Bermuda is a bigger tourist destination than St Lucia despite her smaller size yet she not selling an inch of land to these foreign entities. Don”t you get it? The Governments pass and present is guilty of “selling out we patrimony” and this is equivalent to high treason.

In reply to Ken Monplay.

Fool this tourism trip is sure to make us worst beggars than we are now. The pittance paid to local workers by the foreign hoteliers who get all kinds of concessions to come to St. Lucia and contribute so little taxes is not worth the cost of theis massive sellout.

I see it as a good step!! The more vacation accomodations the more tourists that will come. If you’all pulled your dumb-ass heads out of the sand, you’d realize we are a tourism dependent nation. To move forward and prosper without always exending our begging hand to taiwan or China for a bit of their tablescraps to fall into, yo’d soon realize we need development to truely remain a independent nation. I say,”sell it, pave it”. so we can get on with making a living serving the tourist sector. That is our future! embrace it or get out of the way, and get left behind! I’m no fool, I’m climbing on board for the profitable ride. See Ya beggars!

Has anyone seen the Anthony Bourdain CNN Special on Port Antonio (Jamaica’s Soufriere) ? Watch this in its entirety and this will give you a clear insight as to what’s happening all over the Caribbean Islands . This CNN Special gives a clear insight of how Hotelier Politicians view there Caribbean Pristine Treasures it’s all about business ; BIG BUSINESS, and the average Joe has nothing to gain. There is no more Mayberry in the Caribbean.

Its a rap sign sealed and delivered. Sad to say this is happening all over the Caribbean the country needs development and investments (so they say) Hotelier Politician has salivated of the idea of having high end development of the Pitons for years and I would not be surprise if there is a secret pop up art of the development some where around of which they agree or should I say greed to. Money loves money and their vision and platform on which they stand is a St Lucia of high end developments they will NEVER publicly admit to this . There is more than one way to kill a Mocking Bird.

Make no joke, when hungry bellies and abused people see the the only spoils to be enjoyed are but by a privileged few and they know the spoilts were stolen from them and their forebears it makes for a dangerous concoction of deadly revolt. History is replete with it, modern society are filled with the results of the now generation fighting back and ravaging their own countries to roll back what took many generations to come to fruition , Is this what we want. No!!!. So it is time to tell the corrupt politicians Stop!!!!

I hate to say it, but successive Governments have pushed St Lucians to the brink for mere pittance from foreigners and this even more bankrupt Government is no different if not worse, Unless we take stock now we will one day wake up and find every thing we value in the hands of foreigners and Lucians going to what ever lengths necessary to reclaim their heritage. Even violence and bloodletting, Our politicians are doing to us what the British and coloni, l powers did to African nations which see the kinds of events which transpires in Zimbabwe today in a misguided attempt to right the wrongs of the past. Is it when these places start to go up in flames and Lucians stricken by poverty begin to behave like the people in the streets of Haiti, and these businesses start to require heavy military like security {like I see all over certain Latin American countries} to guard their turf, our politicians will learn, Or when arnachy begins to transform this once peaceful tranquil paradise into a war zone and our loving people take up arms against their own government, and civil strife and disobedience becomes the order of the day the gargoyles and parasites which see no evil with the treachery of elected officials be satisfied to say enough is enough and pull support from these jackals we are forced to elect election after election. I may sound harsh and crude if not insane, but the stage is being set for future homegrown acts of terrorism in the name of freedom. Make no joke, when…

Kenny wants a hotel on every beach, he is selling St. Lucia at jammet prices, and we are talking jammet specials. The only place all the neg will be able to swim is in the river mouths.

Good stuff. Keep the property developers out They are complete parasites and will stop at nothing to make a quick buck.

I defy you to look at pictures of old fishing villages, then see the dirty skyscrapers built on them and say it’s better now.
