When people come to Jamaica, we don't want them to think about the problems of Jamaica. So let them come be in their paradise.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Jamaica has problems; America has problems; everywhere has problems.
I think Jamaica would thrive if we promote agriculture as a way to bring people here.
Being in Jamaica, I feel comfortable there.
Jamaica's a country of great dichotomy. On the one hand you have a tourist industry with great beaches and resorts, but on the other you have such great poverty and the violence that goes along with that.
I read about this hotel that was great, down in the south of the island, not in a touristy area. I had no particular desire ever to go to Jamaica, but I thought, what the hell? Sounds nice. Let's go!
Thinking about what Jamaicans want is a bit pressuring. So I try not to think about what Jamaicans want until I get the job done.
Out of all the places in the world, Jamaica is my favorite place.
We are the ones out there competing, and yet we read articles and listen to people making accusations about Jamaica, and there's nobody there to take a microphone, be a big person and say, 'What you're saying is wrong, and it's a lie.'
I come from a very big family from every economic background. Some of the streets I talk about, I've actually walked on because I have family from there. Jamaica has so many contradictions.
As athletes, we sit and think, when international media or whoever make judgments or statements about Jamaica, 'Why aren't members of our federation coming out and speaking up for us?'
