    This is the Jamaica my daddy always tells me about, where you could have left your front door unlocked or sleep outside on the varanda.

      I believe it was. The island is still progressing, but is more develop than countries under the British, which I am speaking knowledge. However, poor political decision and accountibility has affected the island.
