TAH and Irieonline,
With the title being "oh oh ::: Ja-Election .... Feb 25th", for any reader, especially first time visitors, it is clear that the election is the topic being discussed. Although thousands of readers are multi visitors to Negril, I must keep in mind that first timers are reading this forum daily and the facts need to be presented in a way that makes sense to the subject/title of any thread. As of 11:30pm on this Thursday night, there are 50 members and 392 guests, many of whom are first timers.
There will be no difference for any visitor coming to the island during the upcoming election than on any other day. In fact, they will become part of the Jamaican history and be able to relate their experiences to future readers.
I am pleased that Johng agreed that the the last election was crime free. That was part of the point of my first post as related to the subject of this thread. Since the thread started to veer off topic, my further post were made to clarify and add some direct first hand insight into the now off topic subject.
I live here and the realities are in my face everyday. There is no way to avoid it being a member of the society. We can debate for years the history, causes, alphabet entities and the rest but that is beyond the focus of this tourism related website. With this post, I want to bring this thread back to the original topic.
I, for one, am looking forward to another election, they have become a fun discussion based time to be on the island.
