Common Political practices in the B.V.I somewhat slitely differ, but the similarity of mindset take preimmanance over good administrative judgments most of the times.
Four hundred, and seventy (470) person have applied for residence, forty-seven (47) approved 10%.
Was this fairly done, seeing many have resides in the B.V.I for 20 plus year, others 25 plus, I believe, but because of who they are, or are not, and what are their material posession, or do not, they were been ignored. This does not means the all persons that are living in the B.V.I should be given residence, but to the contrary, if the devil, and his demons, figuratively speaking of course, wants permanent residence in the B.V.I all they have to do are to insure that the current cabinet stays in power, skin color, religious beliefs, appearances, countries of origin, etc., ect., wouldn't matter., no denial, no delay.
People who do recognize or have failed to recognized other humans as the Created equal via practical actions see the presence, and future though dark lenses. Moreover, people that place a higher value on lifeless things above the Almighty God of all Creations, and other humans have been badly devilceaved (deceived)
Do good for others as you would have them do good to you.
God is Love, Truthful, faithful, and fair minded, not was, not will be, but practically good presently, unlike us man to man, (human to human) hypocrites.
No government is giving away any country, it needs to fill it with people to help the country grow, and develop into the next century, if not ,it will continue to lag behind another forty years. Marriage will decline, job position will be fill with outsiders, and the defense system will be overrun with people who make their own laws as they go about. why do you think some countries strive in peace, support in education, health, social services etc. this is simple because the system put in place includes all citizens and residents to contribute with fairness that justify their contribution.
Every time I go immigration to check my application it ain’t ready yet now for 3 years and counting
