Jamaica Elected Ladies

Prime minister Portia Simpson Miller and the other elected female Members of Parliament, Minister Natalie Neita-Headley, Lisa Hannah,  Sharon Ffolker-Abraham and Senator Sanders Falconer, could help to stimulate the local fashion industry by wearing and advertising the gifts of Jamaican fashion designers and their talents.
This move will help to promote, increase jobs and possible export for the country. A move like this will show that indeed the elected ladies and leaders of Jamaica have Jamaicans interest and well being at heart.
I remember when Michelle Obama first came on the scheme many were surprised that she would wear regular non popular designer clothes. Many were shocked by the revelation and could not believe that Americas first lady would wear clothes from Target a regular department store. This lead to an increased sale at Target stores.
Jamaica elected ladies can single handedly help to stimulate the economy by wearing ‘made in Jamaica by Jamaicans’ clothing. They can give credit to the designer/creator so that the media can give credits where credit is due. Just saying we have to do for ourselves and look out for each other. Remember one coco full basket.

Jamaicans De Every Weh

Just as I start to think that no Jamaicans was on the capsized Costa Concordia cruise ship in Italy last week, there comes a Jamaica-Gleaner story that two Jamaicans were on the ship but they survived. So this concludes the widely held belief that Jamaicans De Every Weh. Jamaicans are all over the world, every nookie, every corner. One of the Jamaicans Antonio wright was a chef on the ship and he gave his account of the story in today’s Jamaica-Gleaner.

It is amazing how Mrs. Simpson Miller and her time surprise many Jamaican with their big win in the December 29, 2011 election. Many media personnel who did not expect the win are in a flurry and because of this common sense are out the window.

From the little I know is that when you have a new government one of their first items on their agenda is to review what the outgoing government has left them with. The new government is privy to certain information while in opposition but the details are what are of great importance. The new government has no time to bask in celebration because in Jamaica there is so much that need to be done ASAP. Therefore they have Read the rest of this entry

Jamaica Election: G2K Backlash

The G2K attempt to portray Mrs. Simpson-Miller as a stupid Jamaican woman cuts deep into the heart of many Jamaicans, especially women. Our people have come a far way from the wretched un-Godly curse of slavery. Many of us have been slowly trying to educate ourselves and rise out of the ashes of slavery. If PhD degrees and Masters Degree alone could have rescued Jamaica, it would be one of the most successful countries on earth.
What Jamaica needs is people with a mixture of common sense and education, and most of all honesty and integrity. No amount of pretty girls and boasty intellectual can fool the Jamaican people again. Jamaicans, not withstanding, their education level is well known as one of the smartest people on earth. Can you tell me what other country on earth that other nationalities try to emulate, imitate and outright impersonate?

The Jamaican people have come a far way and while we are not seeking to use our past as an excuse, if we forget our past we are going to continue be slaves to it just like G2K and their misguided advertisements. G2K leaders should be replaced.

Jamaica in 2012

Well not many countries on earth get to start the New Year with a new government. The People’s National Party (PNP) under the leadership of veteran politician Portia Simpson-Miller  unleashed one of Jamaica’s biggest political upset in election history to the ruling Jamaica Labour Party (JLP). This defeat is exceptional because no pollsters, analysis, commentators, or psychic was able to predict a 42-21 seat victory for the PNP.

As fast as the election is concluded Read the rest of this entry

I hope that all the nay sayer will now respect the action of the people of Jamaicans who have spoke. The Jamaicans I know don’t want to be disrespected or taken for fools, they don’t like to be tricked and they are smart enough to know that when your hands is in the lion mouth you pulled it out slowly am now confident in my brothers and sisters that they have demonstrated that respect is due and should be given to them by politians. People should be respected weather they are brown, black or white; rich or poor; straight or gay; we are all proud Jamaicans
