Originated from the pre-Columbian American tradition, it has absorbed the legacy of Spanish and British immigrants, combined with African indigenous influences. The most remarkable and prominent feature of the local culture is Jamaican distinctive music. Moving and exciting sounds of Reggae are heard everywhere throughout the island and coincide with the rhythm of the local soul. Reggae is a soulful syncopated style of Jamaican music. In the beginning it played a role of carrying political, social and religious messages of black population against racism, oppression and discrimination. Reggae songs are full of metaphor, expression and praise of God. This music became world-renowned with the help of musician Bob Marley, whose songs colorfully portray the life of the Jamaicans. The island's rich artistic heritage reaches back to the days, when Arawak Indians carved the ceilings and walls of caverns. Examples can still be seen in caves dotted throughout the island. Today Jamaica, and particularly Kingston, is a center of Caribbean art, its vital cultural energy having flourished tremendously since independence in 1962. Depicting life and landscape, Jamaican paintings feature bright colors and bold lines. Local handicrafts include those of straw, shell, wood, semi-precious stone, as well as pottery and garments. African, Indian, European and Arawak cultures had a great impact on the development of local arts and crafts.

Extractions: In the wake of the terrible attacks on America and the resulting fallout in world travel, a Caribbean airline says business has been better than originally anticipated. Air Jamaica marketing executive Allen Chastanet said he believes the carrier will exceed budget for both January and February this year, while advance bookings for March, April, May and June look extremely promising. "The critical question is when do we stop the level of discounting that we are having to do in order to resuscitate this business." Chairman of Air Jamaica, Dr. Gordon 'Butch' Stewart, speaking to travel agents and industry partners in New Jersey last week, said: "Mr. Bin Laden messed up Air Jamaica much less than most people were affected and we never did fall below a 50 percent load factor (after the terrorist attacks)." Chastanet, who is the airline’s senior vice president of marketing and sales, noted that several routes were recovering nicely due to a release of "pent up demand" and people were resuming their travel plans despite the recent warm weather in the United States. In particular, loads to the Dutch island of Curaçao from Montego Bay have been steady while business to Barbados is on the increase. Air Jamaica serves Barbados with non-stop flights from New York and via the Montego Bay hub in Jamaica.

Extractions: Jamaica has always had its fair share of working poor - fishermen, farmers and merchants who lived in small shacks and huts with their families. These were often ramshackle affairs of cardboard and metal bits. One benefit of living in a warm climate is that thick walls and sturdy structures aren't necessary to keep out the snow. One group of such homes was near Kingstown, near a refuse dump, which many scavenged to find useful items. The government stepped in to help and built Trenchtown to house the displaced people. To try to improve the condition of the people, instead of putting them in little huts, they built one and two story concrete homes for them, nicely laid out around central water and cooking facilities. They thought they were building a new community for the people, that would help them come together as a group. Of course, little works out the way it was planned. The homes had no sewer systems, and quickly became a dirty, crowded area that baked in the summer and was cold and dark in the winter. In the meantime, those who controlled the wealth of Jamaica enjoyed the resort beaches and fine lifestyle that centuries of sugar plantation exploitation had brought them.

Extractions: HOME JAMAICA's CUL TURE Jamaica 's culture, in the words of Prime Minister P. J. Patterson, is the linchpin that bonds us as a people and is vital to our quality of life", and like that of any other country, is reflected in everything that we do. Our culture influences and affects our belief systems and the goals we set for our future. Several initiatives are now being introduced towards making Jamaica a cultural mecca, capable of bringing in significant economic benefits and greater worldwide recognition to the nation in this area. These include improving infrastructure at the community level to facilitate cultural exposes, more systematic recording of cultural events and places, and encouraging educational institutions to offer youth and community-based training programmes, by the provision of necessary funding and expertise. The Jamaican cultural expression / landscape is dynamic and therefore almost always changing. As soon as one becomes accustomed to a particular trend, it changes, hinting at the level of creativity and diversity of the people, and their passionate desire to be constantly on the move to embrace the next adventure. The expressions of the people have been, and continue to be, influenced by several peoples such as the Arawak
