KINGSTON, Jamaica,  CMC – The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has issued a warning to persons traveling to Trinidad and Tobago in the wake of recent reports of several Jamaicans having been denied entry into that Caribbean Community (CARICOM) country recent weeks.

"The ministry is concerned at this development and continues to interface with the relevant authorities in Trinidad and Tobago on the matter, including in the light of the Shanique Myrie ruling by the Caribbean Court of Justice," said a release issued by the Ministry.

It stated that a few Jamaicans have reported the incidents to the Ministry and as a result the High Commission in Trinidad has been instructed to obtain clarification and information from the authorities in the twin island republic.

The Ministry has urged Jamaicans who believe their rights under the CSME Regime were breached, to make a report to the nearest Jamaican High Commission or the Ministry.

The Foreign Affairs Ministry also reminded Jamaicans that the freedom of movement provision does not give permission to work and persons falling outside of the ten agreed categories will require work permits or exemptions. 

Meanwhile it has been reported that 13 Jamaicans were denied entry into the twin island republic on Tuesday. According to a report in the Jamaica Observer newspaper Trinidadian immigration officers denied them entry, detained them and sent them back to Jamaica on the first flight on Wednesday morning

is not we. look who wukkin at customs

Is TNt immigration similar to past australian policies?  Two wongs dont make one white

Everybody knows an illegal person, sweeten the deal by offering a $1000 for info, once the illegal is deported they can collect the $1000. This will help a lot of poor Trinis who are barely able to afford food this Christmas..

Let the immigration Officers do their Job! Snitching is not very honourable, especially snitching for reward!

T&T needs to protect their sovereignty and the Minister Of National Security is merely performing his duty . Jamaicans and Guyaneses have decided to live and work in T&T , Antigua and Barbados , in order to send the foreign currency to their homelands . The ones who are not doing well , commit crimes in order to survive

Quote:Isn't it strange over 15,000 Jamaican entered the country of T&T legally this year , less than
500 turned back based on problems at Immigration.

Now over 17,000 have absconded and did not returned to Jamaica , living in T&T illegally .

Did our Jamaican papers state the above .Why should they, it doesn't sell newspapers.

Before we judge any one check out the facts , you will find we are wrong on 7 out of 10 times.

Incidentally I am Jamaican.

very good!  I did not know this!

where you getting your stats Chin ::confused::
