Birthright first
We think Jamaica should expand its freedom, the same freedom allowed to Commonwealth citizenry should be allowed to Jamaicans in the USA.
Natural flows show more Jamaicans in the USA than in the rest of Commonwealth! We have Commonwealth citizenry, not just Jamaican citizenry.
Dabdoub is jumping the gauntlet. The ruling is not done; it is before the Appellate Court. How could he be asking the speaker to put the horse before the cart, he is a lawyer, who should know that too.
The speaker should move to amend the Constitution to be more inclusive of all who are born in Jamaica and of Jamaican parentage.
Birthright should come first.

Prayer for peace
I would like see if this prayer can help stop the crime:
The prayer: O God of grace in your perfect kingdom, you give us a banner of peace to show others of your love and care, send down that peace on us and spread it abroad so that under your kingdom of righteousness and the fruit of heaven to conquer us in your Holy Spirit to make us overcome the temptation of violence, so that the nation under God will be committed to your charge and salvation through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.

Thanks to JPS
I recently experienced a serious problem with the JPS electricity supply to my residence here in Mandeville which made it necessary for me to visit the JPS office. I obtained audience with the customer service supervisor who took immediate action with the field staff.
After much activity on the part of JPS employees, my electrician and my consultant electrical engineer, the elusive fault was located and corrected. I found the manager's secretary to be very pleasant, Mr Reid of the field staff to be very helpful and, in particular, the customer service supervisor, Mrs Tyndale, to be professional, firm, businesslike and courteous in dealing with the public.
These staff members are assets to the company. As a customer and a member of the public, I thank them all.
