The reason I said if anyone cares anymore is because I haven't seen much here about Jamaica or Negril...or issues we used to discuss and reason about.
The stated purpose is in fact "crime reduction". New boss in town. Negril, Sav next Grange Hill.
For people who live here this is as much a drag as for the visitor. I keep lamenting about my Orange Guy - he comes down from the hills with a truck full of beautiful oranges that are fresher and prettier and cheaper than in the stupid markets. People like me, full and part time residents, Jamaicans included depend on him and others like him at Taits Plaza for fresh fruits and veg.
Then there's the soup guy - tourists love his soup but so do the gyals working at Scotia and NCB and at the likkle shops that need a quick and cheap lunch.
My favorite jelli vendor - gone.
And the guy that sells sugar cane out by Value Master? He's been there since time immemoriam.
I think its a drag for everyone - tourists and part timers like me and full timers like my friends. I am waiting to see how this really and truly affects the crime and murders that have been plaguing Westmoreland for the past 18 months. And I'm not holding my breath.
