From Claire Frankel on Opinion: Immediate action required at Saba Comprehensive School

Saba has many educated snowbird residents who start returning to our island in the November to January time frame. And stay through April/May. We could provide teaching in our major subjects, tutoring and/or assistance in classrooms. Just appoint a Liaison person to catalog the need in each classroom and match it up with a willing snowbird. I can teach Math and business computer skills.

From BES Islander on Saba Launches Publicroam and Govroam in government buildings

How amusing that on the new (2024) government wifi initiative “publicroam” in the dropdown list of countries there is no “BES Islands”, there is no “Dutch Caribbean”, there is no “Caribisch Nederland” – the only option is “Netherlands Antilles”. Wasn’t this replaced 14 years ago?

From R Lee on Monopoly and Outdated Cables Keep Internet Expensive on BES Islands

I recall, Saba announced with pride about installing more fiber. Then the Dutch government denied Sabans the use of airwaves and satellites providers, like Starlink.
Now, an article about the expense of fiber.

Is this just preparatory news to soften the blow of how much that fiber project will be costing the people?

Air is free. Fiber is not.

If only there was a satellite provider that provided high speed worldwide internet to remote places at an affordable cost….oh thats right…there is….Perhaps Approve Starlink for use in Saba!

From Chad on Monopoly and Outdated Cables Keep Internet Expensive on BES Islands

Here is a crazy thought. License STARLINK! No subsidy needed, $80 for quality Internet… Let the local companies resell the equipment, do installations and process payments. They still make their money and keep staff, but the rest of us win with better internet.

Why then all that pride about glass-fibre cables on Saba?

There needs to be a bylaw/ ordinance that requires these items to be removed. Non registered non insured vehicles must be removed from properties!! Not a big issue to make a new policy and ordinance!

This seems like a positive step toward helping employers manage the impact of rising labour costs. Reducing the healthcare premium
