New Jersey voters in both parties have begun to vote to select their nominees for governor in the June 10 primary election. This spring, the USA TODAY Network New Jersey Editorial Board convened conversations with nearly all of the major candidates. We talked broadly about their campaigns, their agendas if nominated and elected and about the impact of the administration of President Donald Trump.

Once again, I feel compelled to revisit the pressing issue of succession planning in the Turks and Caicos Islands, particularly within our public institutions such as law enforcement and corrections. In a country with some of the most educated and talented native population, despite continued discussions on capacity building and local empowerment, it seems progress remains elusive—if not stagnant. A glaring example lies within our prison system.

As simple as building a boat ramp or procuring a seaworthy offshore maritime vessel, can it deliver positive benefits to the Grand Turk boating community and the public at large? There’s no ideology intended in this suggestion; the goal is achievability and yes it will. There is no downside, only obvious benefits. Let’s stop the promises and just make it happen. An ancillary, but equally important benefit is to build a dock so boaters can properly service their vessels.

Culture is the soul of a people—it shapes identity, fosters unity, and anchors communities through trials and triumphs. In the case of the Turks and Caicos Islands (TCI), culture has historically been rooted in respect, resiliency, a gritty determination, reverence for the rule of law, and above all, a deep respect for human life. Somewhere along the way, that strong cultural foundation has begun to crack. The truth is, our culture has been fractured for quite some time.

By Ed ForbesTurks and Caicos, April 10, 2025 – I felt compel to put pen to paper on this matter once again. You don’t expect to slam your brakes in paradise. But in Grand Turk, it’s becoming routine. Donkeys roaming on the side of the roads, darting into traffic or packs of feral dogs guarding the neighborhoods. Tourists freeze as animals charge across roads. This isn’t just island charm anymore—it’s an unfolding dilemma. I’ve had near-misses myself. And I’m not alone.
