The glowing pictures that are anticipated will not be realized in the context of the \u2018business as usual\u2019 mode,\u201d he told veteran broadcast journalist <strong>David Ellis<\/strong> and tourism officials gathered for the discussion.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have to talk about how this Caribbean will recover in a manner that will (ensure) growth, <strong>real growth<\/strong>, not just arrivals, not just number of people coming into our space, but how is it going to enable the Caribbean, the economies of the Caribbean to grow and the well-being of our people to be enhanced?\u201d he expressed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe hard cold facts are that the recovery is not going to see us being able to grow economically if we aren&#8217;t able to <strong>respond on the supply side<\/strong>,\u201d Minister Bartlett said, adding that while tourism is the fastest way to transfer wealth from the rich to the poor, \u201cthat transfer can only happen if the absorptive capacity is in the recipient destination.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Jamaican minister cautioned, \u201cIf we cannot <strong>retain the dollar<\/strong> in our area to the benefit of our people, then we would have been just a plantation like we were in colonial times.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The experienced legislator asserted the <strong>sociology of tourism<\/strong> reveals a structure that is antithetical to local development and growth: \u201cIt is a pyramid that suggests at the top full control of who the visitors are, which country they can go to, what carriers they can use to reach there. And then in the middle are some who deal with when they come, where do they go, which hotels they go to, which attractions they go to. And then at the bottom of it all is the poor workers who get absolutely nothing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He described a retention capacity of 10 to 15 cents on the dollar as unsustainable. \u201cWhat we must do in the region is to <strong>build out the capacity<\/strong> at every link in that value chain to make sure that the Caribbean people are at the heart of it and are getting their returns,\u201d he declared, adding that leakages (primarily from the imports of the goods and services that the industry requires) ought to be plugged by boosting tourism linkages with other sectors of the local economy such as agriculture, culture, and transportation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy job is to help us look at how do we create an <strong>architecture that focuses heavily on supplies<\/strong>. How do we enable the Caribbean as a region to draw more from the many visitors?\u201d he challenged his colleagues. The new architecture, he stressed, must focus on the retention of the tourism dollar within the region.<\/p>\n<p>Minister Bartlett recommended an examination of the value chain and what type of investment is required to enable the Caribbean to benefit more.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As the region takes on recovery challenges, Jamaica\u2019s Minister of Tourism Edmund Bartlett wants to see a repurposed Caribbean tourism architecture that increases benefits for locals.
