Truly exceptional service from the @JamaicaConstab this morning.

I misplaced one of my electronic devices and it turned up in Waterhouse. I simply walked into the Hunt’s Bay Police Station and I was met with professionalism from the officers. I explained the situation and they helped me with retrieving it.

I want to specifically big up Constable Edwards and Constable Whittaker from the same station. Consummate professionals from beginning to end. They deserve promotion!

The World Bank’s “Water Forward” initiative, launched in April 2026, uses Country Water Compacts as government-led action plans to connect policy reforms, institutional strengthening, and investment to boost water security for 1 billion people by 2030. These compacts tailor solutions to national priorities—such as irrigation, sanitation, or leakage reduction—to attract financing and improve water infrastructure.

Im happy to report that Jamaica has joined with the @worldbankgroup to ensure these goals are achieved locally, for the benefit of all Jamaicans 🇯🇲
