Walker encourages young people to pursue entrepreneurship

MANAGING Director of the Jamaica Observer Danville Walker last Monday hosted members of the National Youth Service, St Mary Chapter at the company’s Beechwood Avenue office in Kingston.

The group of 15 young adults, who hailed from several communities in the rural parish, were given a tour of the newspaper’s departments and facilities, which followed a luncheon. There, Walker urged them to pursue careers in business, noting that although difficult at first, the benefits far outweigh the disadvantages. Here are some highlights.
