and that won't change, I agree with your suggestion HT. JAmaica is my home but things really look down hill. I am sorry for my kids and those that follow so to speak because I wasn't privilege to much but had to work hard and still working hard to survive. Can you imagine an sector where all the qualified teachers emigrate for good?

Jamaica's gov't have their priorities all wrong, they don't place enough emphasis on Teachers, doctors, nurses, firemen, police, small businesses, the total opposite in first world countries.

Don't come back ya fi live and teach unless you just spending a few summers teaching unfortunate kids or underprivileged kids, but fly back home to your life's securities.
