New 'foreign' for J'cans

1. Suddenly The Bahamas is the new "foreign" for many Jamaicans of the upper crust. Daily there is news of more arrivals and, of course, this little enclave is where many get to rub shoulders with the rich and famous.

Murderous climate

2. While industry players are crooning about tourism prospects others are asking what is being done to make Jamaicans safer in their own homes given the murderous climate that now exists in the tourist capital. It's OK for visitors to have fun from behind their hotel walls, but what if they want to venture outside, can their safety be guaranteed?

Growing debt

3. Having fought so very hard to secure the luxury home it now seems that said property may be wrested from his control to satisfy mounting debts that are threatening to overwhelm this once powerful king pin.

Here we come!

4. Las Vegas here we come! The party king and his playmates are set to make sin city their playground this holiday season. The king has been getting a lot of practice in games of chances on home soil and now feels he can up the ante.
