Eddie Seaga wasn't born there either. He became prime minister. He was a Jamaican citizen by birth.
So what is a "local"?

Cap,
In my opinion, a local is someone born in, or at least living in an area for N extended period of time.
Cool! I assumed that since The Caves is part of Island Outpost, it was owned by CBlackwell. Maybe Island Outpost is just a holding company or some kind of other business jargon that I don't understand.
Probably too literal, but I would define a Jamaican as someone that holds (or is eligible for) a Jamaican passport.
In 1983 due to the IMF imposed "austerity budget" it was illegal to hold or spend any foreign exchange (US dollars, Cad, English pounds).
It made being in business impossible which precipitated my closing my two companies in Jamaica.
However, it was a heck of a black market for a while. It was the origin of the street money changers you still see.
Thankfully that kind of draconian regulation is no longer part of the standby IMF agreements
