Navasky Anderson Snags Jamaica’s Final Medal at the Pan American Games

Jamaica’s rising middle-distance runner Navasky Anderson, ended the country’s campaign at the 19th Annual Pan American Games with a bronze medal in the men’s 800m. This marked a significant close to the event, showcasing Jamaica’s breadth of talent.

Anderson’s Bronze-Winning Run

On the final stretch of the Pan American Games, Navasky Anderson delivered a performance to remember, securing bronze in the 800m with a time of 1:46.40. Despite facing a setback with disqualification at the World Athletics Championships earlier in the year, Anderson bounced back, proving his mettle on the tracks of Santiago, Chile. Anderson was in good company on the podium, with Venezuela’s José Maita seizing gold in a swift 1:45.69, and Mexico’s Jesus Lopez taking silver with a close 1:46.04. This moment was a culmination of Anderson’s hard work and an indicator of his potential on the senior athletics circuit.

Resilience and Record-Breaking

Prior to his bronze in Santiago, Anderson had an impressive track record this year, which included breaking the Jamaican national record in the 800m. His time of 1:44.70 at the DC Track Championships not only shattered his own previous record but also secured his spot at the World Championships.

Jamaica’s Overall Performance

With Anderson’s contribution, Jamaica concluded the Pan American Games with a total of six medals: one gold and five bronze. This haul, though commendable, fell short of the nation’s 19-medal feat at the 2019 Games. Alongside Anderson’s bronze, Jamaica’s collection included a gold from 400m hurdler Jaheel Hyde, and bronze medals from cyclist Dahlia Palmer, discus throwers Samantha Hall and Fedrick Dacres, and wrestler Aaron Johnson. This years Pan American Games is a reminder of the continuous flow of athletic prowess Jamaica offers to the world stage.

Parish of Portland Marks Its 300th Anniversary

On Sunday, November 12, 2023, the Institute of Jamaica (IOJ) in partnership with the Tourism Product Development Company (TDPCo) will present the “Salute to the Parish of Portland” as part of the cultural heritage series, which began in 2016. The aim of the event is to highlight the national significance of each parish in Jamaica and the contributions each has made to the nation’s heritage and culture.

A Cultural Extravaganza

The event, which will take place at Titchfield High School in Port Antonio from 1 pm to 4 pm, will feature performances and entertainment by the Charles and Moore Town Maroons, the Titchfield High School Choir, and Manchioneal Cultural Group, and Bigga-5 Entertainment. There will also be arts and crafts booths, tasty foods, and exhibits that explore the history and identity of Portland Parish. The IOJ’s public relations manager, Jolyn Gayle, added that the event will also showcase natives of the parish who have made notable contributions to its agricultural, tourism, and creative sectors. The “Salute to the Parish of Portland” will be recorded and accessed at the IOJ’s website.

Participants and Partners

Gayle shared that some 16 booths have registered exhibits for the celebration, along with a number of cultural organizations. These include the African Caribbean Institute of Jamaica, the National Museum of Jamaica, the Natural History Museum of Jamaica, and cultural groups from Portland. Gayle also thanked the sponsoring partners. The director of TPDCo, Lionel Myrie, said that partnering with the IOJ to celebrate the 300th anniversary of Portland was a “welcome opportunity” and would show how tourism has had a positive impact on Jamaica. He described Portland as not only an important cultural asset but a valuable addition to Jamaica’s tourism industry. He noted that the parish was the first to introduce the “all-inclusive” concept at Frenchman’s Cove, and it was the first to establish a hotel that featured “modern amenities.”

About Portland, Jamaica

The parish of Portland is located on the northeast coast of Jamaica and is one of the island’s rural areas. It features a portion of the Blue Mountains and is home to the Maroon communities of Moore Town and Charles Town. Its natural attractions include Frenchman’s Cove, Boston Beach, and Blue Lagoon, which is believed to be the crater of an extinct volcano. Seventeen rivers form a watery network throughout the parish, and rafting the rivers is popular with tourists. Over 782 films have been hot in Portland since the 1950s, including “20,000 Leagues Under the Sea” and “They Harder They Come.” Scenes from other films, including “Cocktail” and “Lord of the Flies” were also shot in the parish. Superstar singer Rihanna filmed her “Man Down” video in locations throughout Portland in 2013.

The Institute of Jamaica

The Institute of Jamaica (IOJ) was established in 1879 by Governor Sir Anthony Musgrave with the mission to encourage literature, science, and the arts. As the premiere agency for culture in the country, it has transformed the nation via its projects and programs. Its “Salute” series has previously honored the Parishes of Westmoreland, St Ann, and St Mary.

The abuse, violence and killing of persons opposed to the Government, including, the assassination of Dr. Walter Rodney, a world-renowned historian and a black political leader, and Father Bernard Darke, a Jesuit priest;
The total mismanagement of Guyana’s economy from 1968 to 1992, leaving Guyana as the second poorest nation in the Western Hemisphere, second only to Haiti;
Widespread racial and ethnic discrimination between 1968 and 1992;
Rampant corruption, mismanagement and racial discrimination between 2015 to 2020;
30,000 Guyanese losing jobs between 2015 to 2020; and
Flagrant, multiple attempts to fraudulently alter the results to the March 2, 2020 General and Regional Elections in the presence of international observers and the diplomatic community.

The above list is not by any means exhaustive, but those are a few broad areas upon which we can commission a fact-finding mission by anyone who is interested in Guyana and its people’s welfare.
