MONTEGO BAY, St James - Mayor of New Orleans, Ray Nagin, says as his city rebuilds in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, it would be moving to strengthen economic ties with Jamaica. "As we look to rebuild New Orleans, we are also looking to rebuild relationships and the first place that we are looking to rebuild and strengthen relationships is Jamaica," said Nagin.

The New Orleans mayor who is vacationing in the island with his wife Seletha and three children, at a private villa owned by Sandals chairman, Gordon 'Butch' Stewart, was speaking to reporters in Montego Bay at a brief ceremony hosted by Sandals Resorts, shortly after his arrival at the Sangster International Airport on Friday. Stewart is also chairman of the Jamaica Observer.

If the show was still on the air, Damon Wayans could play Nagin in "In Living Color's" Hey Mon! skit series.

Maybe he should consider going home and doing the job he was elected to do while his city is still in crisis.

[Veto!]

The good citizens of NOLA, still working hard to rebuild their homes and lives, will pause and honor the mayor at 3:00 today with a moment of silence commemorating the splendid job he did in keeping the city safe and secure. Immediately following, there will be a funds drive to buy clothing and food to send to the poor citizens of Jamaica.

It is incredibly important for there to be good relations between New Orleans. Must be the foreign aide or the Jamaican tourists.
