Jamaica shut down government holiday parties after Hurricane Melissa wrecked the country, and Education Minister Dana Morris Dixon said offices can do small recognition stuff internally, but renting outside spaces is off the table. She wants agencies to reach out to workers living in destroyed areas instead of throwing big events.
The government told private companies to keep their parties rolling since hotels started canceling bookings, and Morris Dixon pushed people in less damaged zones to go spend cash and make up for the economic hit out west. She said Jamaicans should balance shopping with volunteering in communities that got hammered the worst.
