Prime Minister Gaston Browne I would like to bring a matter to your attention. I have been a tenant in Jolly Harbour since 1994.

My business was owned and operated by the late Hans-Bert Kupin from 1992. Recently with the new developments in Jolly Harbour, myself and the other tenants were excited.
The tennis courts, pool, pickle ball courts and other amenities were being rebuilt and other major developments which spells good for the Jolly Harbour community. The derelict casino is being demolished.
At least for the first time, since 1994, we have seen major improvements and some exciting developments. The problem is that the current tenants have been left in limbo with no clear indication about their status and the future of their business in JH.
The average monthly rent is about EC 2500. Now we have been sent emails (see attached) with units that will cost over EC 10k per month. The issue with this, is that other tenants have been sent emails with half of this size and whilst I am not one to make an issue about race, it seems like those receiving the lower sized units are white and those with the higher priced units are all black owned local businesses.
There is seemingly a concerted effort to force all the black owned businesses out of Jolly Harbour. Recently, the guy from the golf cart rental office asked where he can park his carts because they needed the land that his cart is parked on for development. The response from the CFO was, “you can park it in Orange Valley for all I care.”

I asking you to please look into this issue because the tenants are at their wits end. There is a concerted efforts by those in charge to change the face (remove the black owned business) of Jolly Harbour.
