Top three national issues I intend to address if elected:
• Advocate and work for Caymanians to all be given a chance for employment; especially university students who must all have their fair chance to get the experience they need and deserve.
• Traffic situation for eastern districts must be structured in a more feasible manner to alleviate children not having to wake up from 4 or 5 o’clock to get to private schools/public schools and to alleviate where we are not in heavy traffic both mornings and evenings.
• Cost-of-living (salaries must be kept in conjunction with rising inflation; and in the interim, minimum wage must be regulated on a higher scale as $6 is not feasible for anyone to have a decent family living environment in Cayman.
Top three constituency issues I intend to address if elected:
• Mini market to be available for NS residents to sell their produce, fresh fish, cooked meals while assisting persons who wish to do this, to get business licences.
• Identify an area where decent affordable homes can be built for those who wish to purchase a starter home as it is hard for our young to afford otherwise.
• To advocate and have implemented assistance domestically for all elderly persons in consideration that we have no senior citizens home in North Side where they can at least get day-care services.
The 3 top National Issues that I intend addressing if elected are.
▪ Education
▪ Cost of Living
▪ Development
