AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Tourism Investment & Resilience: Tourism Minister Edmund Bartlett urged Jamaicans overseas to invest in tourism resilience and act as ambassadors, as Jamaica targets 10 million visitors and US$10 billion in earnings over the next decade, with a proposed “diaspora climate corps” to share skills and networks. Resort Upgrades: Sandals Resorts International unveiled a first look at its US$200 million “Sandals 2.0” transformation across Sandals Montego Bay, Sandals Caribbean Cay (formerly Sandals Royal Caribbean) and Sandals South Coast, including new guest experiences, dining concepts and upgraded accommodations. Ocean Stewardship: Sandals Negril and Beaches Negril marked World Oceans Day with an educational beach clean-up at Norman Manley Sea Park Beach, bringing Negril Primary students and NEPA/WPM partners together for litter removal and conservation pledges. Safety Spotlight (Negril): Residents renewed fears over crime after the murder of yoga teacher Francoise Simonet-Johnson in Negril, the second high-profile killing in under a month, with concerns that tourist confidence is slipping. Diaspora Health Support: A two-day medical and humanitarian outreach led by the Jamaica Nurses’ Association of Florida delivered free screenings, medication and supplies to nearly 1,000 people in Westmoreland, linked to Hurricane Melissa recovery efforts.
