MONTEGO Bay, St James — Opposition Leader Mark Golding has called for members of the Jamaican Diaspora to be given greater opportunities to participate in national development through appointments to public boards, arguing that their expertise and commitment to the country can strengthen governance and public administration.
He was addressing the 11th Biennial Jamaica Diaspora Conference at the Montego Bay Convention Centre on Tuesday.
“I would encourage mechanisms to be established to facilitate your presence and participation on public boards in the country. There are over 100 of them, and they cover a wide array of very important activities,” Golding told delegates.
