“Some areas of Jamaica, particularly cities such as Kingston, experience high levels of crime and violence. Jamaica has had one of the highest murder rates in the world for many years. In 2005, Jamaica had 1,674 murders for a murder rate of 58 per 100,000 people; that year, Jamaica had the highest murder rate in the world. In November 2008, the Jamaican Parliament voted to retain the death penalty, which is performed by hanging” And now…what next?The future of such a beautiful country as Jamaica is in danger. As things are developing, one can not more than imagine scenes of ruin and desolation. Imagine a country were people will not want to travel anymore because of the growing sense of insecurity. Beaches will remain deserted, cities ruined…Images of mass emigration will become familiar, people will try by all means to leave the country, selling their belongings, abandoning their lands and houses…only the most corrupted people will remain un the country, enjoying their kingdom of fear and desolation….What are we going to do to save our country?
