- President of The Bahamas Agriculture and Marine Science Institute (BAMSI) Godfrey Eneas, on Monday presented a copy of his book, Agriculture in The Bahamas, to Manuel Messina, country representative for the Inter-American Institute for Cooperation on Agriculture (IICA) in the Bahamas on his departure from the Bahamas after a five-year stint. Mr. Eneas said, “this book is a small token of our appreciation for the immense work you have done while here in The Bahamas, especially with BAMSI.”
Every five years, IICA stations a representative in The Bahamas (and other member states) to encourage and support the country’s efforts to achieve agricultural development.

We’ve all heard the saying, “You can’t know what a person is going through without walking a mile in their shoes,” and the same is true of our fellow countries and cultures. Stereotypes have been created for every country, and only the people who live in that country or are committed to knowing more will know the truth.
Recognizing the misinformation that was readily available to tourists and neighboring countries, Godfrey Eneas committed to telling the important stories of The Bahamas — more specifically, he explains, “the historical and contemporary narratives analyzing where The Bahamas is and how The Bahamas got there” — in his book, Road to Bahamaland: The Story of The New Bahamas (Media Enterprises Ltd.)
