Land ownership opens many doors of opportunities and your government continues to follow through on our commitment to give titles to Jamaicans as we formalize and legitimize their ownership of land.
Under the National Land Agency's Systematic Land Registration (SLR) programme residents of St. Catherine received their titles yesterday.
This land title handover is a recognition of their fundamental right to own property, a means to generate wealth for their families and communities.

At the invitation of the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, His Royal Highness, Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud, I am in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia with fellow Caricom Heads, for the inaugural Caricom-Saudi Arabia Summit in the capital city of Riyadh.
I extend thanks to His Royal Highness Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Abdulaziz, Deputy Governor of the Riyadh Region for the warm welcome following my arrival at the King Khalid International Airport today.
Jamaica continues to pursue investment and partnership opportunities for our national development and looks forward to robust discussions with Saudi Arabia, for our mutual benefit.

With all the sadness we have all felt over the past few days, Lizzie-Mae brought so much joy with her warm hug and sweet request for an autograph, which I was more than happy to give.
Talk about prepared! She even walked with her own pencil and paper.
How can we find it in our hearts to hurt our innocent children?

Our kids are as bright and brilliant as they are beautiful! I met the cutest group of schoolchildren when I visited North Western Clarendon last week. Their sweet introduction and firm handshakes warmed my heart immensely.
We must create a Jamaica that is good for them, because they deserve it.

The more homes we hand over, the more Jamaicans see what possibilities exist for them, even if they are not yet homeowners.
The fact is more and more Jamaicans are able to own their own homes, which means so can you!
The policies are there to support you. Keep working towards your homeownership goals. At the right time, everything will fall into place to make it happen. Be encouraged that we are creating the environment for your economic success.
I invite you then, to join me in congratulating the 35 Jamaicans who today happily collected their National Housing Trust keys to their very own homes.
