AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Westmoreland Health Push: Westmoreland residents are being urged to actively track key health markers—blood sugar, cholesterol, weight-for-height, and HIV/syphilis status—while adopting daily habits to curb chronic illness, as hantavirus surveillance ramps up at ports of entry despite no confirmed cases in Jamaica. Curfew Clash: In Burnt Savannah, residents protested a curfew they say has been strangling income since Hurricane Melissa recovery, claiming police shut down a candlelight vigil and left people “harassed.” School & Youth Momentum: JTTA launched the 2026 Prep and Primary School Table Tennis League, while the Ministry of Culture’s Growth Lab 1.0 encouraged young men to resist pressure and build skills and goals. Pensions Update: Jamaica’s financial regulator says a standalone micro-pension plan isn’t feasible, pointing instead to strengthening NIS and approved retirement schemes. Tourism Airlift Plan: Jamaica will host the CTO Air Connectivity Summit in Kingston in Feb 2027, aiming to improve regional airlift.
