Monday, December 22, 2014

LUIS Alberto Moreno, President of the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) left behind a feel-good message for the Government and those watching over the Jamaican economy, saying he was "truly impressed" with the country's progress since his last visit.

Wrapping up his well-received visit last Friday, Moreno noted that debt-to-GDP was on a downward trajectory, growth had restarted, inflation was under control, the current account and reserves had experienced remarkable improvements, the labour market had stabilised, and the unemployment rate was declining.

KINGSTON, Jamaica - The 2014 Forbes Best Countries for Business Report has ranked Jamaica 64 out of 146 nations making it the best country in the Caribbean region to do business and third in Latin America and the Caribbean.

That is just the precursor, once the dollar reaches US115,the vultures will will land in droves on Jamaica.
There is nothing scie.tific about the suggested 115 figure,it could have been much lower but it will signal Jamaica's willingness to comply with the wishes of the IMF and that we are now submissive therefore ripe for yhe taking.
Unprecedented economic numbers around the corner but your refrigerator will remain empty.
It is all artificial.

[Islandman]

Well we should be at $115 in another week or two so lets start preparing for the vultures.
