Just an opinion or observation. Perhaps it's just the video they chose to shoot, but in this video and others I've seen from the 60's and 70's it would appear that the Jamaican economy is healthier in these clips then it is now. Is Jamaican economy better now? I really don't know. The infrastructure looks better in the older vids.

The infrastructure was pretty good while England was in charge of fixing it. Of course, all the riches they took from the slave labor was enormous so it was a small price to pay. When Jamaica wanted Independence, the English were happy to oblige and wash their hands of that expense.
