AG projects $60-million from economic citizenship program

Attorney General Levi Peter
Attorney General Levi Peter

Dominica is expected to earn some $60-million for the financial year from the government’s economic citizenship program.

This is the projection given by attorney general, Levi Peter, in parliament earlier this week.

“One will see from the estimates the projection is for some in excess of $60-million, in terms of revenue for 2013-2014,” he stated.

Peter pointed out that the program has great potential to assist a small state like Dominica.

“It has enormous potential to assist us a small nation state that does not necessarily has a huge amount of natural resources going for it,” he stated.

According to Peter, Dominica must be ‘ingenious’ when it comes to raising finance because most Dominicans don’t like to pay taxes. “We know that most of us, if not all of us, don’t like to pay taxes,” Peter stated. “And if we have to pay taxes, most of us if not all of us, like to pay the minimum possible. In those circumstance the country must run and we have to make a contribution to the financial functioning of the state.”

He argued that the economic citizenship program and other programs derived from it ‘are programs that will generate income revenue for the state.’

Peter is hoping that the program exceeds the projection made. “Even if one were to look at a sum approaching $60-million, one can see what that sum can do for our state,” he said.

In his budget presentation prime minister, Roosevelt Skerrit, said the existing program will be expanded to target investors who prefer fixed investments, such as real estate, and/or a local address.

    Dominica has one of the worst business climates in the OECS. Factors affecting Dominica’s business climate include the individual income tax, corporate income tax, Vat tax, & property tax.

    Dominicans do not like paying taxes. In bygone years they paid very little taxes which is why it is referred to a poor country. I often wondered how Dominica could survive. Times have changed and Dominica must change with the times.
    Dominicans will have to get used to paying their fair share of taxes. One way of doing this if it is not yet done is for the employed to pay income tax through payrolls.
    I reside in a country where if one wants to repair a shoe, a handbag, TV, Radio, etc., they must pay tax on them. In previous years we only paid for repairs; not so today.
    We pay tax for store purchases, groceries and others and on restaurant meals. Everywhere we turn we pay taxes. Our taxes are increasing such as property tax.
    This is what I heard an Ontario politician stated a few years ago: “We cannot go to the bathroom, bathe, brush our teeth, shave, cough and sneeze without paying taxes. This means, soap, toothpaste, shaving cream, toilet paper, face tissues, body lotions etc., are taxed. He made a good point.
    Some services are increased annually. When taxes are increased, obviously, we make a fuss but we still have to pay them. The saying, “Taxed to death and after death, for their estate.”
    As the words of a Trinidadian calypso: “Pay your taxes. Shut up and have respect” when Trinidadians commenced paying taxes or increased taxes in those days.
    In this country, those who owe the government tax will be called upon to pay up and to make arrangements to pay as soon as possible. They have no alternative but to do so. Otherwise their income will be garnished. Depending on how much they owe the government, their assets could be seized. Some of them may have to sell their houses or other property to pay the government for back taxes.
    I really do not view selling Dominica passports to investors as a wise idea. It appears to be an unsafe process. I do not like the idea. Those passports may get into the wrong hands and terrorists for that matter.

    Dominican passports are soon to become useless when travelling you will have to prove that you are not a terrorist when carrying one when entering another country other countries will know that anyone can buy one for the right price.

    Dominicans who are against this need to start an online petition to the US President Obama White House and US State Department through the US Embassy in Barbados to intervene because this will effect many countries if terrorists get their hands on Dominican passports and use the passports to enter countries to commit terrorist acts this is an international thing.

    mr AG, leave those comments for skerrit, what i want to hear is how much money(perdiem) you make going to dubai and are you retiring your advances, cause i know that civil servants as foolish as they are used to get 40us dollars per 24 hours and this government is now giving them 10us dollars per 24 hours. the pm getting 400-500us per 24hrs… and non of those servants talking.

    Clearly , we need some one to tell us since the introduction of the economic citizenship programme how much money that the country has earned and what has happen to that money? we need accountability!!!
    Since the Ag is now saying that Dominicans do not like paying taxes and wants to pay the minimum amount of tax, is the monies earned from this programme deducted from the taxes we are to pay? well then send me my deductible amount, since that is the alternative.
    Finally how many of these passports that has been revoked,if any, since there are so many bad deals that has gone on,
    I therefore reccommend that such a programme be closed, concentrate on agricultural production and processing, take controle of the mining that is given up for next to nothing, create proper beach access and increase promotion with warm diplomatic relations with the western bloc countries where our tourists come from, and while we have good relations with China & Japan, train our people in the knowledge and production of soft and hard ware because we are part of the electronic world too; we consume, we need to build and repair these stuff that is going to waste.

    To my Government I AM from south and what i seeing you’re doing is getting rich and giving us task force and police station, not even schools..

    But I want to tell you’ll the passport selling am not for that, and particularly the people you’ll selling to, the type of check you’ll doing on them, lack of records, along with account abilities, and why is that money going, finally who is selling our passport!!!

    60 million means 6000 passport to end up maybe in the wrong hands and the state defrauded…

    The job if an Attorney General is to carry out, explain and enforce the legal affairs of a State! The Attorney General is not a Comptroller or an accountant, He/She is not in a position to make ANY financial or budgetary projections. WHY DO OUR LEADERS BELIEVE WE ARE ALL NAIVE AND IGNORANT??? Sir, with all due respect, please get the HELL OUT OF HERE with your 60 million dollars projections. You are attempting to sway the votes of ignorant Dominicans with the mention of millions of dollars!
    Your projections would mean that the program already has applicants worth millions. Knowledgeable Dominicans know that this is very unrealistic and far-fetched to say the least. Given our lackluster Tourist Industry we know that there are not that much individuals interested in Dominica as you are suggesting!
    Applicants interested in the Economic Citizenship are those that have been to Dominica before and love the country and those folks are not many. Thus the majority of the applicants in your 60 million dollar projections are MOST LIKELY criminal elements seeking to either escape prosecution or expand their illegal enterprises. These type of people have the money and would be willing to pay any price for a safe haven where they could spread international destruction!
    DOMINICANS I URGE YOU TO COME OUT IN PROTEST OF THIS ECONOMIC CITIZENSHIP PROGRAM! Kill the Economic Citizenship Program now! Do not believe these POLITICAL LIARS!!!! Please make up your signs and come out in protest against this program NOW!!!!!!

    The “Dominicans don’t like taxes” who are you fooling. 15% Vat. Ridiculous port fees. And then there are all of those loans from other countries, especially China, which employ their workers (which is attributable to the attitude toward working of many Dominicans). Don’ see much progress or value for the dollars taken in. Nothing but a sell out.

    But hey, the rest of the Caribbean sells passports so why not join the club Not too long ago suspicion was caste on the whole idea. Beware of the sell out and take over.

      My friend compare $60mils to approx $!06mil which is assumed that is owing o the Treasury. DA is not manufacturing and production based. Then what? You are right this is the norm in the Region maybe for the mentioned reason. I totally agree that a monitoring method must be in place to avoid a back door take over in the future

    Mr. A.G can you also tell us how may of those people who buy our passports

    1)Come and reside in Dominica?
    2) Are known criminals in their countries and are running from justice?
    3)Do they come to Da to pick=up the passports?
    4) Who are the Dominican officials who are responsible for delivering the passports?
    5) Who collects the moneys?

    Dominicans, it is un-patriotic not to ask questions of elected officials. Open all you eyes.

    I find this projection to be rather interesting considering that only EC $27 million was recorded last year.

    Does this have anything to do with the fact that the case against Fontaine is coming up and I hear that the respondents must give the court the information.

    My sources tell me that Fontaine has solid information, which will once and for all expose the crookedness taking place. No wonder they are trying their best not to have the case called.

    Our Passp[orts are falling in the hands of Nefarious Characters,Thety may be rich but they are not involved in legal business.Of Course those agents who benefit wont see it that way .

  20. August 3, 2013

    Dominicans expect more services from the government every year… but want to pay lesser and lesser taxes. The solution is to, either pay more taxes for these services or widen the tax base and increase revenue. Soooo, unless we can grow the population overnight, or start exporting more goods/services, then they’ll have to promote programs like the economic citizenship program. It just needs to be well managed. Gee, I’d take it a step further… “Come to Dominica, build a multi million dollar complex (hotel, light manufacturing, etc) and we’ll lease the land for $99/year!”…. Afterall, the gov’t has a whole bunch of land sitting idle. [Find your Dominican roots: http://www.georgedefoe.tribalpages.com/%5D

      No! that’s the ‘projected’ figure. I’m amazed that the people of Dominica allow these kind of things to happen-and all they can do is write about it. Both leaders and followers; all are jokers.

  23. Discombobulated
    August 3, 2013

    The thing is, the guy is right. Dominicans don’t like to pay taxes. And furthermore, the authorities have not implimenting a way to collect taxes. Dominicans work on a cash in hand basis. The banking system has never really been used to its full potential, so you cannot track money at all.

    But the thing is, looking from the working man side of things. There is not enough money around to pay taxes anyway. Dominicans can barely survive on the little they currently make. How about you devise a way to tax more from the richer families in Dominica that seem to own everything, and let the poor man make his bread. How about trying to regulate the electricity, water and telephone companies in order to reduce their profits and increase competition in those sectors. Then, and only then can you consider implimenting a way to collect taxes. But you would also have to revolutionise the banking system and the way Dominicans are paid. Without a proper banking and payment system, monies due for taxes cannot be traced.

      My Friend what are You saying ? 15 cents on the Dollar of everything You consume is called what ?It is called VAT!Every Person and business on this Island is paying 15 cents on the Dollar to the Government!If the price of Goods and Services rise the Vat also rises .Please we are paying alot !We can afford to do away with income tax!
      PLEASE DO Not OVERLOOK THIS VAT!

      • Discombobulated
        August 3, 2013

        Every country pay vat. 15% is actually low for vat. Income tax is a different story. Every country also has income tax. Some even have inheritance tax, much less for income tax. I was merely stating what I think anyway. I did say however that most Dominicans do not make enough to pay taxes. I guess you overlooked that half of the comment.

    • anonymous2
      August 3, 2013

      Research the history of taxes. Taxes are meant to make the rich richer and keep the poor poor. No one needs taxes if they have a government that has people that understand that the country must be productive in order to have a viable economy.

      DA was productive under certain administrations and the British, but everything has been dismantled by people more interested in either padding their bank accounts or without the knowledge and initiative to make the island self-sufficient which it clearly has the ability to be. Vote wisely and not by color or party.

        If everyone would bear their responsibility as nationals, to their country, attend school, take their studies seriously and graduate, then seek employment and obtain one and contribute their fair share, probably, only then there would be no taxes.
        Since some are unemployed and the government must provide financial assistance for their livelihood, including maintaining other services and paying public servants, the employed must pay taxes.
        It is bad enough that the government receives loans and grants to sustain Dominica in general. This is also from taxpayers’ money. Everyone worldwide pays taxes, income and goods and service.
        With the types of people who exist, some of whom do not like working or seeking employment of whatever nature that they are qualified to perform and are doing absolutely nothing to help themselves, taxes are inevitable.
        Too often the government is blamed. Do not always place the blame on the government for the failure of some nationals. This is a worldwide situation.

    Should that amount of funds be realized from the economic citizenship program, in time, Dominica should be a rich country with no deficit, making Dominicans rich. Poverty will be eliminated once and for all. Good luck to this foresight and continued project.

  32. zammy
    August 2, 2013

    One big question is, why cant the government make public the amount of money realised from the program so far? Give out the exact amount so that the people will be clear about every dollar. Would the government make public the names of those who are involved in the program? Those who make the contacts and deliver the passports? Are they working on a voluntary basis or are they paid? If Yes how much are they paid?
    Give a nice break down of the countries who beinfit from the program? Give a list of those who got passports and whats the price of a passport so that citizens can do their own maths. Our government is very transparent but we need such info. Its nice to see the AG speaking but he needs to speak on other issues and investigate other issues in his capacity as defender of the laws of the country….
    But pleas MR AG dont allow the passports to be sold to folks who dont even know if Dominica exist? Don’t post passports to folks like Christmas or thank You cards…. cause its been alleged that some folks have passports and dont even know how to spelll Dominica or where the Island is located! Remember the US and Other big nations dont play and will never allow such citizens to enter their country…. Please make sure that Dominicans who travel internationally dont get problems because of such issues…
    Dominicans struggle to much overseas to get a work permit, visa and even a passport for our passports to be given to folks that easily…. AG please negotiate with the big countries on behalf of Dominicans cause out there life aint easy…

    Countries with much less resources than dominica find a way to make use of them without selling themselves. Our leaders are too ******* Lazy and lack vision instead of selling passport develop programs to help people when they leave school so they wouldn’t end up dead on boats trying to earn $$ by smuggling drugs and guns.

    August 2, 2013

    Mr. Peter has apparently refrained, like everyone else in his cabinet, from telling us how much was made in the last few years. Are they not able to tell us? Is it because no records are kept? And Mr. Peter’s reference to Dominicans not wanting to or not liking to pay taxes is absolutely rude and out of place. However we hear it all the time from the government ministers………making reference to the Dominican people as being the worst that they could be and culpable for everything that is going wrong. Now this reference to them not wanting to pay taxes gives them the green light to do whatever they like with the economic citizenship program as they now have an excuse. Hmmmmmmmm, where next????

    Where did the U$400,000.00 go to. The same amount that alledgedly Susan Olde gave to, we know whom, in exchange for our diplomatic passport? That question has never been answered by Skerritt, or the DLP Govt.

    How much did Corallo give in exchange for his diplomatic passport? The guy Italian police looking for all now AG?

    How much did Leroy Parris (Former CLICO boss)give too for his passport and buying of our diplomatic immunity? we get to know all those secret deals. You all just cannot say is not true. After the millions gone, that man still have our diplomatic passport, nuh? tell us AG

    What about the forgery regarding Birth Certificates? Our Passports for sale, Middle East, Asia and God knows where, to whom or for how much.

    Why can’t the Ministry or Minister of Finance give the Dominican people comprehensive financial accounts of the sales of our passports? How many investors have invested in the economy? What are the names and country of origin of those who possess our passports? Areas of investments by those foreigners, etc., etc.?

    Dominicans continue to be fooled about those sale of passports. Because investments by those foreigners, holders of our passports, are nowhere to be seen on island. Dominica for sale to the highest bidder.

    A few are making plenty, plenty money. the majority reeling in poverty. Living from pay cheque to pay cheque/ from hand to mouth.

    The sale of Public Works area to the Chinese is ECP? The proposed (CMC) setting up of Chinese in the thousands in Portsmouth ECP too? Chinese stores/little boutiques taking over Roseau is part of ECP. Tell us. Where are the investments?

    But irrespective of what concerns Dominicans have, that Govt. refuse to even listen. Right now, it seems VAT and selling of Passports are the main revenue earners for the Nature Isle? Sick!! Sick!!! Sick!!!!

    See what so many Dominicans are permitting a few “in power” to do to them and their country. Enslaved again and again and again. How long? Not long.

    Since the first program failed and produced virtually no tangible results, the only way government can generate $60-million from this project,it must ensure that those who wish to obtain economic citizenship should invest in the island.

      Who do you think? Also criminals that are unable to obtain a Passport from their own Country. I never heard of a person who is unable to obtain a Passport from his birth place, unless that person was a criminal.

    We as natives are finished. Where in Dominica are they going to house all these FOREIGNERS? They the politicians them-selves don’t care. Their only passion is their pocket. The politicians have the “get rich or die trying” mentality.

    That’s the only job of the AG. is good for. If the Government expect to collect $60 million, the BOYS will get $200 million.

    Crazy! Crazy! Crazy! we must be really deperate in Dominica, that in light of all that is happening in the world to day with terrorists and spies we are still willing to sell our citizenship to all and sundry.
