KINGSTON, Jamaica – Business Guru Michael Lee Chin is imploring Jamaicans to have an “allergic reaction” to individuals complaining about the challenges facing Jamaica’s economy, and instead create wealth for society by finding solutions to the problems.

“I want us to make a promise to ourselves today that whenever we hear veranda talk about the complaints of politicians, stagnation, crime, devaluation… have an allergic reaction, and say to yourself that’s a catalyst for all of us to jump into action and create a solution because someone out there is looking at and saying what a fantastic country this is,” Lee Chin told the audience of the Jamaica Exporters Association Global Thought Leader Speaker Series held at the Terra Nova Hotel earlier today.

Lee Chin is the first in a series of speakers who will have dialogue with private sector leaders aimed at exploring potentially transformational issues and ideas about Brand Jamaica, while prompting change in the thinking of business individuals with a view to improve the country’s export performance.
