What it's like to be a POLITICIAN in JAMAICA. ft. Minister Delano Seiveright.

Inside Jamaican politics: tourism, foreign investments, property development, and many other topics that you might want to bring up with a representative of the Jamaican Government.
Today our guest happens to be a politician: Senator Delano Seiveright, Minister of State in the Ministry of Tourism.

However, this video is not a formal interview with a minister like one might expect, but rather an interesting conversation on different important topics in Jamaica. I've personally learnt so much from this conversation, and I hope you do too. Enjoy
