NEW ZEALAND VAT CONSULTANTS: So we have experts from NZ here to advice our Government on VAT… Let’s really think about this for a second. Here’s a quick comparison of both countries: New Zealand in 2012 had 1 MURDER per 100,000 persons / The Bahamas had 33 MURDERS per 100,000 persons… WOW New Zealand has one of the world’s BEST EDUCATIONAL Products – The Bahamas NOT. New Zealand is one the least CORRUPT countries on earth – The Bahamas… Well we know! New Zealand has a robust FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT which greatly empowers its citizens – The Bahamas NOT. New Zealand has an Office of the OMBUDSMAN that packs a punch – The Bahamas NOT. New Zealander’s have very HIGH CONFIDENCE in Government – Bahamians have very little (even when ya party in power). New Zealand has a NATIONAL LOTTERY – The Bahamas has illegal webshops enriching a few individuals. New Zealand CIVIL SERVICE is mostly by contract or private management – The Bahamas… Hugely overstaffed and underperformed. New Zealand has clear separation between CHURCH & State (majority are non-religious) – The Bahamas is 96% Christian with it entrenched in Education & way of life. Why on earth would we think ANYTHING implemented in this country could possibly resemble what’s happening in New Zealand??? The differences are just too vast. The New Zealand consultants shouldn’t be here for VAT, they should be here to SHOW OUR GOVERNMENT HOW TO GOVERN!!! #WakeUpBahamas
