It is not the government’s intention to make Jamaica a casino or gambling destination. These will not be standalone casinos where anyone can just walk in off the street. We are creating integrated resorts, where gambling is just one part of a bigger experience. If gambling isn’t your interest, you can enjoy the beach, tours, or other attractions. We are also growing our cultural and entertainment offerings. We are building a performing arts institution in Montego Bay and planning attractions like an oceanarium. We want visitors to come for theatre, culture, and fun, not just gambling. Casinos will be part of the tourism experience, not the focus. This policy is about broadening tourism, creating jobs, and giving visitors and Jamaicans more to enjoy.(Andrew Holness)
