Garfield Forbes of Newport, Manchester on Audley Shaw’s new portfolio

The view that Audley Shaw has been "demoted" from finance minister to the Minister of Agriculture reflects our skewed vision of what constitutes an organisation and our misguided ideologies of what service ought to be. Service must never be regarded as servitude; rather it must be deemed as a privilege or an opportunity to make the world around us a better place. We must not be measured by the so called status of the office. Our quality of service is the ultimate proof of our worth and value system.

So Mr. Shaw the ball (yam) is in your court (the predominantly farming community in which you were born and all of Jamaica).
