Bartlett clueless after all these years

[Sir X]

It seems as if Tourism Minister Edmund Bartlett can't admit that ganja is one of the major attractions that draw tourists to Jamaica. A friend of mine recently told me about meeting two visitors from Lapland. That's way to the north of Finland. What had brought these Finns all this distance to Jamaica? They said it was ganja.

Last week, I googled 'Ganja tourism to Jamaica'. Mr Bartlett needs to do the same. He might be alarmed to see that we are already positioned as a ganja destination. And we're in excellent company with other upscale leisure markets. Here's a whiff from a UK Guardian report published on September 9, 2013 before ganja was partially decriminalised here.

Like our Reggae, Ska and Dancehall music, we'll wait until some white foreigner comes and package ganja and then sell it back to us before we accept it's earning powers.
