Episode Details

Jamaica’s opposition leader Mark Golding wants the diaspora to take a more active role in governance, even sitting on public boards, arguing their expertise and resources are vital. But political commentator Lloyd B. Smith calls it “farfetched,” insisting local talent is already available and underutilized due to political divides. Smith urges the diaspora to keep investing, mentoring, and creating global business opportunities instead of formal governance roles, warning of accountability and logistical hurdles. While Golding’s party proposes a national assembly with diaspora input, Smith remains skeptical, doubting the practicality and ethics of such a move.
