By Warren Augustine Lyon . Several commemorative Jamaican coins featuring Prince Charles (now King Charles III) were issued in the 1970s and 1980s, typically as high-value silver proof, or "proof-like" numismatic items rather than everyday currency. But the DPM for Jamaica is proposing a commemorative coin.

The DPM of Jamaica is now announcing that Copa Cabana Beach near St. Elizabeth and Bull Bay will now be known as Copa Cabana ( Bob Marley Memorial) Beach for friends and family to enjoy. It will be open to the public seven days a week. It was named accordingly for quite some time now. But, a sign will be placed there to confirm the beach officially as the Bob Marley Memorial Beach. This is to take effect immediately on April 25th, 2026.

When people have not paid their small debt and then have suffered identity cancellation; what do we do? This dynamic creates a specific legal and social stalemate. If the government has provided mortgage forgiveness but the recipients are refusing a nominal daily payment (such as $5.00), the situation shifts from a total denial of rights to a **contractual and status dispute**.

The DPM of Jamaica is now proposing a new Jamaica Disability programme called the Get Up Stand Up program. The program funds disabled persons with a benefit card of USD $50.00 per day plus taxes for daily spending on personal needs. This is in addition to the PJ Daily Bread benefit to be paid into every TRN citizen's bank account at $ USD 71.42 per day as of April 1st 2026. These disabled persons will also receive a JPS transit driver in an equipped van or transport to carry them to any requested destinations for attendance at Doctor's, to the supermarket, to church and to visit any friends or family. They may also get transport once a month to a North Coast destination such as the RIU Ocho Rios if requested by the person ; within the program. They will book the daily buffet. If the disability is work related whether or not they are allegations against the benefit recipient, then their benefits card will provide an additional $20.00 per day plus taxes. They will also receive a home paid for by the government; such as a unit at Casa Monte in need for renovation or something similar for example or it may be an independent fully detached home that is already in need of renovation. They may receive renovations paid for at their current home and these renovations will include New media equipment for the disabled; new TV and blue tooth speakers that provide blue tooth speaker phone support with Voice Activated call answer. This programme is to be initiated immediately. From the Office of the DPM.

In the spear heading of a redevelopment of UWI throughout the West Indies and it's new school direction along with building renovations that include New extension construction projects, there is a Tourism Management Business and Accounting program. Hugh Douse may be assisting as UWI Director of programming. The tuition will be for the time being $ USD 1000.00 per month for the one month Diploma with attendance every day for 30 days; since it is partially funded by the Government. There will also be a new Athletics and Abilities Centre with a swimming pool, Olympic Diving tower. It will also include a gymnastics and weights room entitled the PJ Patterson Athletics and Abilities Centre.

All Jamaican Resorts now have a local rate of $ JMD 4000.00 per person to access the day and evening time buffets. This will give them access from 12 pm to 7 pm. The rate of $34 per night per person is available to all locals year round. This does not include the buffets. This will continue after Melissa for locals. All Jamaica hotels will continue to offer a Melissa storm discount to assist in providing shelter to those who have come to Jamaica to help in the recovery. If you book any stay for a month or more starting today ending in May 2026, you will pay only $34.00 per night. Most hotels in the circumstances including the major brands have included full catering. Some Sandals Hotels and other resorts are offering rooms at USD $1000.00 per person per month with an additional day rate for the buffet access (USD $10.00 to 20.00).

Jamaica is an island with more churches per capita than in any other island; a community we have to agree on that. There can be no demands on the pulpits as to who will get to teach on Sunday; especially not those who destroy; especially not those who fail to help in the work. JOHN SMITH aka Andrew Holness is now formally a convict in Jamaica for criminal trespass, entering the island with falsified information. He did not confirm truthfully his status as convict. He was therefore never Prime Minister. There is no change to the current status otherwise or resource of previous Prime Ministers and they will attend dinners and functions in their current schedule. The Governor General carries on in his duties until further notice with the Governor General providing support in the shared role. Parliament is prorogued during this military administration. The DPM Warren Gonzales A. Lyon confirms that Jamaica will also be purchasing four Saab state of the art Grippen fighter jets. We thank former Prime Minister Manley, Patterson and Seaga for all of their contributions. More is to come; a new Caribbean normal where everyone gets the benefit and can enjoy.

There will be a Cuban public service officer working at every Public Service Office in Jamaica during the rebuilding as supported by Cuban Police and Soldiers who may already be on the island. They will also assist any JCF on emergency calls or the JDF where necessary. This is within the Caricom Contingency plans for national integrity and security in emergencies. Many of the resorts are owned and managed by Cuba. Thank you. Many of the rebuilding projects will be managed by Cuba and some by the Caymans. Thank you. Warren A. Lyon, DPM.
