Another Interceptor Tender offload in Kingston, Jamaica, adding to the thousands of kilos of trash removed so far! We're up to five Interceptors across the city - and we're not done yet. Stay tuned for more deployments soon as we continue working to transform Kingston Harbour.

This "The other Party did it too" argument has gotten old, tired and insulting. I want better for my country, truly.

Nigel Clarke is the finest Finance Minister the Caribbean has known despite occasional indulgence in narrow, productivity-sapping gimmickry like incentives for SMEs. His real contribution is at the opposite end: he has improved the institutional foundation of the economy for all.
Replying to @RobinWigg
@NigelClarkeJa is the finest Minister of Finance the Caribbean has known. His budgets contain not only active incentives for SMEs (and individuals), they’re both indicative and anticipatory. Now he must scale his economic vision to bring Jamaica into its potential! @wcchen

Conditions continue to develop with the area of disturbed weather now over the central Caribbean Sea and it is possible that a tropical storm could form south of Jamaica within the next 24-36 hours. Residents should, therefore, pay special attention to subsequent Releases.

I recalled seeing these Flamingos in Portland Cottage in October 2019. Did you know that Flamingos have been seen at the Mona Reservoir? I wonder if we will ever see them there again. #RoostersWorldja #Wetland #Birds – at Jamaica

The idea of having live televised coverage of proceedings in some Court on a constant basis is one which has come of age. It would certainly dispel the often false narrative that is peddled by some about the justice system in its treatment towards bail & acquittals of persons.
