ReplyDeleteSound good they have some of those houses abroad too they should have have some for seniors too
ReplyDeleteHave some respect for poor people. Better we build board houses with concrete floors. Are you going to give then air-conditioning. Stop disrespecting the poor. Container can be used for shops etc because nobody will be sleeping in them. Can you imagine an elderly person in one of those 24/7! What do you people take poor people fah. Kmt
ReplyDeleteThat is Anju - jump and endorse something without even thinking. Don't speak well for a leader. Both governments have failed the people when it comes to housing. Both, for reasons known to them and perhaps shared by them, they refuse to lot up the lands, put in light, water and electricity and sell the lots to the people and allow them to build their own houses. Instead, land is sold to developers who build some buildings they call houses, houses in which one can hardly turn in and sell them for exorbitant and ridiculously high prices . Michael Manley must be catapulting in his grave. Anju even tek nht money and build luxury apartments. Shame shame shame on this government.
ReplyDeleteI think as usual Jamaica over pricing everything. Container houses in other countries are not that expensive. I also think they give that price to discourage persons from buying them as they will not earn a lot from it. As usual it is more important what they earn from something than the well being of our jamaican people. Jamaica land we love
