Your life is based on hatred instead of progress. You are advocating for tourism but telling people to go home. You are your own worst problem get your act together. No country can survive in isolation and definitely not someplace that imports everything for survival.

There is nothing preventing you from investing in your own countries food security.
You all don't have a problem with Caucasian investors. But o those nasty Jamaicans.
Anyway I don't see the link between sensibly opening a countries borders and a grocery store. Know this you can't insult me like you all do the poor Haitians and I retreat in a shell

jamaicaproud says...

You are myopic. Every one and every country can learn from each other.
Frankly also you cant tell me where to focus

jamaicaproud says...

You can keep shaking your head.. There is a risk yes, but its not out of control like in these here Bahamas.
Don't downgrade Jamaica, get your facts.
As for the CDC. I live in the state where CDC is located and I can tell you if there is anywhere they should be telling people to avoid is this state.
Their advice is useless and should be taken with many grains of salt.
====================================================
In September since then its 250 Mill
Jamaica has earned an estimated US$80 million from approximately 40,000 tourists since the Government opened the borders on June 15.

According to Bartlett, many of the measures have been first among tourist destinations in the world, like that of establishing a resilient corridor, along the northern coast of the island, which enabled the Government to manage the movement of tourists.

He said the reopening of the industry along the resilient corridor has allowed thousands of workers to return to their respective jobs, with the reopening of the southern coast resilient corridor last week ensuring another 10,000 Jamaicans to start working again.

The so called tourism product has been open in Jamaica with precautions. Why can't your guys collaborate with other nations who though not perfect, have some semblance of normalcy.

What is the basis of your xenophobic rant? You need to stop your superiority complex.
You are perhaps worried that someone is going to get a work permit or whatever. So what, it's Al business. Do you know how many thousands of Bahamians are in Jamaica studying? And we treat them with respect.

Man people are funny. You don't grow enough food to feed a small population but you want to boycott a startup from another country. The obsession with hating foreigners especially non Caucasian is just laughable. Why don't you open your own store? I wonder what your reaction will be when Jamaican banks come in to fill the slots left by Scotia.?

You are welcome to start Bahamian companies in Jamaica we are not that myopic and very open minded.
And yes Jamaica does import food. But it's for people's tastes it's not a necessity. There is enough produced locally to meet our needs.

It comes down to order. Some countries have it, most countries don't. It's about not viewing pandemic as a political issue or a scheme.. Its not about wearing a mask as men pleasers to avoid arrest. It really is simply doing the right thing.
1. Protective gear
2. No physical contact with those who you can't validate l their movements. Which means no physical contact.
3. Avoid gatherings as much as your job allows.

This means church party and social food consumption aka eating in restaurants should be avoided.
People need to stop seeing the measures as punishment but survival.

RIP. The venom that was normally reserved for the you know who's has now been unleashed with a vengeance on the general population.
Such a shame. the COP did say it and now they have killed a man because of their zeal.
