PM Holness says his gov’t will make it easy for the Diaspora to participate in building Jamaica

KINGSTON, Jamaica – Prime Minister Andrew Holness thanked members of the Diaspora for their contribution to the development of Jamaica but stated that there were too many complaints from the Diaspora regarding difficulties in making a contribution to Jamaica.

“I am hearing of too many problems from the Diaspora when they want to make a contribution to Jamaica.

“This has to change, this has to stop. This government will make it easier for the Diaspora to participate in the development of their homeland.”
