    Wow! How Jamaica has changes since I was there in 1994. Back then, many of the small road were full of potholes, and some crazy drivers overtook on bends. And lorries with seriously wobbling wheels.
    OK there are still some potholes. But at least most of the roads seem a lot better.

    Jamaica is such a beautiful country, and Jamaican alike is loving people. There is a few problems-which needs to be addressed, which are:
    A lack of opportunities, bad governance and education which centred more to the west rather than an education that reminds us of our true history then show us how to undo the willy Lynch syndrome which causes a lack of love towards of fellow brothers and sisters as Jamaican.
    Like many Jamaican in the uk and around the world I would love to invest within my beautiful country but I think that most of the educational system must be directed to a MIND REPAIRED subjects of every Jamaican and other transatlantic victims.
    I learnt that the willi Lynch syndrome ‘ how to May a slave by willi Lynch ‘ is still having its told on our people, a lot of us welcome visitors and protect them but won’t do this for ourselves and fellow Jamaican abroad .. this is something that is within our DNA, it’s real. If we don’t get our minds repaired and the minds of our children repaired back to start loving our selves and nation where our people can respect themselves look out for themselves build up themselves create businesses and support the black communities then Jamaica will be only a beautiful memory and not a comfortable home for its people. Then little by little the Chinese and other nations coming settled down and enjoy our country which our heroes fought for but our people feel afraid to return home and settled in peace, such a shame of the willi Lynch behaviour of the house slave government.
    Jamaica is beautiful when its people that stand up and protect their minds, their people by education learning about their ancient enemies and be wise enough not to stand against themselves but to love them selves
