I wonder if the government is seeking help. Esp. since it's a country that's heavily depended on tourism? Some people some time ago were joking that they need a guiliani to clean the place up and I think one is really needed. that's ridiculous!
I wonder if the new PM is doing enough to get investment there as to produce more jobs?
So many companies are investing in China, India and so on, why not Jamaica?Comment

TG how u know the GOJ don't already know of these maps and update them every so often from green areas to amber to red and visa versa? They know of other maps the public may not know about too, like...
1. Maps of areas for tourism and future developments
2. Maps of areas of natural minerals and resources - chalk, bauxite, marble, gold etc.
3. Maps of areas of prime realestate and future devlopments
4. Maps of areas for businesses and future developments - plaza, banks, office buildings,hotels etc.
5. Areas where there are ethnic communities - chinese, asians, germans, jews, muslims etc.
If I was in the government these would be vital information for the development, investment, security and job creations . [img]/forums/images/graemlins/70402-thinking.gif[/img]
If the GOJ don't know of green, amber and red spots in kingston and islandwide, then they are trully in the dark. Even banks and insurance comapanies in Jamaica, I would expect to know of green, amber and red areas for obvious reasons.Comment

Tivoli was always bad?
There was a lot of shooting in all areas in the 70s.
Remember Tivoli Gardens is only about two City Blocks.Comment

OK, but I don't think they would go ballastic [img]/forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
I have noticed that certain areas I used to frequent and thought were green spots are now amber spots - Constant Spring for example. My sister who lives there tells me the area has changed since I left the island. Her apartment have security at the gate with CCTV and you have to give your name and state your business at the gate to secuirty. They then ring the apartment over their intercom and if the residence decide to see you they open the big steal gate - which slides open and let you in. Even security with dem big gun, German Shepherds and Rottweilers patrol the grounds and fence parameter.
This is sad, it is like living in a prison. [img]/forums/images/graemlins/70361-embarassed.gif[/img]Comment

Sounds like the building I lived in growing up in NYC, minus the gate. When I was little you could just walk in, by the time I was 12, step by step, they added intercom, camera, etc.
Isn't that fairly common in large cities?Comment
