In an interview in the Jamaican Observer of Tuesday, September 19, 2023. The Opposition Leader Mark Golding spoke below. Our economy, as everyone knows, has become heavily dependent on tourism. It is a major contributor to the GDP and employment. It is one of the country's fastest-growing industries that directly employs 175,000 Jamaicans and generates indirect employment for another 354,000 people.

The larger hotels have adopted an enclave model where guests enjoy their entire visit by staying within the hotel or going on tours organized by the hotel. This means the benefits of the sector do not sufficiently drive the local economy, even though significant portions of taxpayer dollars are being spent on advertising Jamaica to promote the industry," he argued.
