I know that she did the *right* thing within her power, so this is not about her, but this is my point: Do we not see how f*cked up this system is that HE and his administration can pause something that impacts 40 million people with EASE but to reverse it it takes *all of this?*

Jamaica Public Service has restored electricity to parts of Ocho Rios in St Ann, just days before cruise ships are scheduled to dock in the resort town on Tuesday and Wednesday. Read more: jamaica-gleaner.com/article/…

Over 200 residents received medical care and therapy yesterday. Grateful to our partners ,JPS Foundation, MobiCare, Faith Chapel, Giving JA, AIO Endless Resources, and Fingers from the Heart Ministries for helping us bring relief and restore hope.

BOOM! Over 30k @Unitedcajunnavy MREs landed in Jamaica today! We have approximately 250k more that will be rolling in over the next several days! Thanks for your support! thecajunnavy.org

Following a visit by several of my colleagues to western Jamaica on Friday, Senator Christian Tavares-Finson and I visited several communities in St. Elizabeth on Saturday with hundreds of care packages and supplies which we personally donated. We were supported by a team from Young Jamaica. It's a long road to go for our people who have been hit hard by Hurricane Melissa but I already detect more optimism compared to a few days ago. Together we will support our people to build back stronger. We recognise that continuity in our support is very important.

#Update The Newell Health Center has reopened. Very important for our primary care needs. Will be advocating for increased doctor access. Other centers have been reopened in St Elizabeth.

Generators were donated to the Govt to help in relief efforts… don’t means dem must give dem Weh. So if a company donated a skl bus to help transport d kids d skl must give it away becz d company donated it for the kids. Similarly with rental book in skl. Y’all can’t b dis dense

Isn't this lady Julian Chang a Cllr? Just saw this on TikTok and I'm really impressed with her 👏

The Ministry of Labour and Social Security (MLSS) says claims circulating on social media that persons are required to present identification (ID) or Taxpayer Registration Numbers (TRNs) to collect hurricane relief packages are completely false. “There appears to be an attempt to conflate two separate activities. No documentation is required to access any food or hygiene packages distributed by the Ministry of Labour and Social Security. However, documentation is normally requested during the household damage assessment process,” the MLSS said in a statement on Sunday. jamaicaobserver.com/2025/11/…

Omaro Pennycooke of Genus district, St. Elizabeth, who was reported missing on Monday, November 03 has returned home. He is said to be in good health. Thank you for your assistance.

So hold on. GOJ must: 1. Provide aid (medical, social, psycho-social, welfare, security, etc) 2. Fix back infrastructure (roads, water lines, hospitals, other GOJ buildings) 3. Pay out salaries which come due regardless of storms PLUS fix back 500k house? Unuh mad man.

🚨 BREAKING: Bernie Sanders is urging Democratic senators to oppose the current shutdown deal, calling it a “blank check for Trump’s cruelty.” He says any agreement that cuts food aid or expands ICE funding “should be rejected outright.”

A chorus of fury has erupted among homeowners of Edmund Ridge Estates in St James after Hurricane Melissa tore through the three-year-old housing scheme, ripping off roofs and flattening structures, leaving several families in distress. Read more: jamaica-gleaner.com/article/…

Portmore toll. Three lanes of traffic and every morning there is at least one instance of the entire three lanes locked because three donkeys sit across the road doing 40km causing unnecessary delays for ppl going about their business. The speed limit is 70. Stay to the left.

Junction is like the Kingston of St E, never seen her so busy on a Sunday.

@drdaytoncampbell isn’t alone in the fight to reach all citizens of Westmoreland. Thanks to @samaritanspurse, NHF, @hummingbirdcharities and MOHW, mobile doctors, pharmacies and health clinic will be available. This is a time of solidarity for our beautiful Jamaica 🇯🇲

Its much different on the ground. Real faces, real challenges that require real work. I cant thank our NGO teams enough for the exemplary work being done to reach our most vulnerable and marooned communities in Western Jamaica. Hearing from the people, hope is alive. Relief is being received but greater calls are being made for them to be seen and heard. I urge volunteers and workers that when you go out to give… Also give a listening ear. When you meet, ask the needs that are left unmet. And if you must capture, capture the moments that will encourage others to do the same. #HurricaneMelissa

Not even the official shelters were provided for. No restocking of supplies, no security, no generator for Petersfield??? What were the logistical plans for the shelters? ODPEM is a joke.

Drop the prices cause yall gonna bathe in money now. Your time to shine.
