To be clear, many large nations such as the UK, USA, Austria, Germany, Spain and Portugal also monetize their nationality through similar programs. The issue is not so much the program as the manner in which it is being run by relevant parties.
The US does it, so does the UK and Australia, Portugal, Spain, France it only seems to be a problm to most when a 3rd world country want a piece of the pie
Getting a new passport through the CBI program only gives you access. It does not guarantee a new identity. So propagating the idea that this is cause for concern is misleading. In fact it has become the lifeline for the country's economy so keep selling those passports.
It gives one a Plan B. Even Americans who are seeing the writing on the wall in their own country. Pair this affordable citizenship with one or two others and a residence permit or two, then one is on their way to full diversification and the ability to escape a repressive regime.
The US and the EU is by no means the barometer for what is good practice. Their only concern is a fear of competition and the rapidly changing world that allows countries like Dominica to have an equal bite of the cake. Evidence of how most of the money is being spent can be seen all around Dominica in the government housing program. It would be naive to think that in this over finantialized economic system operating in the West bad actors would not show their ugly heads. Similarly many of our local bad actors on the outside of government are mortified that they too cannot get their hands on some of the goodies (not for the want of trying) but instead pretend they possess greater morals and higher values. Not true after all they also aspire to be in power and power does corrupt.
Hey thanks for sharing, in all these things you become exposed to the good, the bad and the ugly. May Abba Yah give us only what is for our highest good as a people, in Yahshua's name. Amen
@@dobriltanev9722 🤣🤣🤣 I was simply using them as a example. Dominica is beautiful and I’d love to visit the nature that but to claim it is affordable is incorrect. But these news outlets don’t represent the majority they represent the rich and provide their news based on whats best for corporations (their advertisers) and the rich. I literally don’t know anyone who would think 100k is affordable and I live in the Bay Area around lots of high earners. These people are not rich though as the cost of living here is exceptionally high
My favorite place. And I got beat out of money last year on a piece of land. So hopefully one day I can afford this. It's a beautiful place. But the local economy is not great anymore. The natural citizens are in a bad place and the government doesn't care.
What a very ignorant and inaccurate statement the construction projects taking place are obviously creating employment for the citizens and no doubt with the creation of a new airport certainly more investment will be coming!
@@hansonjarvis2222 look at the first set of government housing in trinidad that were giving to the political supporters it because a shanty town in beetam port of spain
As much as I don't like the passport sale program, it would have served the people of Dominica better if the powers that be was using the funds for the economic development of the people, instead it is used for fattening of the pockets of the gang and the crumbs go to the supporters in the form of housing and money when they need it by going in person to the PM It is 5 years or so hurricane Maria hit the Island and there still houses covered with tarpaulin most of them being none DLP supporters The d/a life looks great from articles, adds, and the voices of party supporters, but it is said "is who in the kitchen feeling the heat "
Stop the lies! People, if you want a clearer and objective outlook on passport selling in Dominica, I'd advise you to watch the excellent documentary by Al Jareeza called Diplomats for Sale. Search for it on RUclips.
@@TaiwoWilliams Which video? The one where Linton and two others are shown scheming to offer diplomatic passports in exchange for funds that were to be routed to Dominica under the guise of "humanitarian assistance?" You realize that to this day, Linton cannot deny that it was his signature that appears on that promissory letter, right? Just keep spewing your foolishness here and there without informing yourself!

Many european countries also have this programme.
Cyprus, Spain, Portugal, Austria etc.
invest on putting better mental health Care in Dominica !
Absolutely!
I get its going towards good causes and I do feel sympathy for their situation but this is rife for abuse by bad actors.
Okay I feel your energy
No it is not!
They do alot of background checks and investigates
J’aime Dominica 🇩🇲. France24 anglais est la place seulement où je reçois mon télé journal
Sounds really suss no passports should be for sale.
The US does it, so does the UK and Australia, Portugal, Spain, France it only seems to be a problm to most when a 3rd world country want a piece of the pie
Why not you can get it by marrying and or living and working there for years. In which cases means you got it for free😂😂
Why not marry your single women off direcrly instead of having them depend on government services indirectly from this? Cut the middle man out.
Single women aren't objects or property you Pratt! They are entitled as much autonomy as ANY single man! FFS!

iLoveDominica!
Sad state of affairs....no industry and any form of employment for the citizens.
What a very ignorant and inaccurate statement the construction projects taking place are obviously creating employment for the citizens and no doubt with the creation of a new airport certainly more investment will be coming!
no rent for the apartment. a shanty town in 40 years because of no money to repair the buildings.
Utter nonsense.

Nope it’s just an airport
Dominica does not have an international airport! Lol The citizens have been promised for years, but it's been used for political pawning.
