Vote for A NEW JAMAICA – The New Merged Local & Gen. Election Systems!

The Jamaicans will be voting at the General Elections soon. Here are questions and our answers to them. We feel these are the questions that should be on the voting public minds’ as the time draws nearer.

Q- Why are we holding General and Local Government elections on separate dates when it costs so much (budget of just under 1 Billion JA$) to host these elections?

A- There are many examples from other countries of the world with much are complexed systems and problems of logistics them Jamaica with its mere 1.3 million voters. (India has more than 300 million voters at elections).

The savings to be enjoy by bringing the two elections together on the same day and using that single ballots for all the candidates could pay for the additional logistics required.

Small island countries like our in the Caribbean have to really confront the hurdles and remove them fast. Get development working now! Simple items like merging elections dates and terms by making them all 4 years instead of 3 for local (many time going for much longer) and 5 for General (many times going much shorter). Even having them held on fixed dates should be applicable by now this just not at all difficult to do.

Jamaicans have to demand these things even those of you living outside of the country – you should be voting too!

Hi Di_M / SG,

Thanks for your words, I agree most of what you say except the so called bad words.

This is a new effort that is trying to bring Another Way, JAMAICA! in the things we say, do and believe in.  It is an online effort and very new that is why you have not heard about it before now.

About politics – I am someone that has run in elections for the NDM twice. I agree with you that the winning candidate should represent us and do things for us. Now that has not been happening and that is why we are working on developing theis idea of Another Way, JAMAICA!

You are clearly a conscious Jamaican and wish to see things change for the better.  If you have a burning issue you would like to introduce or focus on please let us know about it.  Looking out for you next note on the issues.

One Love.

3. Yes Di M / SG,

Thanks again, I agree with the things you say. If the people was feeling the JLP or NDM, then by now the PNP would have lost the elections and be out in the field.  I too notice the things you talk about and know that until some real field work starts to happen the change will never come about.

 

This effort is not just plain politics of vote for me or vote for them.  It is to try and get to us, at first, we in the online community to join forces and start demanded the types of changes we wish to see.

For example:

We are using www.VibesConnect.com and with about 50,000 of it membership being Jamaicans. Now if half of us (25,000) come together in 5 groups around

• Education – Implement “What Works” models to replace that which does not
• Health – Assist, audit and augment the present state of the centers and hospitals
• Commerce – Bring conscious and conscientiousness back to buying and selling
• Crime – Become our brothers keepers ensuring others have access and use thereby no reason to “try taking it away” from another
• Agriculture – Resetting the basis and platform of production and reward to farmer and those that would be interested in the new flourishing Agri-Processing Industry.

Each group having some 5,000 people to work on any project we feel will help our causes.

 

With so many persons working in unity we can do anything. We can Design, Plan, Lobby, Petition and Demonstrate (when required) and must be taken seriously by everybody.  Anytime we wish we can get media attention and money (plenty hands make work light) to carry out our intended projects and plans for the benefit of the wider Jamaican Society.  Do you see where this can lead to?  Catch the “Vibes & Connect” my friend!

Yes Di M /SG,

Welcome then to Another Way, JAMAICA! Di M /SG, Good to hear that you feel this way!

Right now I think building of the groups and teams at his time is most important.  Getting more of us that feel this way on broad is where I will ask you to begin.

1. Work on the members in your friend circle and have them send “Add as a friend” to this Another Way JAMAICA! profile.

2. We have been working on a website for housing all this it is called: http://www.LifeWeLove.com/Citizens

Go to it, sign up and make suggestions.

3. Give me permission to post our discussions on some public blogs (You should do this too) so Jamaicans everywhere can start to hear and feel a buzz coming including and especially those living overseas.  This should interest them a lot.

That should hold us for a three or so days.  We’ll check out the progress then.

Thanks

YOU CAN GO AHEAD AND USE THE DISCUSSION IN ANYWAY THAT YOU THINK WILL ENHANCE THE IMAGE OF THE ORGANISATION. AND ITS A PLEASURE TO BE APART OF CHANGE

What is Another Way, JAMAICA about?

Hi MD,

Thanks for asking. Another Way, JAMAICA! is about the following things:

Issues & Answers You and others in this community speak up and out about the things that pose a problem to them and the others here give their views about how to shift and make things for the better for all of us.

Education & Training All of us here can come together to form teams that focus on helping others to become more. We all use our collective knowledge and wisdoms that we all have. These are used to point the way to you and others thereby drawing out the stuff you know and giving instruction on any matter we ask about.

Jobs & Business Using the ideas that are freely shared and offered here, all persons can then start to find the missing tools and networks of people to get work & contracts. These will be new style Jobs and Businesses for the new challenges of today and tomorrow.

• Technology (computing, internet, audio & video);
• Commerce (Network & Leverage Marketing Systems);
• Culture Tourism (Craft and Cookery Cottage micro-businesses).

Community & Government These bodies should be working for all of us to give us the support and help to make our lives even better. We will use our Another Way JAMAICA! teams to help to impact and lobby them to improve on the stuff & on the work they do. Our people will become members of the various civic, community & government groupings out there. Membership to them is what makes it smoother and easier for everyone of us. These groups include those that lead and form our democracy – political movements, coalitions and parties running in the General Elections.

Hey, what’s this thing about?

All School Fees, Make them FREE!

Hi LSH,

My dear single mother, I believe that all the school fee for every single person (every Jack and Jill) should get free education in this country. The money the Government uses to pay the people all across the country are from our pockets anyway.  We should be getting value for this money.

Jobs should be provide for everyone so they can do what ever they think will give them a salary or income that suits them.  They can only do these jobs if they are educated to do it.  If they intend to migrate overseas with the free education then they should be made to pay it back in some kind of arrangement eg:

• Let them work for a specific time in under bonding system or
• Let them be charged the money back for education when they file travel papers.

All schools should be free – except the specialist classes for example flying school  doctors and other such things like that.

Good luck and thanks for asking.  Things can change but we have to be the ones that stand by our real personal interests.

Buying & Selling “your VOTE”

Hi  F20,

Thanks for bringing BUYING THE VOTE to light.

Why only $5,000 – Why not $100,000 or even $1,000,000?

“Anything unsustainable will lead to the ruination of one and his or her people.”

This is one example of the types of things that we have to get rid of in the Jamaican politics of today.  Our country and economy is where it is because of this and other similar dishonourable practices of some politicians and parties. It clearly continue to the present time as well.

You and your friends can help to change these things and cause JAMAICA to become what it was really intended to be. A country for freedom, peace, love, joys and understanding. A land we love.  It is time for a change of attitude and a change of heart. Not only for the politicians but for we the people as well.

When you and others like you are ready for Another Way, JAMAICA! Jamaica will be waiting – wake up my friend. With this approach so much more trouble will be coming our way.

There is Another Way, JAMAICA.  Help me help us to get there!

What can AWJ help us with?

If there are problems that you think need to be aired and discussed, with a wider cross section of people so as to get some attention and hopefully,, meaningful resolution then you can tell us what it is.We are building teams of people that work towards the sorting out of outstanding issues people have. That is why we are called Another Way, JAMAICA! for the lifewelove.com.

We work online and all anyone requires is their keyboard and something they passionately care about. The passion for a cause will fuel right action and encourage others to join in to help make it happen.

Hope you find what we are being, doing and have to offer interesting, so we look forward to your input whenever you can. Be good and be present. It’s your turn finally.
