Jamaica Gleaner Commentary
published: Friday | September 24, 2004

Quality reconstruction, please
IN OUR view much of the damage and loss of life caused by Hurricane Ivan could have been avoided by adequate building standards and the efficient implementation of government regulations.

The vision thing
WITH JUST six weeks left to go before the US presidential election, John Kerry's campaign is struggling to gain traction. Time is running out.


As it was and is now
IN WHAT the Prime Minister described as being in the "spirit of promoting dialogue and discourse", P.J. Patterson presented a ministerial statement to Parliament on the post-Ivan plans of the Government of Jamaica on Tuesday of this week.


Leadership in disaster
IVAN'S AFTERMATH is proving to be as troublesome to Jamaica as the hurricane itself. Reports of persons being killed by carbon monoxide poisoning and being electrocuted are among the saddest I have heard.
