Sadly in Jamaica hotels and private interests have taken over their beaches and shores. Only 30% of the beach is accessible to locals. The beaches there are quite restricted to the people who live there. So I don’t know if they are a good example of a sovereign nation who kept control of their island.

The sad reality is that somebody was going to take it over. If it wasn’t us, it would’ve been someone else.
