      Yah great for those who cam afford it. What u should know is that most Jamaicans are not financially able to own anything in Jamaica. The people them coming from overseas who have 🇺🇸 USA, 🇨🇦, UK 🇬🇧 money can buy business.
      That's is why most Jamaican leave and live overseas as it is cheaper and safer. It cheaper to buy a house in USA Connecticut and some of the souther and middle states.
      Food is much cheaper in several European countries. My aim is to start a business lucrative and have a second citizenship in a next country like a small island Canada or UK.

I cannot understand why this is happening. Highly insulting! You cannot have "development" without local people.

      The problem is Jamaica has a old British charter /law in the system that they choose to use against the citizens that state the the beaches are not the property of the citizens , and the government use that against the citizens while selling the beach front property to the foreign developers.

    So, this video renewed my hope that Black people can indeed own and control businesses!
    Black people need to own and control businesses all along the supply chain - from manufacturing to packaging to distribution to warehousing to retail that sets the foundation for inter-generational wealth!

    Gentrification is not just unique to Jamaica- this is a universal issue. Without investment whether internationally or locally, the person who would have invested in a property would have experienced no return on their investment “stagnant.” No one invests to see no return. International investment also has a positive impact at a macro level for obvious reasons- boosts employment, the value of other properties in surrounding areas appreciates which is beneficial to all Jamaicans, development drives productivity in other industries, and I could go on and on. Too often we hear the same narrative that the “AVERAGE” Jamaican cannot afford. What does the average Jamaican mean to you? For me, the average Jamaican is more than someone who earns minimum wage. There are plenty of Jamaicans that can afford a median home for $20M.
    Moreover, I would urge fellow listeners instead of complaining, strategize instead. What methods can I use to acquire said property; can I pool with others with similar interests; how can I increase my income; what investments do I have already that can be liquidated and rerouted elsewhere? The reality is, it will not get easier.

      Historically, the money leaves the country. What's the point of paying the locals starvation wages? More money needs to stay in country even if it's only for investing in the education of the people as the good brother suggested education is critical. Your argument is what they teach in graduate school which is about extricating as much as you can, typical business model, and always exploitive.

    I applaud and appreciate all hotel owners who allow locals to have free access to beaches. I was in Negril on Friday and was so surprised and pleased that we were allowed to walk through Travellers to go to the beach. We were also allowed to park on their property. The security guard was very polite and professional. I will spend my money with these hotels that allow Jamaicans to enjoy the beaches for free. Where a fee is charged to use the bathroom, I think that's fair, because the persons who clean them have to be paid.
    On the other hand, if free access is given to all beaches, the hustlers should not harass tourist to buy their goods / services. I think they should have permit to be in the space and have designated areas where what they are selling can be displayed. Jamaica is one of the very few countries that allow hotels to shut out the locals from the best beaches. The government can change the laws that allow that to happen but they just don't want to. Shame on them. It's issues like these that should determine who gets votes during elections. Hats off to the hoteliers who have the interest of the locals at heart.

      The funny thing about the beach story is as kids growing up in Negril we who live on the West End only used to go to the beaches on Holidays or to pick Breadfruit and Coco Plum.We love swimming and diving of the cliffs in West End. As kids we would walk the beach go in any of the few Hotels and pickup tennis balls for a game of cricket. Our hometown has changed so much. You could stopped anywhere on the beach and take a swim. That's why we have to cherish what we have or else someone will take it from you.

      I was driving through Negril the other day and I was having an epiphany on the whole area. The strip was so dark and gloomy with little lights here and there from establishments, it looks even worse when it rains as it highlights the potholes and water puddles along the road ways. As much as it is nice and still my home the appeal is being lost with the lack of improvements or even maintenance. Oh that Park has been a sore point for me as I remember when the Govt back in the days blocked it all up when it was our place to go and play as kids.

    Owning a home in Jamaica should not be a necessity but an option. I have noticed over the years that when it comes to housing people both governments are informally ignorant. They should know that in no country every citizen can own a home. To balance the houssing problem they have to build multi dwelling rental apartments for middle and low income workers. These should be built in cities and towns. Right now there is a housing problem. Every where you go in Jamaica you hear people asking for room to rent. This i effects young professonals mostly. Most of them just left college with student fee and other expences who would like to rent an appartment in a Housing Trust ,or prvate sector rental apartment compex. Why stress them out to find a place to live. The PNP and THe JLP are stuck in the pass when it comes to housing When will they realise that home ownership and muliti rentsls go hand in hand?

    Small street vendors must not be allowed to erect huts or shacks along the street. These unsightly looking structures need to be illegal. The local government and non governmental organizations need to develop a structure that the street vendors must purchase at minimal price.
    Such structural change will add value to the community.

His ideas is wonderful, I love how he is pushing for the betterment for the country and the Jamaican people. I think he would make a good priminister for the country, what he speaks of for one area is what’s needed in the whole island, he should really consider and run for priminister. I am Jamaican born, live in Canada 🇨🇦 for the most of my life you could say my entire life and I never stop wanting wishing to move back home, the Jamaicans abroad want to come home just the violence that worries us but that happens because the people are hungry and when you’re hungry you become angry , I think as a people this can become a reality, Jamaica 🇯🇲 rise to a place where its people are the first priority and their well being is at the for front.
