    WTF? Executive and Managing Director of Prospect Reef? WHAT THE F**K???????????? The place is complete RUBBLE! Wouldn’t it make sense to get a technical team to put an RFP together for a PPP to turn the place into a proper property? These things continue to happen and then we wonder why we have a COI? Surely these positions are going to be paid positions, with none of them having any hotel or other development experience whatsoever so where will that money come from to pay them and what are they actually bringing to the table? What is their mandate? What’s the Government’s vision for the property?

    A failure where ever they go.
