.\u00a0 The D-minus, something-for-nothing attitude that is constantly promoted by our government is responsible for this.\u00a0 Your best solution is get the foreign teachers back in the classrooms.\u00a0 It\u2019s not a hard decision.\u00a0 It\u2019s the best decision.<\/p>\n
