    I think it is time that we have a local Governor. Lemuel Hurlston, Donnie Ebanks, George McCarthy, would all be great candidates for that position.

    Like many I never heard if tis man until now. Its disgraceful how many are throwing him to the dogs based on his religion without even having done any research on his past. This is what’s wrong with a lot of us jumping to conclusions listening to others without questioning, are you really a f@cking numb sheep??

    And you call yourself a real ”Christian” do me a favour and take a good look at yourself in the mirror, from the brief research I see this man is very much about helping others especially people in need, he as done a lot of charity work and to boost education and the youths.

    every religion fundamentals are about respect, love and helping each other, lets stop the assumptions of every Muslim being a radical since not every Christian is a pedophile.

    Posters! it is what it is. We are a British Overseas Territory/Colony. The UK has sent us a Governor as it is their right to do so under our current constitution.

    It amazes me that most of you pick on the Appointee, from his colour to his religion, to his wife’s mode of dress. What about the Appointer? If you truly have the future of this country at heart, then lets decide our destiny together. Where do you want to be in twenty five years? Set a date, make a plan, work on you plan.

    Caymanians, please:
    Ensure that you get a good education;
    strive to gain quality experience;
    exercise the community spirit from our grandparents.. its takes a village;
    have more than two kids….if you have the support;
    stop selling your land…lease it;
    car pool;
    practice your Christian faith without judgment of others;
    encourage your kids to be entrepreneurs;
    join a local charity to benefit you Caymanians;
    enjoy your environment, people pay big to come here;and
    don’t let anyone steal your laughter.

    Visitors and residents:
    be respectful of what attracted you here in the first place;
    become our friend before you think you know us;
    check you attitude at the airport before you get on CAL;
    enjoy our culture, yes we do have one;
    This is our country, and we have invited you to visit or work/stay with us…that’s a good thing;
    some of us have given you references for WP, PR, Status, created businesses with you, married you, promoted you, trained you, and even thought you better than us; and
    This is still paradise on earth.. don’t spoil it …help us keep it that way.

    Residents and those seeking PR:

    Do something for this country that is not for personal gain; be selfless, just once.

          The British people also voted for Brexit. The areas that were LEAST “British” voted against the Brexit.

          Interestingly, those areas also happened to makeup the economic powerhouse of the country.

          There is a reason why Cameron was so warned against his ill-conceived referendum – those in the know KNEW the true heart and soul of their people.

          I understood early on the great divide between the British government and the British people.

          Therefore, please spare me the crap about immigrant-loving Brits. It is a fantasy supported by nothing but hollow rhetoric.

          The proof is in the booth – and the pudding is setting.

    And his wife apparently dresses as a Muslim woman ( why wouldn’t she?). Can we make sure Julianna does not refer to them as savages as she did Hindus some years back? And if Caymanians don’t like it, can they please do what the Bahamas did all these years ago, which was MASSIVELY praised by Steve ( sorry, Dr they are all calling him now) McField and Orrett Connor on Radio Cayman when they said that by Pindling bringing in in a black Bahamian government it restored dignity and self worth to Bahamians even though they went through a few years of “difficulties” after Pindling took over. The brainiac twins Connor and The Doctor, said that Cayman had rich people who had grown rich of the backs of Caymanians. Obviously true, but the implication was that they are all foreigners, so no Merrens, Nauls, Bobbys, Al Thompson, Fosters, Renees, Norbert’s, Jims, Rex, Kirkconnells, Selkirk etc etc. It was the most racist broadcast I have ever heard on Radio Cayman……no mention of the thousands of Caymanians who have benefitted from the Bahama’s downfall, including Connor, retired on a large government pension Bahamians would die for.

      Say what you want, but at the end of the day the Bahamians realised their own people being brushed aside in their own country by foreigners and they refused to stand idly by.

      Of course it was “controversial” at the time, because how dare Black and Brown Caribbean people stand up to White Brits, Americans and Europeans for their most natural of rights…in their own country, no less.

      Fast-forward to today and we see the nation of Bahamas, though not perfect, able to boast of a workforce and economy not only predominantly manned by its own people but them partaking of the lion’s share as well.

      Granted many people cannot stomach that sequence of events, but oh well. Such is life.

      Caymanians could learn a thing from the Bahamians – and not very much from those in our midst that decry the brave decisions thereof.

        Fair enough. So ask for independence to raise your own people. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that and hopefully the Caymanian workforce will predominantly man the economy and have a better share in its benefits. Britain will grant independence by return of email or diplomatic pouch and be glad to be rid of this annoying anachronism of a colony.

            I’m not sure who you are responding to 10:15, but I don’t think anyone is critising any group of peoples desire for dignity and social and economic worth which hopefully independence brings. I hope one day we will get it in Cayman. Sir Lyndon Pindling deserves much credit for taking the Bahamas into independence but his record of criminality after that is most disturbing as a minor amount of googling (if your memory fails you) will show. The pictures painted by Steve McField and Orrett Connor of both the Bahamas (very positive) and the Cayman Islands (only good for a few rich off the backs of Caymanians) the other morning on Radio Cayman were very distorted and biased to exemplify their own race based prejudices.

        Basically true, but what an absolute s##t hole Nassau has become. The problem with your argument is that the majority of wealth is still foreign and the majority of crime committed by Bahamians on Bahamians, with some of the worst gun crime in the Caribbean/Atlantic islands.

        Feel free to rebel if that is your cause, but remember what happened in Bermuda last time they tried an illegal insurrection, or Grenada for that matter.
        Your child gang bangers are no match for the UK military or specialist police units, and your so called activists can’t even get a few hundred people out to protest or sign a petition.

        You also conveniently appear to forget that the Bahamas, like Cayman and most other Caribbean islands, were originally founded and populated by those white Europeans you so obviously despise. Caribbean people, unless descended from native Indian nations, came originally from Africa and Europe, get over it. Without the institutions and support those Caribbean country’s have inherited or received post war, they would have nothing except internal strife and chaos. See Jamaica for reference.

        Leave your pathetic threats for those who can’t fight back, like your victims of domestic violence or child abuse. Pick your cowardly fights better my friend, because the more guns that arrive on this island will bring mothers intervention that much closer and your dreams of self determination that much further away.

    We already have military arms that originated from Haiti on our streets, that came via Jamaica from far back as 2005. A few grenades and other explosives won’t be a problem for the Jamaican canoes to bring along as well.

    With about 8 illegal canoes that arrive into the Cayman Islands on a monthly basis, it seems very plausible.

          Missed the mark. Muslims believe Jesus to be a prophet, in the same manner as Mohamed or Moses. They believe that Mohamed was the final prophet, with the Qu’ran acting like a revision to the Torah and Gospels (Think of it as Act III of the Abrahamic Trilogy). Further, they believe that there was no “son” of God, because the idea of God having a son diminishes the concept of God by ascribing human characteristics to God.

      Couldn’t agree more with the comment. However if you live here I would urge you to understand that we are the CAYMAN ISLANDS AND NOT THE GRAND CAYMANS.
      It is very irksome to most Caymanians when one does not refer to our country in the correct way.
      Thanks

        The Caymans is a perfectly accruate geographical term to refer to Grand Cayman and the Lesser Caymans.

          Quit trying to make that a thing. It isn’t. We are the Cayman Islands or simply Cayman.

            Nope, Caymans is fine too. I am looking at a sea chart on my wall that has the Caymans marked as such.

      Yep. Peru is a UN member with a significant real economy and major diplomatic implications for international affairs. No comparison at all.

    Yes Governor, don’t be put off by the sentiments on this forum.

    Although I know it will all be very familiar considering your background and naturalized citizenship.

    Tigers, stripes and all that jazz…even far from home – the nerve, eh?

    A return to the old form, career diplomat gets sunset posting to the Caribbean. One who has been off the front lines for most of his career but nonetheless has a long history of service. Also a continuation of the appointment of diplomats of higher calibre than we had in-between Owen and Taylor (Dinwiddy and Jack were out of their depth). Finally, another nudge towards diversity but this time on an ethnic basis rather than gender. Overall an interesting appointment that suggests the UK is not too concerned about Cayman’s fundamental health at this time.

      No amount of nudging will ever bring even a speck of ethnic representation in Cayman’s elected Government despite a large number of expatriate voters. So much for diversity in this country.

        Attitudes have to change first, and I don’t see anyone – Caymanian or expat – urging the upheaval upon us that widening the franchise and eligibility for election would bring any time soon. Nudging does change attitudes over time, so I say it’s another step in the right direction. Moves like this can have huge symbolism. Reminds me of the Queen driving King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia around Balmoral while in Saudi women cannot drive at all. She was in a position to make a point and made it by both the fact she was driving and the way she drove (confidently chatting while being urged by the King to follow the road). The UK does something similar every time it appoints a governor. Whoever they appoint will be here for 3, maybe 4 years and there’s nothing anyone here can do about that person whoever they are and however they do the job, so society ends up changing ever so slightly in the direction of the example set by the governor. Witness the impact the current governor has had on LGBTQ issues without hardly ever addressing them and the belated, far from complete adoption of ‘good governance’ instilled by Taylor. The UK has to respect our autonomy as self-determining people but it can send us a message every few years that lasts for the duration of a governor’s term and beyond. Installing a naturalised Brit of Bangladeshi origin as our de-facto head of state – someone to whom we will have to defer in all settings for years – is a message. It will mess with the political heads in this country to have to think of someone of Choudhury’s background as anyone other than an immigrant and the UK will enjoy their discomfort. We all know our politicians are not the most enlightened, but Choudhury’s appointment is one more way they will learn that high office is about ability not identity. This is already a diverse country but political power is not shared by Caymanians and economic power is not shared by expatriates. We have decades to go to become an integrated society, one nudge at a time.

          “This is already a diverse country but political power is not shared by Caymanians and economic power is not shared by expatriates. We have decades to go to become an integrated society, one nudge at a time.”

          Are you referring to the Cayman islands?

      you have an unemployment rate that many countries would give their eye teeth for. Accept that in every society there is a group of people that for many reasons are unemployable e.g. those with mental health issues, those with particular disabilities, those with drug and alcohol abuse issues, those with no skills and at the end of that list perhaps the work shy. It is my considered opinion that the work shy in most countries are a tiny minority.

    Welcome Mr. Choudhury. Please don’t be put off by some of the gibberish written in the comments section of this website.
