Panel discusses state of the economy

THE STATE of the economy was the topic up for discussion at the recent Jamaica Chamber of Commerce (JCC) Power Breakfast, held at the Hilton Kingston Hotel.

Here guest speaker, the Rt. Hon Edward Seaga (left), answers questions being posed by members of the audience during a panel discussion. The other panelists were economists Dennis Morrison (second left) and Errol Gregory (standing right). President of the JCC, Anthony Chang (third right) made a brief presentation. Also attending were JCC vice presidents (seated left to right) Lazarus Bucknor and Patrick Scott.

In his address, Mr. Seaga said the Jamaican economy needed approximately US$1 billion in investments annually, in order to erode the negative growth pattern that has characterised the last few years.
