The “Miamification” of Jamaica – Petchary’s Blog

For all these developments, I have more or less the same questions:

  • Will Jamaicans have any access at all to the coastline on which these properties will be built?
  • What impact will the development have on water supply for surrounding areas?
  • What impact will the development have on traffic in the surrounding neighbourhood?
  • What is the development’s carbon footprint?
  • Who will be living in these places?
  • What kind of clientele will casinos bring to Jamaica (in the case of Harmony Cove)?
  • What benefits will these basically all-inclusive developments bring to the community, apart from mostly low-paid jobs? Will there be imported labour?
  • How much natural habitat will be damaged in the building of these developments? How many trees cut down (including mangroves and mature trees)? How many endemic species of birds, plants and animals will be destroyed? What about the impact on beaches and coastal habitats?
  • When is a Protected Area not a Protected Area? In fact, what are the criteria – or is it in name only?

” O interessante sobre uma pessoa que estuda constantemente, é que ela vivencia a realidade dos acontecimentos mais de perto, portanto, não se deixa seduzir ou acreditar em qualquer coisa.”

Violência Doméstica – Pensamentos.me/VEM comigo!

É importante que toda mulher que é vítima de violência, denuncie o agressor para que ele não fique impune, comentando ainda mais atrocidades.

Ich werde dich dort treffen / … I shall meet you there – Stella, oh, Stella

“I Shall Meet You There (Sonnet 1319)

Beyond tongue and tradition,
Beyond king and nation,
Beyond ignorance and intolerance,
Beyond cowardice and castration,
Beyond fear and fanaticism,
Beyond rigidity and recklessness,
Beyond the desert of dead habit,
Beyond the logical heartlessness,
Beyond the guise of practicality,
Beyond the price of convenience,
Beyond the lies of selfish order,
Beyond the highs of whims and wishes,
There’s a valley of love and laughter.
Come someday I shall meet you there.”
