The Issue

The people of Jamaica consider these beautiful acres of prime land and the watershed of Roaring River as part of our natural national heritage. The people of Jamaica do not agree with the proposed FREE giveaway of our national land heritage at Roaring River to China Harbour Engineering Company (CHEC).                                                                                      China Harbour has submitted a proposal for the Government of Jamaica (GOJ) to give them 800 acres of land at Roaring River next to Dunns River, Ocho Rios, St. Ann FREE, as part of their agreement with the Jamaican Government to construct the North-South link of Highway 2000, in addition to receiving toll revenue from the highway for 50 years. The people of Jamaica know that there are other lands that can fulfill the terms of the CHEC contract and which the UDC should offer instead. The people of Jamaica petition them to do so.
