Ocho Rios, St. Ann – The St. Ann Chamber of Commerce is to hold its annual general meeting at the Jamaica Grande in Ocho Rios this Saturday, and for the first time in three years it will be electing a new president.

Senior vice-president of the SuperClubs chain and 1994 Young Hotelier of the World awardee, 31-year-old Joseph J. Issa, is the man set to replace outgoing president, St. Ann businesswoman. Jeanne Dixon.

A past student of Campion and the College of the Holy Cross in Massachusetts, USA where he graduated cum laude in Accounting and Economics. Mr. Issa is said to have the backing of most Chamber members, and is, according to one member, ‘a virtual lock” to secure the St. Ann Chamber’s top post.

The Gleaner caught up with Issa at his Ocho Rios office and though he expressed confidence in being elected, cautioned that he is not about to “open the champagne bottles” as the votes are still not yet tallied.

Mr. Issa, however, had high praise for the departing president, calling Mrs. Dixon the best leader the Chamber has ever had. “Jeanne has been an inspiration to all of us,” he emphasised. “Personally, I wouldn’t be where I am today without her.”

He sees the St. Ann Chamber at a crossroads and promised that, if elected, his first priority as president would be to bring about peace between business factions in the St. Ann community. “For some time now, there have been too many conflicts involving the business people in this parish,” Issa said. “We need to promote peace and start healing the wounds. To that the new Chamber board, despite the huge tasks ahead, will be the catalyst
to achieve this endeavour.”

    DREAMS of a culinary career seemed all but dashed 10 years earlier for then University of Technology, Jamaica (UTech) student Alrick Sucki.

    With the Sucki patriarch unexpectedly diagnosed with a rare cancer, multiple myeloma, the family’s savings were exhausted in the ailing father’s treatment and care. The medical emergency threw a curve ball in the likelihood of the university student’s completion of his final year of the School of Hospitality and Tourism Management, with financing now seemingly out of reach.

    But life was just about to give Sucki a helping hand — he was awarded the inaugural Jamaica Observer Table Talk Food Awards scholarship in 2005, which, he reflected, “was a lifeline that resurrected a career from the dead”.

    Addressing yesterday’s Jamaica Observer Monday Exchange in the newspaper’s executive boardroom to mark the 17th staging of the Table Talk Food Awards scheduled for Devon House on Thursday, May 28, Sucki — fighting back tears — told the room of Food Awards sponsors, past scholarship recipients, this year’s batch of scholarship hopefuls, as well as reporters and editors, that being awarded the scholarship positively impacted his life and shaped his professional career. “It’s been significant,” Sucki, currently employed as the food and beverage team lead at the Jamaica Pegasus Hotel, said of the scholarship.

    “The footing that was given to me has catapulted me to the heights of management years later, based on being granted the scholarship. It was a bridge literally over a river for me.” Opportunity immediately knocked when news of Sucki being the first scholarship recipient garnered cover story status in the Observer.

    Local hotel magnate Kevin Hendrickson was instantly captivated by Sucki’s hard scrabble tale and the will to succeed, offering the college student a professional start as a relief food and beverage supervisor at The Courtleigh Hotel’s Alexander’s restaurant.

    Tenacious, and not one to shy away from volunteering his time beyond structured hours, Sucki has been rewarded for his work ethic and promoted four times within his decade of employment. Looking back at the journey he’s taken from penniless student to now self-sufficient middle manager, Sucki remains ever grateful.

    “The Observer literally put money back into my family’s pockets through the scholarship,” he shared.“It was a job opportunity for me to earn and from there also fund basic food expenses. The Observer gave me a start and enabled me to take charge and lead my family to a better position now where I can take care of my mother and help put my brother through school,” he added.

    Tales of transformed lives and choruses of gratitude resonated beyond Suki as other scholarship recipients, assisted with bursaries and miscellaneous expenses through the Observer’s programme, revealed the benefits they have since realised.

    For Junior Roberts, a scholarship awardee in 2011 who at the time was working three jobs — one full-time — while enrolled in school and was unable to keep up with the school’s curriculum on account of fatigue, the scholarship was a welcome relief.

    “It was not only being given the scholarship but also participating in the Observer Foodie Seminar leading up the Food Awards that greatly assisted me and gave me focus,” he shared after the Monday Exchange.

    “The guest chef that year, Trinidadian celebrity chef Roger Mooking, gave a presentation that was instructive and opened my eyes to the importance of the little details in what you do always mattering,” Roberts, now a food consultant and caterer-forhire, told the Observer.

    “I also was able to network and meet established chefs who gave me guidance that has helped me along my journey.” It’s a quid pro quo path for Roberts who, having endured his own trials financing his university education, is giving a helping hand to his brother who is pursing engineering studies.

    Twenty-six-year-old Samantha Martin-George, a 2013 scholarship recipient who today operates her own seven-month-old NKLA Deli in the New Kingston Shopping Centre, said the scholarship was a confidence booster.

    “I didn’t think I was necessarily worthy [at the time],” she said, “but it made me realise that I was able to make a mark. “In my final year, I was this close to being kicked out, and I would have to start over the programme if I couldn’t find the money,” Martin-George divulged.

    As one of seven children growing up in humble circumstances in Papine, her working-class contractor father would go months without employment and “we didn’t have a steady flow of income”, she noted.

    “The scholarship came right in time as I would not have been able to finish school. I had student loans for the second and third years, but getting the scholarship in the final year allowed me to finish and allowed me to not pay back so much of the mega-interest, so I’m not so much in debt now.”

    The scholarships — funded from sales of Food Awards tickets — have helped in excess of 50 needy final-year students at UTech’s School of Hospitality and Tourism Management. Last year, $1.3 million in bursaries and miscellaneous donations was awarded to students Lasanna Allen, Nashana Murray, Zola Davis, Leanne Morrison, and Krystal Thomas.

    This year’s event is being sponsored by Victoria Mutual Wealth Management, Sagicor, Supreme Ventures, Digicel, Best Dressed Chicken, Jamaica Yellow Pages, Main Event, Spanish Court Hotel, Johnnie Walker, Ocean Spray, Frigidaire, Carreras Ltd, Business Access TV, Island Rentals, and Wata

    A small fire that was detected at the Riverton Dump in Kingston on Saturday was the result of spontaneous combustion.

    A representative from the National Solid Waste Management Authority told the Jamaica Observer on Sunday that the small fire started on its own and was concentrated in a small area of the dump.

    The NSWMA, in a news release on Sunday, reported that the small fire had started about 4:00 pm but was quickly extinguished.

    “The fire was completely extinguished within two hours and did not affect operations at the disposal site,” NSWMA said in the release.

    The agency, however, advised that the response team remained in position and was keeping a keen watch while monitoring the disposal site.

    “We assure the public that all measures are in place to deal with any recurrence,” NSWMA said.

    JAMAICA Observer online readers say they are not surprised at the declaration by the Southern Regional Health Authority (SHRA) that it had no knowledge that a shortage of pathologists in the region was badly affecting police investigations. It was revealed in the Observer lead story yesterday that currently there is only one pathologist serving the parishes of St Elizabeth, Manchester and Clarendon, for which SHRA has responsibility. Here are some edited comments:

    limbolee

    Nothing new, they can only know what is happening in their departments and organisations if they read the Observer. Such a shame people have to wait so long to get an autopsy before they can bury their loved ones.

    peejay the original

    Another example, Observer, they just don’t read/watch the news. Last week man was to be buried had to stop the funeral to get the rest of the bullets out of the body? If they do it then it is only half complete. What else is going to happen this week? Because something pops out of order, no supplies, etc. Now someone tells me this PNP is on the eighth ball. Yea, right!

    err gag ViewMaster

    Is it a case of not enough pathologists, or far too many murders?

    We could make a case for gravediggers in Jamaica… not enough a dem!

    Whofeelsitknows

    @err gag ViewMaster: Pathologists do autopsies on natural death, death post- surgery etc; it’s not just ppl who were murdered.

    @liqyliqy

    SRHA, come on, how can you not know about this problem? Don’t you do audits? Ok, now that you are aware of the HUGE backlog let’s see how fast you clear it up and if you employ more pathologist.

    What do these jokers know?

    What a calamity!

    fieldgar

    Everyone in Jamaica seems to be satisfied with substandard procedures so no concerted effort is made to make improvements. It’s part of the “no problem mon” mentality.

    Top Shelf

    @fieldgar: “Everyone in Jamaica seems to be

    satisfied with substandard procedures.” Some sick cretins who lurk here will say you’re pulling down the country if you ask for improvement.

    Poor people dead a Jamaica.

    proactive

    We are so reactive to every situation, we can never get in front of a problem. No proactive action on any level of government, how could they not know of this problem?

    Richie L

    To Jamaica Observer readers: Let’s all get together and form a Gofundme campaign to fund the

    salary for 10

    new pathologists/medical examiners in Jamaica for 10 years. Jamaica needs pathologists because it takes too long to perform autopsies.

    Lloyd Lee

    @Richie L: This is a right bright idea, let us talk about it… for those who care.

    Anoni Muss

    @Richie L: While government squanders taxpayers’ money?! U muss be a mad man!

    CESAG6542

    @Richie L: I applaud your idea and initiative; however, maybe you need to really think it through carefully. The average salary for a pathologist is between US$150,000 to US$180,000 and that is based on years of experience. The reason why the salary is so high, it is a specialised skill. Now if you take US$150,000 (multiply by) 10, you are looking at $1.5 million a year multiplied by 10 years. And, that cost is basic salary not to mention the added perks like housing and transportation that are usually added in to contracts of that nature. I think it might be best we voice our frustration to the Government and with a collective voice we let them know the power of the union between the diaspora and the locals. We, at times, forget that it is us who put them in power and we can take them out if we want to.

    mooney65

    So with one pathologist covering several parishes and multiple autopsies required, how could they not think it would be problematic for the police? Wow!

    Leopold

    Ritchie, few months back this writer appealed to foreign and local residents that we come together and purchase needed medical equipment for the hospitals. A bit of interest was shown and that was the end of the story. Jamaicans, we have all the solutions in writings and talking.

    Whofeelsitknows

    So can you imagine when we put this person on shift! How efficient it will become! Not!

    “STIPULATED”

    Another crisis in the health sector. Shortage of pathologists is a long-standing issue; one pathologist servicing three parishes, and nothing major was done to solve the problem. So will this new lab only require one pathologist?

    MONTEGO BAY, St James — The Savanna-la-Mar Infant and St John’s Infant school — both in Westmoreland — both had libraries opened at their institutions last week by

    Education Minister Ronald Thwaites, and Agriculture Minister Derrick Kellier.

    Some $11 million was spent on the project at Savanna-la-Mar, while the St John’s Infant School library was built and equipped at a cost of just more than $10.1 million. Funding for the projects was provided by the Sugar Transformation Unit (STU) in the Ministry of Agriculture.

    Speaking at the opening of the Savanna-la-Mar Infant School Library, Minister Thwaites called on parents to start playing a bigger role in the lives of their children, especially at this time when there are numerous distractions among that group.

    “We have to spread in Jamaica an ethic where parents, whether they are rich or poor, are going to put their children first. Today is a call for that new responsibility. And as we educate our children, we also have to ensure that we educate parents because many of us become parents before we really know how,” he said.

    The minister said that infant schools across the island have to become centres for parenting education, where parents can be taught life skills on how to take care of their children.

    “Parents must learn how to take care of the little children, what to do with them, how to nourish them properly…and how to sacrifice one’s own pleasures and needs in order that the little children may prosper,” said Thwaites.

    Thwaites said the Government has been placing much emphasis on the development and improvement of early childhood education and called on the public to help in the cause.

    “The Government’s policy is to put in more resources and to invite the country to invest more and more in early childhood education,” the minister pointed out.

    Meanwhile, Minister Kellier praised the late former Agriculture Minister Roger Clarke for his effort in getting the funds to establish the Sugar Transformation Unit (STU), which donated the money to build and equip the libraries.

    “In 2005, Clarke pounded the pavement of the European member states to secure compensation, based on the impact of the reduction of sugar prices by 36 per cent at the time. That particular trip yielded over 146,000 euros by way of the EU-funded Accompanying Measures for sugar protocol,” said Kellier.

    He pointed out that the library at Savanna-la-Mar was one of five new facilities being completed in collaboration with the Jamaica Library Service, with funds from the STU, adding that the library will serve 350 students.

  11. UK growth forecast downgraded by British Chambers of Commerce

    Business group expects gross domestic product to increase by 3% for 2014, down from a previous outlook of 3.2%
    A business group has downgraded its forecast for UK growth this year in what it says is a warning sign in the struggle to achieve a sustainable recovery.

    The British Chambers of Commerce (BCC) expects gross domestic product to increase by 3% for 2014, down from a previous outlook of 3.2%.

    It would still be the best growth since before the recession, but has been cut from the previous forecast because of weaker-than-expected performances from the dominant services sector as well as household consumption and exports, the BCC said.

  14. Hotel revenue and occupancy in Scotland leads UK

    Occupancy and revenue in Scotland’s hotels continued its strong performance during November to lead the rest of the UK according to the latest report by accountants and business advisers, BDO LLP. The firm’s monthly hotel survey found that year-on-year revenue (the industry term for rooms yield) rose 13.2% to £54.38 in Scotland compared to an increase of 11.5% in regional UK to £46.04; a rise of 11.4% in England to £45.16 and an increase of 12.7% to £41.20 in Wales. Despite having the lowest increase in occupancy during November Scottish hotels still had the highest percentage at 77.2% compared to 75.8% in regional UK; 75.7% in England and 74.5% in Wales.

    Once again Aberdeen had the highest monthly revenue in the UK, despite falling occupancy, outside London at £77.95 with Glasgow the fourth highest figure in the UK (after Solihull airport and Manchester) at £60.87. Edinburgh revenue was £52.91 with Inverness £31.44.

    Alastair Rae, a partner in the Property, Leisure and Hospitality sector at BDO, said: “Scotland continues to have a very busy and lucrative 2014 with the highest occupancy and revenue levels despite strong improvements for the rest of the UK.”

  15. Yorkshire hotels set for another busy summer

    Hotels in the region are once again among the star performers across the UK, according to the latest research by R3, the insolvency trade body. In Yorkshire and the Humber, the number of hotels at a higher than normal risk of insolvency fell further in June, decreasing by 2% since the previous month.

    Of the 467 active hotels in Yorkshire and the Humber, just 93 (19.9%) are now at higher than normal risk of insolvency. This puts it amongst the lowest levels in the UK with Wales at 19.4%, the only other region getting close to London’s figure of 18.8%. The most worrying levels of risk in the hotel sector were seen in the East Midlands (27.8%), the East of England (25.4%) and the South West (24.9%). Across the UK as a whole, the level of risk among hotels was 22.2%, a fall of nearly 2% since May.

    R3 uses research compiled from Bureau van Dijk’s ‘Fame’ database of company information to track the number of businesses in key regional sectors that have a heightened risk of entering insolvency in the next year.

As President Obama said, in relation to the United States’ strategy against Cuba, if after 50 years the plan doesn’t work, it’s time to try something new. Our plans here in Jamaica clearly are not working as quickly as we would like, so we have nothing to lose studying the Canadiansiniatives if we have not already done so.”
