Enjoyment Jamaican Style
This is how some Jamaicans spend big bucks to enjoy themselves.
Squatting
What is the nation's policy on squatting, and what action will be taken to deal with this challenge? It is one of the remnants of slavery? When action is taken to remove squatters from the land, all the politicians and wannabe politicians turn up for a camera opportunity.
First, we should have a registry of all squatters in Jamaica and their locations. They should be made to pay towards a squatter's development fund in cash or kind.
Squatters should be encouraged not to have any more children until they have legally obtained a spot for their homes. Squatters should not erect permanent buildings on captured lands.
Areas should be allocated for all squatters where they can be located. Each area should have a project lead from the Ministry of Housing. They would be responsible for organizing squatters to get building plans and working together to build their homes.
It should be a major offence for any squatter who fails to work with the project lead. The lead should listen to the squatters, but the project team's position is final.
We have two challenges. First, the people need to have a place to live, and landowners must be able to purchase land without fear that the land will be captured. The news media should not come across as if they are defending the practice of capturing.
The government can start by purchasing land across the island to relocate squatters.
The capturing of land has to stop, and this is a matter the government has to take up as a special project to assist those who need housing.

Food For The Poor Homes
I understand that some people who have received houses from Food for the Poor now find themselves in the middle of disputes with their relatives over the land. Very sad indeed. We are fighting over dead lef and wi soon dead lef di dead lef!
Prostate Cancer
Remember to have your prostate checked out by the doctor, or you might see your maker earlier than he had planned.

ReplyDeleteWhy squatters are allowed to build a whole community on land that's not theirs? From they started cleaning the land to put the first house they should be stopped.
ReplyDeleteIt can't be that you allow them to spread out they you have to take them to court it doesn't work you have to throw them off that's crazy. Suh the saying nip it in the bud is forgotten? Rubbish!
In agreement with ideas to combat land tiefing.
