AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Jamaica Food & Culture: Mya’s Potroast is bringing rotating, authentic Jamaican dishes like curry chicken, oxtail, stew chicken and jerk wings to State College, plus classics such as beef patties—started by Jamaican-born Shushanna Castro after a local pop-up success. Land & Housing: The National Land Agency denies West Albion, St Thomas residents were not served notices before demolitions, saying it has run squatter management since 2024 with consultations, “No Trespassing” signs and development plans explained. Water Supply: The NWC has introduced a regulated schedule for some Constant Spring customers in St Andrew after a technical issue reduced inflows—night-time supply for many areas and daytime supply for others until further notice. Child Online Safety: Fi We Children Foundation is pushing for stronger, evidence-based protections as Jamaica weighs restricting social media access for children under 16, calling for legislation and child-centred online design. Housing Development: Prime Minister Andrew Holness broke ground for Wick Hall Estate in St Catherine, a 221-unit project with three price tiers aimed at easing the housing deficit. Domestic Violence Focus: St Elizabeth police say domestic violence is driving a large share of murders this year and are urging people to use the parish’s intervention centre in Santa Cruz. Business & Franchising: Pizza Hut Jamaica may come under new global ownership after Yum Brands’ US$2.7-billion sale, though franchise operations in Jamaica may not change automatically.
