Technical Assistance.
2. The Control Officer for this visit will be Economic Officer John
Morgan, telephone number (876) 935-6028; Fax no. (876) 935-6029.
3. Post confirms that no additional assistance is required.
4. Visitors traveling to Jamaica for periods less than two weeks do

5. There has been no specific threat directed against official
