Global Financial Crisis
My fellow Jamaicans,
As we all know, the world is going through a serious financial and economic crisis – in its extensiveness and complexity perhaps worse than anything we have ever experienced. Most of the major economies of the world are heading into recession. Some already are- like the USA, Germany, Italy and Japan. We in Jamaica are not able to escape the impact of this global crisis.
We have had to deal with global crises before:

The Government will be making greater use of science and technology in the effort to solve crime, including DNA technology.
"We are going to pass legislation to enable the establishment of a DNA database in Jamaica and to allow for the admission of DNA evidence into our criminal justice system," said Minister of State in the Ministry of National Security, Senator Arthur Williams, as he addressed a long service awards ceremony for employees of the Power Services Company Limited in Mandeville on December 20.
"DNA evidence has been in use in many countries throughout the world. It is perhaps the most reliable scientific evidence that one can ever get," he stated.
He informed that the electronic monitoring of persons, who have run afoul of the law, and the strategic positioning of closed circuit television (CCTV) cameras in town centres, will also be employed.

Touched by Friday night's tragic accident in Portland that claimed the lives of 14 market people on their way to Kingston, Mayor Desmond McKenzie says his Christmas wish is that no more lives would be lost during the Yuletide season.
"...My wish is that not one single human life would be lost during the Christmas season. The tragic accident in Portland has left a scar on the season," McKenzie said emotionally, as he asked for prayer for the victims' families.
