hey what's going on in st Thomas? boi the road is in a very bad condition.i went to Kingston via st Thomas this morning from Portland and it's a terrible mistake i made.the road is in a very bad condition especially when you pass hardly crossing all very bad till I reach yallahas but i must say the highway was excellent first I'm driving on it!

Alligator or Crocodile? It is widely believed tgat we have no Gators in Jamaica, only Crocs.

Aggi u under arrest for trespassing.

Jamaica is hilly and Gully Gully and looking at the land of how some of these houses are built there wasn't a plan,so the layout of where these people build their houses is not adequate to the land layout. They seem to build their houses at a lower level so obviously gravity will naturally play its part when it rains.

Bwoy a 3 Stacy Adam’s shoes dem fi mek out a him blood seed and a belt fi match. See it deh

Hopefully this will be addressed. Bless up for the update

GREAT JOB ESM

EM my friend you are at it again showing the grave damage to the world done by the hurricane 🌀 💯 you have been to areas that the officials should be riding along with you so they can see not hear but see what the citizens of St.Thomas are dealing with the pay taxes outsiders come to Jamaica make money pay NO TAXES for the first five years and the born citizens are getting no action on this issue this is sad.I hope some relief is on the way.stay safe. 🎉🎉🎉

Waaw st Thomas mash up bad mon it really needs ergent attention this is seriously needed

Such beautiful scenery, u have done a great job on this video, love it thanks.

most days in my house it full of dust, due to neighbors passing my house. Can I be upset at my neighbors like these people are upset about road works that will be gone in a year? I mean, I faced the dust for ten years and will face it until I die

THIS. STRETCH. of ROAD WAS 10. TIMES. WORST THAN WHAT IT WAS!! WE. R SUFFERING FROM UNGRATEFUL DISEASE!! TRUST Mi😮 😎 THE. SOLUTION is the. CONSTRUCTION of. LONG STRETCH of RETAINING WALLS !! To PREVENT SILPPAGES FROM. FALLING onto THE. ROADS!! WIRY NETTED CONVERING NEEDED AROUND. DRAINS To PREVENT THE COLLECTIING of SLIPPAGES FROM HILL SIDES. ..... ALSO THE PLANTING of TREES ALONG The TERRAINS WILL HELP!!

I guess the finishing touches along the corridor wasn't done

Hope the government, NWA and JPS step in quickly to help these people. Btw, how that woman's face looks so excoriated like she a wash har face wid di cake soap? People we need to be proud to be young, gifted and black.

EM first let me say i love your hat i am asking one question WHY WHY WHY are the citizens of St.Thomas pleading and begging the government the elected officials so much for help??? This is disgraceful and the world is watching no one have control of nature the citizens are willing to work together to clear and clean up their roads etc and what are the representatives doing NOTHING the man in the red front shirt should listen to the people and bring them help ASAP. Thank you EM for putting all of this out the people must know what to do WHEN THE RIGHT TIME COME. Stay safe watching from the US 🇺🇸

I hope the problems highlighted in this video will not be overlooked, and solutions will be applied to remedy the issues. Together, we can build a sustainable Jamaica....

Love the scenery of the hillside...lush and green.

Big difference with you in your parish everbless family TV KZfaq channel supporting u

Many years ago there was a program for river training. This would make sure that rivers kept the original route. Groins (as we call it) or Casian Basket would be repaired or added as necessary. The simple act of planting shrubs, grass and other vegetation would be used to retain soil but over time the process became too costly and now this is the result. I see a big problem, not just with this river but many more in the country. And then there is the problem where people are forced to put houses in areas where there should not be, so when there is a break away, someone is going to get caught in the middle. So how do we fix this complex problem?

The main reason they would use you guys to push their agenda is because you guys get lots of views from local people more than they could get in person face-to-face

One of the main things that you guys must keep in mind it is not any particular party that is fixed in the road that is the government the government of Jamaica borrow money from China and it just came time for the project to be put in place originally it was supposed to be on highway from Kingston straight to Portland a real highway they took away after money and that's why they're only upgraded the local roads so it is not labor or PNP that is fixing the road it is a Jamaican government program on Chinese money I don't think you guys do a good job explaining that to people when you make blog videos you are people believing that it is the labor government that is fixing all these roads it is not the same way it was not PNP when I highway 2000

I think the politicians are using lots of your bloggers to push their agenda I've been noticing that with your friend Curtis flex I start noticing that a few months ago I think politicians start using your bloggers to push their agenda

Nat gonna lie we need to stap depend an politician we need to stap support den di whooooole a dem

Its the force of nature that U can't fight. It happens all over the world

🙏 Prayers for the island and all the people impacted. Thanks for showing us the beautiful views.

Cannot imagine a tree posing such a danger to your property & community, and you do nothing about it - and then it takes J$5K to remove it AFTER the foreseen damage is done, simply because we are waiting on a politician to address the issue. Evidently, mining the sand would have helped....but then too, across the length & breadth of Jamaica, people build where they feel to, including on the banks of a river which they know is uncontrollable when it rains....and usually, it is the children of slaves keep making this kind of mistake. If the authorities affirm that the area is not for residential purposes, that would be another outcry. We need to make better decisions. We are nearly 200 years post the end of slavery 1838, in JA. What is wrong with us!

That SO CALLED mayor is very disrespectful. He is standoffish and NOT hearing a word these people saying to him They should vote him out next opportunity the get

The whole road from bath to golden grove needs to be redone, lifted and drains put in place

People should not have to be begging so hard for help, water 🚿 and fire 🔥 if deadly, people life is important, the government need to see to their wellbeing, no one have control over nature. Help the people you are elected to serve. Thanks Eastside media for sharing, blessings 👏🏽💕

Too many people with degrees, but no knowledge are leading the various state agencies in Jamaica. The people with the lived experiences are the best source of knowledge when designing and implementing infrastructural projects across the island. Far too often, the ordinary citizens offer advice/information to the technocrats, but are ignored as they are not seen as "qualified". In most cases, the problems that citizens foresee happening and highlight them, but are ignored usually manifest themselves. It's time to start listening to the citizens.

I understand their plight, but the underlying problem is they live too near the river and nature is difficult to control Saying the mayor don't look concerned beg to ask if it prefer to pretend like he do?

Thanks to this man for the explanation. Have no clue what that lady was saying 🤷‍♀️ but believe her. And big ups to the volunteer. Ask fi what yuh want yes. Politicians are Jamaica’s biggest problem. And for those talking about voting, whether the ppl vote or not, this is the result. New politicians, old ones, JLP, PNP, same story. That last road is always like that with flooding - like forever

Those ministers are not listening, they don't care he shows no consideration no support for humanity in their community

But you the people a damn fool stop vote but as dem come round and give a little dollar everyone run gone vote

What kind of mayor dis ??????? Him look like him care ??? Smh bwoy Jamaica a get worse everyday

EM my friend you are doing awesome great service for your parish and its citizens you want far up high up to show the extent of the damage done by the hurricane i also hope the powers that be the big trousers men and women see this video and do the right thing 💯 for these farmers that toil day and night to plant and reap to feed their families. This is one of if not the most informative video I have seen coming from you keep up the great work and keep us informed hullaing from the US 🇺🇸 stay safe 🎉 🎉 🎉 👍

You are one of my favourite you tubers. Keep it real and stay humble young man.

I hope that these coffee farmers will get some help to reestablish their farms. Jamaican coffee is ranked high amongst the best in the world, and as such, every effort must be made to ensure that the brand stays on the market. Thanks for going above and beyond to show us what is happening across the mountains, hills, valleys, and plains across Eastern Jamaica.

Very good. Lots of new and important information. You certainly make the effort. Thank you very much.

Big up to you and the farmer Devon and Kenton and Nigel watching from the UK

Nice showing EM..I hope those farmers can get some relief for their crops soon!!
