Kittisians protest against their government, Jamaicans remain silent !

On Wednesday, June 25, 2013, an ocean of white showcased the camaraderie, calm and determination of thousands of citizens of the federation of St. Kitts and Nevis who descended on the capital, Basseterre in a soul stirring and euphoric afternoon of prayer and protest against what some now refer to as a “galloping dictatorship.”

 

Those who converged at Independence Square identified with one another. Their everyday experiences drove them out of their homes and onto the streets of historical Basseterre. The steadily increasing cost of living, the blatant acts of corruption in government, the inability of the current administration to minimize crime, the siphoning off of prime lands to foreigners, repeated lack of interest in tabling the integrity in public life bill, opposition to term limits for a sitting Prime Minister, astronomically high electricity costs, the strategic acts of political expediency by the government to remain in government by delaying for some seven months the motion of no confidence are some of the underlying reasons the people showed up to march.

Bold for emphasis.

There very same issues are facing Jamaicans at home, but we remain comfortable knowing that PNP is at the helm and the view by the diehard and die poor [is ]they should remain in that position for a long long  time.

So while Jamaica continues it experiment with socialist trying to become capitalist  and failing badly in the process, the rest of the  Caribbean  and Latin America are not so patient and are taking steps to move forward in the hopes of bringing prosperity to their countries.
